Will you be voting in 2023 then?
I vote in every election I’m entitled to vote in, Zern.

What point? You offered two answers to points raised, ultimately closing that argument down. I was moving your closed debate on by asking for a compare and contrast on items raised in different manifestos. Which of course you deflected from with a charge of "whataboutery", in its own way, "whataboutery". But hey ho, there we are.
The point that the SNP falsely claim to have mandates for referenda on partition.
You, outrageously, shamefully, laughably and flippantly, responded with a response I’ve often seen from Nats:
’What about the Tories?!’

Absolutely. You were unable to answer the point, so went onto something else completely.

You need some background here. @WhiteRoseKillieis a super-smart and very capable poster with an undoubtedly big brain. That he is "emotionally invested in my posts" isn't a new observation, though, but is something which goes back a decade.
@WhiteRoseKilliejoined P&B simply to post about Rangers and, in the past ten years, has posted more about me and my team than he ever has about his own club. Indeed, he is the second-biggest contributor to the Big Rangers Thread after wur big pal, @bennett.
When, on one thread alone, you make almost 7,000 posts about Rangers/Rangers posters - yet purport to support Kilmarnock - then you have a massive problem.
In contrast, I post - overwhelmingly - about Rangers but have a side-gig of denigrating Natter Scotland in the sandbox part of the forum. This is normal and pretty healthy. So when @WhiteRoseKillieworries about my MH I have to ask who, actually, has the issue.
Certainly not me.
Very good points about the bold WRK.He seems to think making sweary and abusive posts adds weight to his arguments, but I’m afraid it doesn’t wash with me.
You’d think he’d be a bit happier considering Killie’s recent league triumph.

Do you think it's worse to put something in a manifesto that (if you're right) a Party doesn't have the power to decide, or putting in things that are clearly within the power of a Party such as these from the Conservatives? Or do both mean zero compared to reality?
We will not raise the rate of income tax, VAT or National Insurance.
Extra funding for the NHS, with 50,000 more nurses and 50 million more GP surgery appointments a year.

Things that they don't have the power to do in the first place. This is of course contested and we may have to go to court to find out but I don't believe Holyrood has the power to call a referendum on it's own back as that would directly impact the other nations in the union.
The SNP have previously campaigned on the premise of stopping Brexit which is something they never had the power to do but they got elected off the back of that campaign, I don't think that suddenly meant the SNP should have been able to halt the Westminster Brexit process as they never had the power to do what they were offering the people in the first place. Generally speaking manifestos don't mean much, just paper with false promises from every party.
I think winners of elections should of course be able to carry out everything they promise within their power but that doesn't even happen as it is so it's fanciful to imagine them carrying out things outwith their power.
This is the fault of the SNP being sleekit and campaigning on something they know they can't deliver which then leads to conversations like this and some people being aggrieved as they think it's unfair and undemocratic whereas the SNP know this before they start campaigning. I believe that's what strengthened the breakaway factions and Alba types as they're frustrated as they know Sturgeon is leading them up the garden path every year. They know she isn't able to deliver it like she says she can year after year but at the same time they don't really have any alternative to backing the SNP and hoping Westminster changes it's mind.
It is also possible to think that Westminster could do with reform and that Holyrood should have the power to hold referendums unilaterally but that's where I would disagree. It also must be acknowledged if you believe this that Sturgeon and the SNP themselves already know and believe this so are at least in some way being misleading about what they offer Scottish voters.
Great post.
Referendum powers lie with Parliament.. NOT Holyrood.
The SNP can keep claiming they have a mandate for another referendum all they like, but they don’t.
‘Why won’t Nicola tell us when wurr huvvun wurr reffarenndum?’
Answer - Because she doesn’t have the power to decide.
’But it wiz in ra manifestoe! We huv a mandate!’
Answer - Sorry to break the unfortunate news, but your manifesto means zero compared to reality.

And just look how in-touch the supporting cast is. Here is another glorious royal couple gifting the PM of Saint Lucia a signed photo of themselves, to remind him which family was chosen to reign over him and his. Isn’t this the very image of modernity?

I'm dragging you ito it as you greenied quite a few of Kincy's posts last night. I was interested in just how far your support for his views extends.
I do not need to put words in his mouth. He has repeatedly claimed that the treaty of union between Scotland & England "created in perpetuity in 1707, ticks all of the boxes of International Law and can't be set aside with impunity."
He has also specifically criticised "Dim David Cameron" for believing that the Acts of Union can be repealed without consulting with the rest of the UK electorate.
On the other hand, I agree (with practically everyone else )that Scottish Independence is a matter for the Scottish electorate.
I just wondered what you and your alter ego's views were. Are you willing to support Kincy's views, no matter how extreme and controversial a point he is putting across? From your reply above, I would suggest that you are!
Alter ego? Sorry, you’ve lost me.

Just now, WhiteRoseKillie said:
If anything, I'm concerned about the old boy's MH, and pointing out his inability to log off from here as a symptom - by quoting all, not part, of his subsequent posts. Hopefully he'll take note. His posting in recent weeks has followed a similar pattern, which in all honesty I find disturbing.
You and your multi-banned troll mate, on the other hand, are playing along to "win" some stupid game. The worst kind of poster.
Thanks for your insightful analysis.
You’re taking it all too seriously bud.

You should look into him, in fact there's a hilarious thread on the site that will fill in the blanks for you. Albeit you should be pre warned that the guy who started it and provided most of the posts on it had truly terrible patter and was prone to emotional breakdowns and the type of hissyfits normally associated with young teenagers. To the point his hysterics actually got him banned from an online forum.
What a VL! Amaright?
You are aff yer nut
Hopefully someone else knows what you're on about and you can continue the conversation with them.

I think he would have fit right in with his old school disciplinary methods towards people and in particular women who disagreed with him. Although there was a strong suspicion that he was actually gay so that might be a problem. Having said that his fans tend to be simpletons so the base messages would resonate with them.
ETA had to change the tense of a couple of things as he is after all, still very, very dead.
With all due respect, I have no idea what you're talking about

Oh, he's absolutely the very very worst example you'll find on here for those character defects, especially as, unlike say, oaksoft or Dawson Park Boy, he's (probably) actually serious when he posts his drivel. I'm beginning to feel uncomfortabler laughing, though - it feels too much like paying a shiny sixpence for a wander round Bedlam. Or, for the youngsters out there, mocking the tone-deaf burger-flippers* following their star in the early rounds of the x-factor.
*No offence intended, btw. Some people's future contains chart success, for others it's asking if the customer wants fries. The cúnts in this case are those who allow the latter to believe they are the former, and those who sit giggling at home.
You’re obviously emotionally invested in Kincardine’s posts.
Going through them, quoting different parts, then embarking on bitter rants isn’t healthy, buddy.
Just calm down a bit eh?

Yes. The Acts of Union are legal. I don't think anyone is arguing otherwise. However, only Kincy appears to be arguing that these acts are "perpetual", and cannot be repealed.
Direct question to Albus & Durie - do you agree with Kincy's view, or do you agree with the doctrine of Westminster supremacy i.e. that Westminster can repeal any previous act passed by that legislature?
If you are both here to debate in good faith, surely you can answer this one simple question?
I agree with the posts Kincardine has made, but offer no comment on your attempt to put words in his mouth.
He can speak for himself though, so I've no idea why you feel the need to drag me into it.
What I don't agree with is the nasty vitriol thrown at him by the usual suspects on a regular basis. Not by you personally, but it's still sad to see it accepted as the norm, flying in the face of Div's statement.

I like that you posted this "perma-raging" reference shortly before launching into a spamming frenzy of total rage over the following hours
As much as I enjoy laughing at your ever-frequent meltdowns you should genuinely consider getting some help. You're an absolute mess, which although funny probably isn't healthy.
Or don't, and keep being the object of everyone's derision.

This guy thinks that me and @Duries Air Freshener are the same poster for some strange unhinged reason and is now posting his evidence that I liked one of his posts and then wasn't on the thread at the same time or something.
This is a solid 8/10 for an utterly consumed by a football forum performance.
I actually feel sorry for the poor soul.

Can you just confirm that you think me and Durie are the same poster? Because that is actually hilarious. You think that one person is simultaneously pretending to be as you say "reasonable" and one an SFP fan? I'm 29 years old and I'm pretty sure Durie is a wee bit older. Sounds a bit far fetched to me.
I don't know the guy and I disagree with his views regarding that particular issue but some of you could seriously do with dialing down your paranoid aggression.
Literally every topic of discussion seems to end with personal attacks and weird conspiracy style rants.
I'm totally fine with people disagreeing with me and I usually enjoy reading other alternative opinions but this stuff is a bit too far gone for me.
Exactly, it's absolutely normal for people to disagree. I have friends of all persuasions who hold all sorts of views and we never fall out over it.
The cybernats on here are a real extreme breed though. Their nastiness is beyond the pale.

Is that how you excuse the racism and misogyny against women, Muslims and black people that your Twitter pals keep getting banned (or exposed in the papers) for?
Given who you’ve chosen to support and promote in the past, it appears you think that actual racism is A-OK but someone calling you a drunken c**t is not.
Buzzword central.
Surprised you didn't mention 'single motherphobia' again!

Since a majority of decent Britons eschewed partition in 2014 we've seen two things:
1. A regional administration in Embra becoming less competent yet more mendacious and 2. A dwindling thicket of thwarted grievance junkies becoming more partisan and more abusive.
With that backdrop I am - by any measure - a reasonable - and mild - contributor to the discussion.
'Grievance junkies' is an accurate way to describe the abusive, nasty partitionists we often see on here. Part of me feels sorry for them as they are products of an echo-chamber, but at the end of the day they still have their own free will.
I often feel there are deeper issues at play with regards to their behaviour.
When they aren't resorting to personal insults, they are stoking grievance. Boris, Westminster and 'Ra Toaries' are to blame for all society's ills, apparently.
It would actually be cruel to take away their grievance, in a strange way. It keeps them going.

Thanks, you two. Always playing the man.
No wonder the daft wee Nats running Holyrood get away with being so absolutely shite.
It's all they know, sadly.
Funny thing is, decent Nats DO exist, I am friends with plenty of them. The online type, especially those on here, tend to be a bit 'different' to say the least.
Their lack of awareness is astounding.

Opinion polling overestimated Le Pen’s support, just as I predicted.
I take comfort in the fact that France is heading in the right direction.

What laughable nonsense. "Mountains of paperwork" generated how exactly. What little paper correspondence still exists in offices is scanned and held on document management systems accessible from any device on their network in any location. Your constant made up shite is utterly tiresome.
As I've posted previously on the Covid thread all the govt depts and LAs I work with are NEVER returning to office bases. It's done, outdated and Covid simply provided the employers who had previously been very sceptical with the proof they needed that it works. WFH and hybrid working are here to stay and dinosaurs like yourself need to accept it.Can you not debate DPB’s points sensibly without resorting to nasty and childish name calling?
