I’d like to think the OG would be quite tolerant of the trans community given his similar stance towards maligned groups of the day. Nah he’d think they were complete fruitcakes like most folk do Link to comment

Clydeside_Sheep Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 AUOB marched in Glasgow today. Crowd estimates: AUOB: 5,000 Police: "hundreds" They had even made it a joint march with people angry about gaza, obviously neither group feels it can draw the numbers on its own. Link to comment

Remember though, "independence feels frustratingly close". Personally, it feels like it's not even being discussed anymore. There has been more focus on topics nowhere near the top of the list for your average voter, namely LGBTQ and the failed return deposit scheme, that I cannot think of any independent focused rhetoric coming from the SNP of late. As someone who believes Scotland should be an independent country, it's frustrating to witness the standard of politicians (throughout Parliament) at present and one thing is for sure, independence feels as far as way as it has been for decades.

It’s because all politics has become about individual people! No party leads the conversation. Look at last 4/5 FMQs all Toss from the Tories talks about is individual people not things that we need discussed. Same as PMQs! And they don’t have talk all country down. We actually just need a “Positive Party” to lead us. Towards independence Link to comment

Deputy FM, guess that was the price of her not standing for FM this time around. Good on Swinney taking her into the cabinet though, what is it they say, keep your friends close but your enemies closer? 1 Link to comment

The Gee Man Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Interesting that Swinney attacked a Tory for the way he posed his question but didn’t say anything to Harvie about the personal attacks on Kate. Shows he knows he still needs the green pact. ps I’m no Tory it’s not a defence of the poor wee soul Link to comment
Jocky Balboa Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Swinney is just a continuity candidate, who will oversee a controlled demolition of the SNP majority in the UK GE and 2016 elections. Then he'll sod off into the sunset with a golden handshake. You can forget about independence for the foreseeable, but I wonder if letting a unionist majority back in (both in the Scottish WM contingent and Holyrood) is what it needs, to not only focus minds among the independence support, but to remind the unconvinced and the apathetic just how little the 3 main Unionist parties give a damn about Scotland. I think Holyrood 2031 will be the decider for the independence movement. Link to comment

Has a go at anyone calling former FM's anything other than their names then goading, and failing, to get anyone to call John Swinney something derogatory so resort's to doing it himself.

Leave school, go to further education, no pay, support yourself, get a qualification and then a job and be expected to pay back cost of education Leave school, get an apprenticeship, get paid whilst getting training, get a qualification and then a job and not be expected to pay back cost of training Seem fair to you?
