There's a Republican arsehole on Newsnight just now who's got me on the verge of punching f**k out my telly. #seething

The orange one

Just catching up on this and it's getting late so didn't spot the f in shift on first read. Disturbing.

Address please. And can we they have both?

A rehash of a post the fascist old c**t made in September. This sort of premeditated incitement should be enough to get Trump the jail given what happened on January 6.

Aye, because Arnold Palmer's dick is definitely dealing with the fundamentals.

Next permanent manager of the Conservative and Unionist Party 2024

People like Warsi can't win here. They're old school Tories and have the choice of leaving the Tory party or voting for a f**king arsehole. Nobody can vote for Jenrick or Badenoch and expect anything close to "normal" politics. They're both batshit mental. -
Once upon a time he must have had something about him. Now he's just one of the world's biggest arseholes.

One more step towards Twitter going down the tubes.

Reform is rammed with bigots and racists. Shouldn't need to be said more than once but there you go. All led by the pied piper dog whistling his way through the country.

Stephen Flynn looks comfortably the best available. He needs to be in Holyrood, leading the SNP and starting the process of bringing disparate groups together on those areas where there is common ground - primarily that Scotland is a country and should run its own affairs.

SNP Lies, Corruption and Hypocrisy- add them here

Or Tory -
I don't disagree that the time was right for Nicola Sturgeon. My phrasing around "been able to continue" is maybe more about continuing to hold mainstream relevance. If you look at the ways in which Obama has retained relevance in US political discourse, that's the sort of thing I'm thinking about. Of course Obama hasn't had the issues hanging over him that Alex Salmond has so maybe the comparison isn't reasonable. Which is a shame. Because the whole episode has affected Sturgeon and what she's been able to achieve. Scotland loses.

Given the very many different perspectives which folk may hold of Alex Salmond, it's good to see that Twitter has embraced them all with a balance that's to be admired ... or something. Salmond led the drive to put independence at the heart of politics in this country. For reasons which will be dissected for a long time to come, he wasn't able to build a platform which would enable him to build on the progress made up to 2014. Would Scotland have been better placed had he been able to continue to exercise his political skills over the last 10 years? Almost certainly yes. That's a loss to Scotland as a country. All the other stuff? Impossible to ignore. His supporters are adamant he was stitched up. His critics think he got off lightly. Unlikely a middle ground will be reached any time soon.
