  4. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a second referendum on 1. Remain in EU or 2. Full Brexit.

  5. Table a motion in parliament to Remain in EU WITHOUT a referendum.

  6. I don't know or I don't care anymore

Results are only viewable after voting.
  1. see, this is how it works. was it holyrood or westminster? if it was westminster, its your voting system, the SNP promote PR.
    if it was hollyrood? yer wrong.
     
  2. who do they work for, and how much effort has the BBC, the MSM ect put in to discrediting online sites.

  3. actually fin it was the 2017 general election, using the rules the snp are happy with to use to get mp's

    Party Seats (change) 2017 vote share Share change 2017 votes Vote change
    SNP
    35 (-21) 36.9% -13.1 977,569 -476,867
    Conservatives 13 (+12) 28.6% +13.7 757,949 +323,852
    Labour 7 (+6) 27.1% +2.8 717,007 +9,860

    The trouble Alan with people like fin and port, is that any single thing that shows their party not in the way they want it too be seen, then everyone else is the msm or in the paid employ of the msm which simply is not the case

    As long as the tin hat is on, you will never change their view
     
  4. I sometimes listen to Radio 4 in the mornings going to work, some of the interviews are bordering on embarrassing - trying to get the interviewee to say what the BBC want them to say during the interview.

  5. I'd rather politicians are treated like that than let them waffle on saying the absolute square root of fuck all, time and again.
     
  6. Yes, I agree when they are trying to get an answer from a politician, it's more when they interview 'experts'.
     
  7. I think we can all be guilty of being 'blinkered' about some issue - particularly politics.

  11. Definition of "Expert".........................."Ex" = 'has been'................."Spurt" = 'drip under pressure" :)

  12. which doesent mention the big drop in turn out. out of a drop of 500,000. only 40,000 went to other ununist/brexit suporting partys. the proffesional liar will go to great lenghts to say thats because of a drop in support for indI because they are, thee single issue party.
    that is the proffesional lie.
    the impartial will say, low turn outs are the norm in scotland. then go on to explain way. many scots will rightly say, Govs are elected in the south, whats the point.
    its because the 2017 election was not about indi for the SNP. there will be no mention that they had not long won the biggest constuancy vote in the history of the scottish parliment and had just won the majority of council seats. the tory campaign, along with every election ruth has ever run in was soley run on No to another Reff. thats all they ever talk about. or of the labour leader advising their voters to vote tory in seats labour couldnt win.
    so, if you use the proffesional liar's methodology, and seeing as that is their only policy, only 11% of scotland want to be part of the union.

  13. With respect fin, that ^^ is little more than word soup.

    The results on the day are the results and using your own standard that you seem unhappy with
    "its been about securing a majority not unity. by any means possible. a majority being about 30-35%."
    It seems you are happy with it at 36.9% as long as it's the snp doing it
     
  14. if thats what your lot want to keep, then thats what has to be used.

  15. No-deal Brexit now 'assumed' by government, says Gove https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49141375

    Wasn’t it Gove that stopped Johnson becoming PM when Cameron left.

    I think to this lot it’s just some sort of game, that happens to make them money.

  16. True Sophie, greed is a terrible thing, crux of the situation is bud we keep allowing them to do it by voting them in. Simples.

  17. What’s the alternative though, don’t play their game (no one vote) ?
     
  18. Wouldn’t it be fun if we had a 0% turn out at an election? :)
