The amount of people texting while driving seems to be higher than ever

sounds like something from TV in the 70s 80s e.g Starsky and Hutch or Dukes of Hazzard

yeah I think thats whats coming

yeah its an impossible situation. My guess is Israel will over the next year will slowly destroy most of Hamas with ofcourse large civilian casualties, once thats done they might say they will enter talks but ofcourse the Palestinians most likely wont after receiving that

yeah I understand that but that still deosnt take away the fact that everything they are doing, pushes what they want further away

again no argument there but hamas wont be involved or be a part of any solution, they wont speed it up

I thought it would be shite but its no bad

No argument there but Hamas treat their own people like shite, women especially. Even if Palestine happened tomorrow, under Hamas women and anyone with different views LGBT for example wont be free. Thats on top of the fact that whenever a 2 state solution is closer than normal either Hamas or right wing israelis feck it up. Palestinians deserve far better.

how long does a horse and cart take to cover that distance?

Its a conspiracy theory but has just enough to make it belivable, hamas always feck it up for Palestine

your right that it seems to only apply to the SNP as the moment and not the tories, though hopefully that will change. It does show a complete lack of awareness by the SNP , its pretty simple to keep the books. Knowing any slip up will be pulled up shows them up even more for doing it. A 2 bit show really

What are the secret oil fields in the clyde, is that some conspiracy stuff?

Im not sure they will wake up, they are a shambles and deluded.

Labour must love the excuses that always come for SNP, the best thing for them is the SNP carrying on as is

There will be all sorts of reasons given why but its obvious and people have been saying it for ages now. The snp lost its way, it hasnt governed well. Its main leadership is now out of touch with peoples day to day problems. Independence is still popular but a lot feel the snp wont get us there and while we wait they arent able to run the day to day well enough. nothing will change those excuses will be made , torys bad will be said, labour torys will be said and the cliff will keep getting closer

Rightly or wrongly, I have always felt Scotland was at least as racist as any country I have lived in.

Thats a good point, the numbers migrating potentially will become so huge even a country with the most sympathetic and funded migration policy will struggle to deal with it. Trying to stop people coming through unregulated ways and through proper channels is good but on its own wont make any difference in terms of the system being overwhelmed. The answer is to really start to focus on creating stability, safety and work in the countries where people feel they have no other choice but to leave. That means directing money, resources and clear plans and policy with those countries. It needs to be done at a UN, EU,UK level. With so many green and sustainble projects required throughout the world and in every country, any idea theres not enough work available for people is a lie.

2 episodes into Crime season 2. I thought season 1 was good though not brilliant, but good enough for a watch. This season so far anyway is pretty poor. Just too obvious, seems to jump ahead really quickly with no substance and poor dialogue. No real flow at all which is a shame as it had the chance to be something really good if it had improved but its got worse. Is it just the first 2 episodes that are poor, should I continue watching?

Agree the Irish storyline could have been good but just ended so badly, like a mass shootout in an old folks home isnt going to be nationwide news. It started to just get too unbelievable at times. Saying that there was some bits in the series were good but it was too short, felt rushed and everything just thrown together. Like no one had time to do a good season

All the riot scenes were shite but theres never been a good riot scene in a TV show ever, at least none I can think of. Nothing looks cheaper than a riot scene.

Mortal buckled shape as in "what a shape"

if you mean their owners, you have a good idea there

on a side point and not that Scotland is ever going to be in danger of over population but its a symptom of a failed economic structure if it relies on population growth to pay for itself, a ponzi scheme basically. Theres needs to be a complete change in how economies of countries are designed. Some of that is coming already through sustainable business ideas, so its hopefully on the way.

Im dubious of these polls until we see how some of the votes coming will be, it does feel like people are a bit fed up of the SNP for a variety of different reasons but whether that translates to the voting when its time, I dont know.
