A large portion of the current Scottish Conservative voter base are people who are opposed to Scottish independence rather than people who are genuinely Tories. I think a Conservative party in an independent Scotland would sink without trace when they don't have that carrot for the stupid people who think every election is a de facto independence referendum to vote for them. We appear to generally be a left-leaning country, and I do not see any right-of-centre party gaining much support.

I've been there. Absolutely spectacular place.

They're actually making Keir Starmer's Labour look like a desirable alternative. Which is some achievement.

I am not sure I ever celebrated a last minute winner quite like I celebrated Chris Martin's last minute winner.

It was Sunderland I think.

JRM's description of the Scottish Conservative Leader as "quite a lightweight figure" was some laugh tbh.

Could they seriously not find anyone for the position of PM who is not a complete fucking idiot?

Yep. Within the SNP membership and voter base, you have people from various positions on the political spectrum unified under the banner of Scottish Independence. Once that is achieved, there will be no reason for them to club together anymore. All of the branch office parties whose only policy is stopping independence would hopefully f**k off and allow some credible and legitimate parties to emerge with actual visions of how to take an independent Scotland forward. Apart from the Tories, they can all f**k off. I bet a Conservative Party in an independent Scotland would spend an eternity campaigning for a referendum on rejoining the UK.

The SNP will splinter once independence is achieved anyway.

The Rolling Stones - they must have done something right to still be selling out stadiums while most of their contemporaries are long dead/retired/forgotten, but I tried to listen to one of their albums years ago and did not even make it all the way through one listen. I might try that particular album again. Will let you know how far I make it this time. Much of the content of a lot of late 80s/90s hip hop has not aged well at all. Misogynistic and homophobic terms were being thrown around like Berti Vogts era Scotland caps. N.W.A. - considered by many to be one of the greatest ever hip-hop groups - used absolutely terrible language in their songs about women. Eminem - considered by many to be one of the greatest rappers of all time - released numerous derogatory and defamatory songs about various women in his life and was quite fond of throwing the homophobic F-word around.

Does he wear an eyepatch?

Who is Archer Dykes?

New Asylum map looks good.

Yes.

Maybe not.

Big Square Garden to get a hat trick.

I think I frightened him.

THE MOFF

I went to Asda last Thursday night and you'll never guess who was walking out as I was walking in.

They could have went to Kilmarnock. There's a Wimpys in the bowling alley.

I just realised why you have "fox" in your name. I thought you just liked foxes.

WHAT A FUCKING GOAL

He's Welsh.

WHAT A FUCKING STRIKE HARVEY BARNES

Maddison scores.
