BerwickMad Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 You really are an idiot, I don't believe you are a troll. Seething over a tie and pin badge? oh for f**k sake The tie and pin badge were only a small part of the back firing PR stunt. You can't look at them individually, but as part of the whole thing. The clapping competition was probably the worst of it, followed by the flag bit. Yesterday people were denying it was a PR disaster. Apparently he wasn't even being ridiculed on twitter. Today national newspapers are ridiculing him. I doubt he would behave in the same manner if he had his chance again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeGas Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Dear God! Don't the Scottish nationalists love it,a spot of flag flying and with it out comes the BraveHeart costume! Imagine if you had qualified for Brazil!!!! Still the biggest match winner,a patriotic wave. There's a definite hint of nationalist desperation and hopelessness in the air and it's getting embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H_B Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 To be fair to Salmond, after you've hit a nadir like "Scolympians" anything goes. You've plumbed the lowest depths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthAyrshireKillie Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Holy shit"I can't wait until we are finally rid of the Scots. Watch the ones who've done very nicely out of England come crawling across the border (or staying in the South) with their weasel words of friendship once the 16 year olds watching Braveheart, boggle eyed racists and the uneducated inner city unemployed have decided to go it alone. English independence now". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampy Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Salmond's move plays to the common perception that the SNP appeals to the lowest common denominator (along the lines of the 'Referendum on the 700th Anniversary of Bannockburn' thing, which was seemingly a myth). Because nothing excites the lowest common denominator like the anniversary of a medieval battle. And tennis. Apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Are people trying to one up each other by comparing politician who have made an arse of themselves? Get a grip.

Enigma Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Getting it up the English. And when Britain celebrated the anniversary of the battle of Trafalgar we were just getting it up the Spanish and the French aye? I see the anniversary of the battle of Largs is coming up to. I hope we don't offend our Norwegian friend, or are we allowed to commemorate that one as it wasn't against the English? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xbl Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Amazingly, I actually had to check out a picture of Alex Salmond to see this disgraceful "Scottish Tie". Its a blue tie. People need to get over themselves here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pin badges were one thing but a blue tie is just completely outrageous. Why has no one picked up on the fact that Cameron was obviously subversively mocking Scotland by ALSO wearing a blue tie?? Oh the outrage! Edit: For typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
