H_B Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Polls (if you believe them which I never do) expect the SNP to have bigger vote share than the 2011 vote. Which polls? This is very unlikely. Especially once Labour win the 2015 election. I think the SNP will be the largest party, and maybe a small majority, but it won't be as comprehensive as the last time. I hope the SNP do win the wee parliament election next time out. They've done a decent job so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecto Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Surely you can see the excitement that this debate has caused? People are talking about politics like never before, because on the 18th we hold all of the power in our hands. If we vote yes we keep the power. Every election counts because our representatives will absolutely be shaping our country. If it's a no vote we go back to blaming someone else for all our ills, taking no responsibility and generally having a voice that doesn't matter. Who would get excited about that? As far as keeping the engagement in politics going goes, that can only be achieved with a yes vote. If it's a no vote we go back to a system where nobody cares. it is not excitement caused by the debate, the "actual debate" is getting lost, all that is getting people excited is how appalling Salmond's performance was 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're obsessed with Salmond. Not everyone is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desperate stuff, really Again you're confusing your experience with wider reality. You're obsessed with Salmond. Not everyone is. no not really, more by the fact Salmond was hyped up, to the point that it was hardly worth Darling turning up, and all we seen was a man out of his comfort zone, and many on here who confused with "public speaking" with "debating", they are NOT the same thing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrmad Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Desperate stuff, really I agree, it has been desperate stuff from BT and the MSM from the getgo, fortunately millions of people have been engaged on the internet,on the doorstep or at meetings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sound like Blair Jenkins, don't believe him either, this is an argument that does not wash, if things were going so well the result would be a done deal by now and low and behold that is not what the polls are showing, but before you give me the "only poll that matters is on the 18th" line, am not buying that either 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banana Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 "Taking on" as in "taking on" you. On here. It's not that difficult a concept. You used the tired line about how "hilarious" it would be at the levels of seethe on the losing side on September 19th. I called you out on your infantile banter. You then used a series of P&B cliches to make yourself look less of a fanny. It didn't work. However, not to worry, I expect you'll reply with more witty insights as to how utterly furious I am and that I should really calm down. If you think this is confrontational or aggressive, I'd advise you to never get involved in conversation with anyone ever. Now, I'm going to go and lie down and try to bring my blood pressure down while you think up a suitably cliched response. What the fcuk is wrong with you, seriously? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confidemus Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 What the fcuk is wrong with you, seriously? I'm fine. You, on the other hand, by still banging on about it, are clearly raging at having being pulled up for being a fanny. Never mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confidemus Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) You know what mate....I think we're gonna feckin do this!!!! The confidence has flagged on occasion, as it probably has with any Yes voter, but I've never felt we can't do this. The closer we get, the more I think we can do this, however. We need to go all out from here on in, winning over DK's and soft No's. We can bastartin well do this!! ETA: Few too many "we can do this" comments in there, but f**k it in the eye - we can do this!
