TartanJon Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 First thing on the news last night,Cameron "The SNP",then Labour "The SNP" Their collective arses are collapsing at the thought of the uppity Jocks holding Westminster by the gonads. Personally I think we'll shit it again and nothing will change. I hope I'm wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishcumnock Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 They thought it was all over - it isn't now ! I personally think its brilliant the way the Unionist press are keeching themselves , man The lifeboats lords and bankers first . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robroysboy Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Even before the referendum result, I thought the Yes campaign would suffer a defeat. But I am convinced independence will come in my lifetime. Unfortunately it may take another tory and /or UKIP coalition government or the UK to leave the EU before we the 55% realise that they have been sold down the river. Patience is required, our day will come. Soar Alba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capital Saint Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Why do they keep referring to Alex Salmond? e.g. "You'll end up with a Labour/Alex Salmond coalition" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewelk Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Why do they keep referring to Alex Salmond? e.g. "You'll end up with a Labour/Alex Salmond coalition" Because his name still holds enough demon weight to scare people a bit. Labour/Angus Robertson coalition doesn't really carry the same fear factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Why do they keep referring to Alex Salmond? e.g. "You'll end up with a Labour/Alex Salmond coalition" A lot of folk I speak to seem to think he is called "That Alex Salmond". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robroysboy Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Why do they keep referring to Alex Salmond? e.g. "You'll end up with a Labour/Alex Salmond coalition" I think because he is standing for a westminster seat they seem to be obsessed with him.

Scunnered Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I think because he is standing for a westminster seat they seem to be obsessed with him. I had a look at 2 Facebook groups from the constituency, one was an SNP group and the other a lib dem group... It was feckin' frightening , sheer tribalism from both sides. If members of the opposing groups met each other in the street I'd fully expect them to start hurling their shite at each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishcumnock Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Pete wishart / ed miliband an absolutely great one sided argument there. Ed is a flunky script reading non-thinking politician , lost cause IMO . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) Scare story of the day resumes Scottish independence fears return as investment fund warns of 'extended uncertainty' http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/banksandfinance/investmenttrusts/11454748/Scottish-independence-fears-return-as-investment-fund-warns-of-extended-uncertainty.html Note it's headlined about Scottish independence. If you read the Guardian, it at least mentions fears over EU exit in event of a Conservative victory too http://www.theguardian.com/business/2015/mar/06/alliance-trust-warns-over-uk-election-and-scottish-independence Did the Telegraph mention that?

King Of Paisley Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Don't know if it had been mentioned, but in terms of the media there was an article the day after the last Ashcroft pools in the Daily Liecord titled 'How Labour Lost Scotland'. Signal perhaps that they are giving up the ghost on this election? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParisInAKilt Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 "We have already seen vile behaviour in the course of the Scottish referendum campaign, with insults flying, open hostility in the streets, and a nationalist mob braying outside the BBC in Glasgow. The mood in Scotland remains tense and ugly" Unreal. Had to stop there for my own sake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 One more "If, as many fear, the Scottish Nationalists take control of English affairs, that mood will turn to fury. Democracy is at stake" Said without any hint of inrony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Of Paisley Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Allan Massie - obviously Scotland's version of Max Hastings. Had to laugh at all the 'English bulldog is beginning to snarl' nonsense. Cleary a person who is bricking it at the thought of a Nationalist juggernaut heading his way. As PIAK says, no hint of irony in this piece. Clear forgetting (or probably just ignoring) the fact that Scotland consistently rejected Conservatism yet had our affairs dictated to us by Government for 18 years that we didn't vote for and loathed with a passion. The boot is clearly on the other foot now, and they can't stomach it. No doubt the right-wing, metropolitan bastards from Surrey will no doubt be crying foul on the Comments bit sooner rather than later.

Orraloon Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I can see the possibility of a second question being added to the in out EU referendum. Should the UK leave the EU? While we are at it, should we also tell those horrible Jock bastards to fuk off as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Doesn't anyone in the media stop for a second and realise they are part of the problem, writing articles like this is only going to increase the supposed tension between both sides. The lack of self awareness is staggering or maybe it's very deliberate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
