exile Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I dunno mate, I'm a west-ender.

King Of Paisley Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Wouldn't trust Clegg or Crichton as far as I could throw them. Will never forgive that vile rag for the lies and their screeching about The Vow that was peddled by their big pal that is the Fife pension thief. Utter pondlife.

King Of Paisley Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Clyde1998 - pardon me for my ignorance with regards the Scottish Parliament, but if the SNP have 72 seats vs Labour's 28, how does the majority of 7 come into play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamntg Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Clyde1998 - pardon me for my ignorance with regards the Scottish Parliament, but if the SNP have 72 seats vs Labour's 28, how does the majority of 7 come into play? You'd measure the number of SNP seats against all other parties combined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Of Paisley Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Can see now the way devolution was meant to be set up in terms of one party NOT getting an overall majority in the manner that you get with the FPTP system you get with Westminster.

Toepoke Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Are the Record moving towards the SNP? I've noticed some Sturgeon-friendly headlines recently. Probably more down to declining circulation though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Endell Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Isn't that Cathcart, seat of the last Glasgow Tory MP, Teddy Taylor, who was shadow Scottish secretary right up until being booted out as his party took power in Westminster? Was Hillhead not the seat of the last Glasgow Tory MP (until 1982)?Newlands (most of it anyway) was in Glasgow Govan, not Cathcart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Endell Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 It was Hillhead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Of Paisley Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Hillhead was Roy Jenkins, Charlie. Until the locals took leave of their senses and voted for the crook that was Galloway, even at the height of the fraudulent War On Want malarkey.

Until the locals took leave of their senses and voted for the crook that was Galloway, even at the height of the fraudulent War On Want malarkey.Yes, I knew that. It was Conservative up until the 1982 by-election, which I remember well. The great Teddy lost his seat in 1979.
