The language used here by an existing Labour MP but also by the journalist is so sad

to constantly try and link the SNP to fascist movements of the 30's because they have the word national in their name is absurd, intentionally misleading, smear tactic politics and journalism

and so totally transparent in its intention

do they, both the politicians and media actually think this will work

why would anyone vote for someone who came out with this stuff

[Alibi]

Don't think many people are going to vote for them - and this sort of desperation isn't going to help them. Transparently a total fabrication. Does the SNP even have a "youth wing"? That MP should be getting his 4rse handed to him on a plate by the press.

Does the SNP even have a "youth wing"?

Yes - the Young Scots for Independence (YSI)

Aye, there are at least 37 folk under the age of 60 in the Scottish Tories.

I love the YSI and the YSI love me

That was certainly the case in my school, particularly two of my history teachers who were vocally anti-SNP and loathed having to teach what little Scottish history we got. I also had an ICT teacher who left the profession to go and work for the Lib Dems. Saying that, living in a leafy unionist suburban area it's not surprising .

I'm certain that I read on here of a case during the referendum where a Glasgow teacher who was a Tory candidate gave out unionist literature to his pupils ?

Mainstream politicians and media need to catch up with the fact that about half the country is already in the SNP/independence camp - cereal-eating husbands, wives, teenagers, partners and parents - normal everyday people who are all being targeted by all these fears and smears. There's no point trying to invent extremist demons in that camp which half the community simply won't recognise, or (if true) tolerate.

If you looked at McCann's posts on his website, you would see just below his attack on the SNP's influenece in schools, information about 3 different visits he himself had made to schools in his area. Not the brightest chap in the World I gather.

The Daily Nazi is (desperately) stirring up so much anti-SNP keech down here it's almost funny.

I've said it many times (aye, 'yawn'), but I vote Labour down here (and work for a Labour majority), and I genuinely look forward to an SNP/Labour coalition - a real one - after May.

I'm a socialist, so both centre-left parties, working in some form of loose alliance, suits me down to the ground.

Not living in Scotland, I see that if enough middle Englanders take the hump with that coalition, they will be only too pleased to rid themselves of the troublesome Scots - result, eh?
