Aberdeen and shire are historically Liberal/Tory voters (big farming communities) history can no longer be counted on to predict the outcome. I disagree that the Tories gave the SNP a shiner at the last GE as it was a Brexit election with Labour telling their voters to vote Tory, this time I think both Labour and Tory will have a bloody nose. The LibDems (who?) may fare better this time. Sir Ian Wood - ha, he's the tvat that spent his career as a service provider raping the oil companies and workers, pocketing the proceeds and is now an authority on all things oil and gas FFS
aye, its v,fasionable to call disagreeing hate these days, and the old anti english thing too. superb. have a sticker. it must be my poor grammer that hides the fact that i am probably more of a lib/con mindset than it appears.
yes, but some bits are more uk than others. ask a northern monkey as you guys call them how well they do out of the uk dividend.
not really. isn’t this GE an opportunity to ‘send a message’ to politicians, voting for the same old people won’t.
The snp can't play the game they played last time of one minute wording things in a way that made it look like indi 2 was their campaign and the next denying they were doing it in case it upset the previous indi vote voters to stay. This time they have a difficult path to walk but in a way that most can see. If their drive is vote snp because we will give you indi 2 with a view to joining the eu in some form in the future then there is a level of honesty the voters north of the wall would appreciate. I suspect they won't as they know the interim period based on there last way forward document is an awful mish mash of unresolved's from the last decade and with no answers other than all sides will help us out. If we have learned anything from brexit it is that you become two very different sides very quickly so in Scotlands case , negotiations to leave the U.K. would not give them everything they are promising and what they do get, you can be sure the eu will be looking at what share of the divorce settlement they can take away from Scotland for eu membership?
What does despise mean? despise, contemn, scorn, disdain mean to regard as unworthy of one's notice or consideration. despise may suggest an emotional response ranging from strong dislike to loathing.
Things always get done!! not always as promised in the election campaign, it's just a matter of sifting through the promises and making your own mind up as to what is bullsh*t and what is doable, pick the party that offers realistic policies that suit your hopes and go for it. Your vote counts and anyone that doesn't vote cant complain afterwards.
Fin, I think it serves your purpose to think of me as a frothing at the mouth raging Englishman against the Scots, nothing could be further from the truth. The snp in the 2017 ge were deliberately ambiguous in the way Labour have been over brexit. They let their hardest supporters think they were going to get something they never were and possible floating voters to believe it's not as hard as the die hards said it needed to be. This cost them a third of their mps in westminster Now before you start , again ALL parties do this, and all parties take a hit in one way or another. As to your question , that is as has often been, my honest opinion
i dont think you do. i think it just suits yer Cummings aproach to everything political. you are uk politics personified. the genneral feel from aberdeen last night. https://twitter.com/bbcdebatenight/status/118967392898326 . https://twitter.com/bbcdebatenight/status/1189674781551058944
