  1. I did post a while back that my mates sisters first civil service job was EU related and it was abundantly clear Davis had no clue as to how the EU actually worked. Hes a trougher always has been.
  2. Im not saying 100% hes a coke head, maybe he’s on strong painkillers or something (giving a tory the benefit of the doubt sticks in my craw) but the way he acts and appears is not normal even by tory standards.
  3. I might have known i’d get grief from you when I mentioned not drinking.
  4. Ive worked with people in impoverished backgrounds all over the West of Scotland and in particular Govanhill, can honestly say the shite posted by the right wing about it is no where near accurate. There are considerably worse areas of Glasgow than Govanhill. However travelling around the west with junior football I’ve encountered some absolute shite holes that make Saracen look like Beverly Hills, these tend to be ex-mining towns in Ayrshire, Auchinleck, Dalmellington etc. Airdrie is also an absolute shitehole of a place, parts of west lothian are utterly horrific.
  5. Ok, so tomorrow there is a works evening out (im on annual leave currently) for one of the guys who’s emigrating. He’s a decent enough guy but my issue is im the only boss down to go (the others have excuses) and being new to the office I dont really know any of them, I dont drink (have to drive anyway) and don’t want them thinking im there to take notes etc. I was thinking about going buying them a round and leaving after an hour or so. Do you all think this is alright? That way I show face, get a round in and leave them to get on with it. Or should I just not bother going?
  6. He is clearly on something. Im absolutely certain of it.
  7. Whats the chances of the SNP agreeing to back a brexit lite in exchange for indy 2?
  8. Cant help but think Corbyn has truly consigned himself to insignificance for all time.
  9. Aye Harvie is very clearly sitting on the fence......
  10. Absolutely cringing for you. Pure roaster patter at its finest. Tell me is there some sort of right wing knuckle dragger school where you all learn this stuff? Or do you just swap crayon coloured notes about what to do?
  11. Anyway, if a second EU referendum returns a remain vote Indy2 would be dead in the water imo.
  12. I read this as ‘if you take out the most accurate polling company Labour are doing fine’.
  13. At most £300 for her an assistants given she frequently travels down on easy jet. A face to face meeting at this time is essential. Straw clutching pish from you. Project fear lives.
  14. Of course he should be, but he should also be entitled to a fair trial and not a media assassination. That said he could have taken the measures he had in a much lower key way. I still think he won’t be charged. I may be wrong, but how much of an investigation could there be, times passed so no dna evidence, from the narrative there is only one witness so no corroboration unless he makes admissions etc. I don’t see what the delay is, they will either have a positive line of enquiry or not.
  15. Yeh they just don’t do fine dining. If you look at the trip advisor best restaurants in many US cities its horrible chain places, even the ‘fancy’ places are chains. New York and Washington have decent enough food scenes but besides bbq in texas and san fran/la the entire country is a food cultural vacuum.
  16. Law changed this year, you used to have people being detained under sec 14 of the criminal procedure Scotland act, for 6-12 hours for questioning etc, you can now be arrested under suspicion of committing an offence under sec 1 of the criminal justice reform act (or something, cant remember the exact name of the new law, been a while since I looked at a law book). My friend who’s a lawyer suggests its pretty similar to the old way.
  17. Yes why did the first minister meet with her predecessor and mentor on several occasions? Dont get me wrong my respect for Salmond has eroded greatly but I sincerely do not think Sturgeon is complicit in any wrong doing here.
  18. Dont worry about it mate, the bet was for it being passed back in December! Have a pint instead!
  19. So the day has finally arrived when we can hand on heart say to the mods to delete the ‘slowly becoming’ part of this thread title. I mean its been a farce for ages but its confirmed after tonight.
  20. Americans are shallow and dont look beyond the surface, nice soundbite and they are happy.
  21. Harris has potential, ive been tipping her for a couple years since Trump and her were elected on the same day.
  22. Ive got to disagree with my Bankie friend on here, that the SJFA has engaged in anything other than a reactionary attempt at self preservation is nonsense. The ERSJFA should bolt on to the bottom of the EOSL. I think LL2 has an outside chance, but I think it’s likely the powers that be will force the sjfa move through.
  23. Im baffled as to why they went down the BOP route and not stalking, maybe its the sentencing or something. Regardless thats a great result, he’s remanded so can’t do any harm.
  24. What a crock of utter shite. PC gone mad mouth foaming shite.
