daytripping Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 You had a vote, stop whinging because you lost, tedious now. In boris we trust, one would hope he'd never allow a vote. What would even happen if yes won, could we have a best of three a few years later and rejoin the union when it turns into a shambles. They've actually put a 29 year in charge of finance, a lassie not that long out of university studying history, had a summer job in a bank, how long do you think before the money runs out.

"The Scotch – what a verminous race!"; "It’s time Hadrian’s Wall was refortified, to pen them in a ghetto on the other side"; "The nation deserves not merely isolation, but comprehensive extermination". Any Scotsman reading the above statement from Tory boy and still supports him needs help. I rest my case. #indyref2 1 Link to comment

Lencarl Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 8 minutes ago, Parklife said: Can't mind but it was published by the prime minister of the UK. According to Business Insider, a satirical poem published in The Spectator when Johnson was editor described Scottish people as "a verminous race" who should be exterminated. The poem, which has since been removed from the magazine's archive, was written by its then staffer James Michie. It described Scots as "tartan dwarves" who were "polluting our stock" and suggested that the country should be turned into a "ghetto" with the inhabitants submitted for "extermination." Obviously Johnson didn’t write this himself, but at the time the poem was described by Maureen Fraser, director of the Commission for Racial Equality in Scotland, as "very offensive and the language is deeply inflammatory..." Tory boy Johnson may not have said it but he certainly condoned the article. 1 Link to comment
Jocky Balboa Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Hopefully the fallout from the FM's impending downfall won't impact the growing momentum, but while I feel the public support will hold, we are still (legally speaking) no further forward to a referendum than we were in 2016. Of course, this could all have been clarified by now, if Krankie MacMerkel hadn't squandered three and a half years trying to "stop Brexit!" at a UK level and got on with the task of renewing the case for independence. As a side note, I see she and the SNP happy clappers continue to ignore the 35-40% of their supporters who backed Leave, mostly for very democratic reasons (i.e. the EEA/EFTA alternatives are pragmatic, given rUK will be our biggest trading partner post-indy). Take them for granted and/or tie independence directly to EU membership, when they should be separate issues, and we'll lose again. Persist with MacWoke nonsense like the GRA and Hate Crime Bill, and we'll likely lose again. Link to comment

Jocky Balboa Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Looking at it more generally, I accept the "material change in circumstances" mooted in the 2016 manifesto gives Scotland a democratic mandate for Indyref2, but I am not sure we can claim the moral high ground, especially when many Remainers (both YES and NO) claim faux surprise and/or outrage over Brexit. They were well warned in the run-up to 2014 that Miliband would not be PM and that Cameron, as the price to pay for being propped up by tactical UKIP voters, would concede an EU referendum... which, given the mood in England, would likely only be going one way. I'm sorry, but those who voted NO believing it was the only way Scotland could "Remain" simply weren't paying attention. Poll after poll showed UKIP on 17-20% and it was obvious that, in the event of a possible hung parliament and faced with a FPTP system that could only see one of two parties winning, they would always plump for the one most likely to deliver their ultimate goal and that was Cameron. They were warned. Link to comment

For Fecks Sake Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Independence will happen in my opinion, and i hope it leads to a step change in political parties in Scotland thereafter. But remember the public will still moan like fuck, complain about lack of services, levels of taxes etc while politicians will still continue to either lie, evade answering a question and make promises they cannot keep and be involved with scandals etc. While it will indeed give us our "Freedom", it will probably also leave a fair amount of folk disillusioned as fundamentally not much will change for the average person on the street. 1 1 Link to comment
Jocky Balboa Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 FFS, good point. Personally, I'm concerned at the increasingly authoritarian streak of the SNP leadership and their more vehement followers. While I suspect there will be an inevitable realignment of political lines after independence, party and ideological, a lot of independence supporters are very, for want of a better word, forgiving of the party's nasty side. This is no better than Unionists who are only too happy to see Scotland governed by a party that hasn't won an election here since 1955 and never will again, and/or condone the dog whistle sectarian tripe of the hard Tory right, UKIP and DUP elements.
