I could see that the media in Scotland was skewed in favour of the Union when I was a Tory voter - at the time I felt it was simply because the Union was 'right' and therefore it was virtually impossible to report it as anything else. In 2014 some of the reporting was so skewed that it started to piss me off, I watched a debate or listened to an interview and then the subsequent report was so wide of the mark that it was almost a fabrication - it actually played a small part in me switching.

A bit like Sarah Smith (whatever happened to her?) telling us they focussed on devolved issues during a General Election debate because people didn't know the difference

Keir Starmer - with every post I'm reminded of another fucking w'nker who tried to stick the boot in Kier fucking Starmer ffs !!

I'm nightshift, Twitter is blocked

Kirstene Hair was personable - just thick as mince. And an advisor to Dougie Ross.

Chips!?

Which is obviously why the other inquiry was leaked.

Was sitting in the garden listening to Echoes live in Pompeii earlier this morning - fucking awesome Er ... Wish You Were Here Delicate Sound of Thunder Meddle The Wall (video only - with yon 'special effects')

I've changed my politics fairly recently (No/Tory -> Yes/SNP) and I'd be happy to change my vote again - I won't be changing it over any of this utter nonsense.

I assumed, possibly wrongly, that he might squeeze in via the List!? He was also showboating the other day about being the most recognisable opposition candidate - obviously a bit of a self own considering most people only know him for utterly cringeworthy telly.

Times poll projects 71 seat SNP majority:

Those most likely to be swayed by the Salmond thing are the same people not paying the slightest bit of interest in the thing.

A briefing the BBC interupt to air the views of opposition MSPs.

And bump again Pie and Bovril is 18 !!!

That one's now being reported as 50/50 apparently. More polls out tomorrow I believe so maybe a legitimate 'No' poll then.

39% Wales (and 53% Scotland )

And to top it all off she set the FM up for a top-corner finishing statement that looked even better following that incoherent ramble.
