I recommend people go have a read of the indyref2 thread from moment the Alex Salmond accusations first were reported. Go read the pages after it and you see the same characters posting that you see now. Your first post on it was an absolute belter knowing what we know now. Let's not forget... I'm just a few pages in... it is riveting. Edited October 10, 2020 by thplinth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible to keep an open mind on Sturgeon, as it was for Salmond. Edited October 10, 2020 by exile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably is a wee bit unfair, but I guess we’ll see. I still think that outside the people who are interested in these things, not many people have a clue who the people you mentioned are. Also, how on earth was it not possible to spot that Mackay was - how shall I phrase this - a bit eccentric? I suppose they’re politicians right enough, so it takes something to stand out, but come on! How much resource do they put towards vetting potential candidates? Anyway, that’s me done my politics thread for the year unless there are any decent bets anywhere.

hampden_loon2878 Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) If sturgeon stepped aside, she could do so and leave little damage, she could step aside saying she “wants to focus on covid” and be a covid minister or some shite like that, it would give us time to replace her with a “less damaged” FM and keep us on track,, i would go for katie forbes, a good christian quine who is a wary of the woke brigade Edited October 13, 2020 by hampden_loon2878 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapofGlencoe Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I'm wanting the whole Salmond saga out in the open as much as anyone but if people think Sturgeon is "damaged" at this precise moment they're letting themselves get carried away by biased media. If scandal is to come, then so be it. We'll see the consequences. She's got popularity ratings through the roof amongst many that are not even SNP supporters. Unionist commentators are livid at her popularity and the cause that goes with it. Voicing that Sturgeon is a unionist plant would be ridiculed by the vast majority of people out there and rightly so. There is probably a substantial minority starting to fret about the covid restrictions and her popularity will be tested by this in the coming months, no doubt.

And we shouldn't forget that a sizeable chunk of the population would have been quite happy to see Alex go jail, even though he wasn't guilty.

kumnio Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I dont know if loon is at the windup or not, I suspect not. But the woke fuckwit cunts are a massive liability IMO, and probably make up a tiny percentage of members. On twitter theres a number of them always being utter tits about trans rights, female rights, BLM pish and anything else that they think is cool. Their behaviour is atrocious, Ive said many times that the far left and far right are closer in behaviour and attitudes towards those outwit their mindset, than they admit. The vast majority of normal centre or centre left people would be ashamed of these people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I dont think religion should come into it. Over half the people in Scotland have no religion, and those who are Christians are split into different identifications. Nor do I think people who call themselves Christians are always good people. I dont mean Kate Forbes, I just mean some folk who define themselves as christians are not always as charitable as the term suggests.
