Was a little tongue-in-cheek quip. The main point of that post was to show the Nat reaction to taking the GRR case to court. Here we have Humza defending his action, "Regardless of what you think of the GRR Bill".
It's sad that - after a hate-fuelled, rabble-rousing narcissist was ousted as FM - we now have the new FM following the same tactics.
That's what you get when you vote for "the continuity candidate"

So any preference between these shits is negligible. It comes down to whether you think a Tory win will further damage that party (ideally permanently) or whether you think an amoral nothing like Starmer is worth having (or not) because the right-wing lurch he’ll encourage in UK politics won’t last. (My feeling is that it will last; if Starmer can claim a victory by chasing far-right votes, it’ll shape Labour tactics for the future - and the problem is that by pandering to the right, you only enable the extremists to make greater demands.)
Totally agree.
It's degenerated into two cheeks of the WM arsehole.

He’s the dreaded centrist in a lot of ways. Has certainly voted Johnson before but whether it was over Livingstone for mayor or Corbyn for PM I can’t remember
He did vote for Johnson for the London mayor gig, but is always the first to admit that was a terrible mistake, and he's being doing his level best to crucify him (and the Tories in general) ever since.

It’s no surprise ICTJohnboy thinks this given he is one of the biggest James O’brien fanboys on here. People like this have never suffered the worst effects of years of austerity and decades of neoliberalism.
Is O'Brien a Tory fanboy?

I'll always find it baffling how some apparantly progressive thinkers get so upset over the idea of Labour winning a general election over the literal Conservative party.
I appreciate this place seems to be very pro SNP and pro Indy but even if that is your ultimate goal surely you would much prefer Starmer to Sunak at this point even if you do think that he's isn't as progressive as you'd like him to be.
You mean Starmer, the man who campaigned so vociferously against Brexit and is now the country's biggest defender and supporter of that unmitigated disaster.
And we all know why....

There's no "turning into" about it.
Here's Lisa Nancy complaining about the level of discourse from 2020
Yes, a fine example there of how to raise the standards of debate in this country!

I am no Labour fan, but..........
Yes, controversial I know!
BUT... I also feel there's a better prospect of more votes for the SNP under a Tory govt.

Never thought I'd hear myself saying this in my lifetime but I'm getting close to a stage where I'd actually prefer the Tories to win the GE.
Keef and his cohorts are turning into a bunch of obnoxious pratts.

It’s a known fact that Salmond gave Sturgeon this advice and that she then pretty much closed the door on him. As soon as she became first minister she then completely froze him out. The clique she built around herself and Murrell then hated Salmond and saw him as a threat.
The trouble started with him telling her Murrell should go and when Salmond started planning a comeback crack at Mark McDonald’s seat after she threw him under a combine harvester they began their plot against him.
This is common knowledge.
it is astonishing watching people still refusing to face the truth regarding Nicola Sturgeon.
Common knowledge?
So presumably you can back this up with press reports/accounts?

Lucy Powell making herself look stupid on Breakfast time. Time presenters stated either answer the question or we stop the interview. I know this will never happen but it would be good to see and we might hear less piss been spouted.
Nagger Munchety once terminated an interview with Ian Blackford because he referred to Boris Johnson as "a madman"
Wtf was wrong with that?

You're arguing with Dawson Park Boy.
You could start a thread on haemorrhoids and he'd claim to have always loved his Chalfonts.
Greenie awarded, not just for your choice of words, but some excellent spelling there too!

You've managed to get Donald Fucking Trump off the news headlines.

If any political party benefits from this mess it won’t be Alba.
I'm not a supporter but I don't believe recent events will do them any harm.

It’s pretty funny reading some of they Alba clowns
They genuinely believe the SNP is on the verge of collapse over the Gender Recognition bill and Alba will be the party who will replace them
Hmm......

This must be the greatest media non-event of all time.
He's appeared in court. He's been fingerprinted. The charges have been read out to him. He's pleaded not guilty in a loud clear voice. He's now heading back to Florida.
Does anyone give a flying f**k?

Good to see that England have found someone to blame for the teachers strike.

I see Yousaf is not too pleased with Allan Dorrans voting with the Tories to limit Margaret Ferrier’s recommended suspension to 9 days. Fortunately he was on the losing side.
I’m assuming the Dorrans’ guy is not the sharpest tool in the box.
Isn't this all about the Tories trying to avoid a by-election in BoJo's Uxbridge seat?
Hard to figure out what was on Dorran's mind.

heard him answer a question on radio and it was the usual rambling repeating mess, early days but no change so far in him
I must admit I only heard the the first 2 questions, and rambling, repeating mess is exactly what it was.
Hard to see how it will get any better.
