Scottish Politics / Independence - Vol 12

Only after a full and frank public confession as per the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission. To include any and all dodgy acts carried out by anyone else in the SNP which he has any knowledge of. Leave anything out or get caught in a lie and full sentence served. It will never happen.

Useless is much better than you lot are portraying. He is absolutely brilliant at attracting family/friends/colleagues who are awaiting trial.

Just like all the other virtue signalling eco pish they come out with its not been properly researched or proved to work.

Useless wants to introduce 20mph speed limits across Scotland at a cost of £45 million no doubt 'encouraged' by Harvie and Slater.

Meanwhile in Wales, where the same limit has already been introduced, the Welsh Govt is backpedalling, following a 500,000 petition to the Senedd to abolish it, and it looks like around half the roads will revert to 30mph.

Sky rolling script tonight.

As one comment says, "Before he's voted out, he seems to be on a mission to make life as miserable as possible for the people of Scotland."

I've just read that very article. Depressing.

If that's the case then the SNP can take some credit for the resultant increase in Whisky sales.

Correct, for once.

Surprised at the complete absence of Burger, Strocky, Deadslow et al from the thread these days, (well not really ), have to say though
it would be great to hear from them again, c'mon guys add a bit of debate to the gloaters echo chamber, it's a bit staid without you.

Harvie must stay!!! My liver couldn't take it if he flounced off so soon after Mr Sturgeon being charged.

Reducing greenhouse emissions vs reducing your £99k annual salary - understandably difficult decision to make.

While I'm not in the least bit in favour of the current SNP/Green clown show, one thing I can agree with Harvie on is his position on the Bute House agreement. Greens have two options. 1) make a noise, get in a huff, exit the agreement and step out of government, or 2) make a noise, get in a huff but swallow their pride and accept that they are a minority partner, can't have it all their own way and play the long game.

It's all too familiar to the Conservative / Lib Dem coalition. The Lib Dems picked option 1, flounced on the principles, their voters abandoned them and they evaporated into irrelevant white noise. Greens in Scotland are a real risk of doing the same. That might be a good thing, but Harvie is right that option 2 is the only way they have any hope of having any actual influence, but they do have to accept they aren't in charge. I can't see them seeing that logic though.

Having said that, if they chose option 1, flounced and evaporated... I wouldn't miss them.
