Cast - Live In Alloa

love that era and music..... would love to see Shed7 sometime soon. For some reason though I developed an irrational dislike of Cast - always seemed like whiney, annoying and irrelevant music... -
Leaked Memo

surely if parliament took the view that lying was unbecoming of such a position and suspended him for 21 days he could be recalled on petition by his constituents ? -
so we had to vote No to get her to stay and we voted No but she's going anyway ?

Any Mechanics On Here?
UPROAR replied to jenblueeyes's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
it was mandatory when I lived in Germany and I think it should be here too.... its not that big an outlay, most people keep a cheap set of second wheels with winter tyres... you've got the initial outlay but over the typical life of a car its not extra, they take twice as long to wear out... and any wear gets noticed when they are changed, not when you slide into a lamppost in January.... -
Independent Labour Party

They all took a step right.... we stayed roughly where we were. Apart from geopolitics you have to remember only the U.S. and the UK value MBAs highly, Miliband was at Harvard, the main parties are stuffed full of Republican and Democrat strategists and analysts. Our politics, media and our world view is slowly converging with the U.S. Scotland's is not. -

Full Fiscal Autonomy
UPROAR replied to Larky Masher's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
we want it, we want it now - the reason Hosie et al were trying to slow down expectations was that they dont want to get rushed into negotiations and fecked over by the Tories....... To do it properly it requires maybe 5-10 years of careful transfer. We can't afford to destabilise the English economy and they can't afford to destabilise ours - we depend on each other for trade too much. I once worked for a corporation who were spun off and left with a huge debt burden which caused them to sink slowly over time. This can't be allowed to happen to us... However we want it, we want it soon. We want it through a professional and careful transfer of powers. Remember our ongoing net investment in London is an ongoing de-investment in our own economy. Debt is effectively irrelevant as an argument - we have debt now and we will have debt when we change. There is no magic formula which means someone else pays our debts as part of the UK now - we (imo) pay more share than we got to invest here anyway... One of the real benefits is to move all the jobs and institutions from London to Scotland, this has a cost and will take time - you can't do this stuff overnight and thats why caution is best... -

Id like to see the current SLAB reorganise itself as a independent labour party in Scotland. Their forced focus on Holyrood plus the increased powers would take them eventually to support indy with a wee detour through full devo.... -

Trinity Mirror has strong links with the Labour Party in London and the position of the Record is directed from there. Simon Fox and many others regulars at Labour party functions and strategy meetings. They will be fighting a 'strong rearguard action' against the SNP from there... -

SNP won't touch being in government with a sh!tty stick... who the hell would want to be that unpopular... As I said about 6 months ago. Tories will be biggest party and if SNP get more than 40 seats they will offer devo max except VAT, defence and foreign policy in return for them baling out of WM.... -
