[What is the point of labour ?]

It doesn't.

Haven't read it in a while but private eye had monthly stories about the revolving door between the big four and HMRC. Maybe they aren't directly writing it but not far off.

Because of the tariffs which will apply in a No Deal Brexit.
Will all our fisherman still vote Tory in the next GE, and still vote to remain in Indyref2?

"all our fishermen" by then will barely fill a dingy

[Oor Nicola Sturgeon thread.]

 
Shite like this is, the capitulation on the GRA and the laughable 'climate emergency' is why I would struggle to vote for the SNP as it stands. Think the Greens have my vote for the foreseeable.

SNP like, I suppose, every party that has been in power as long as they have, seem to have becoming increasingly timid, unambitious and desperate not to rock the boat. Not exactly the prospectus that will inspire a Yes vote

Quote

How will you get a deal agreed with the EU?

First, I'll negotiate a full stop to the backstop - a guarantee it can never be permanent.

Second, I'll secure a Union Guarantee in international law so that our United Kingdom cannot be undermined.

Third, I'll secure a Canada-style Free Trade Agreement which takes back control of our laws, borders and money.

If the brexit party can't win in Peterborough in these circumstances can they win anywhere?
All very well winning a pr election but not much evidence that they can break the FPTP system.

It's far easier to moan on here and twitter. At a guess.
And Aberdeen fans like nothing more than moaning while doing nothing.

Chris Cadden is out of contract so Motherwell can sing for it. Would probably be a case of a tribunal as happened with Ferguson.

 

I’d imagine it’s fairly likely since McInnes likes players he knows.

 

 

Finally the club are doing something about the atmosphere at Pittodrie

Apparently multiple scandals in Sunderland. They're losing about 20% across the board to everyone. UKIP, Tory, lib dem and green all gains

[Polling: 2017 General Election, Council Elections and Independence]

By election in Dundee City Council as well.

Was held by Labour. Would think that the SNP should win it. I've been chapped on my door twice today by the SNP and had a phone call from Shona Robison. They were round twice last week as well.

Sure I read SNP have never had less than 50% in this ward so would be a major shock if they didn't

[Polling: 2017 General Election, Council Elections and Independence]

I presume there is no brexit party standing in the councils?

Or, and no laughing at the back, are ChangeUKTheIndependentGroup

[General Politics Thread]

Still an MP till the election, and could stand for Brexit. Wouldn't put it past her. The 10% requirement seems a bit low though, how many MPs could pass that threshold?

28% signed the petition in this case
