Confidemus Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Are we allowed to say fanny? Banterous is a fanny.... seems to work Absolutely. For instance, I would say that around 98% of No voters are fannies. It's more than reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renton Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Patrick Harvie and Maggie Chapman on the commision for the Greens. Interestingly that gives the pro Indy parties a solid voice on the commission, witht he Lib dems nominally in favour of federalism as well. Only Labour to declare who will represent them.

Wallace Mercer Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Complete win win for nationalist parties... whatever suggested by unionists will be way off..... cue another referendum.

Reynard Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 As far as I can tell, they are still the ruling party in Scotland. They can now get on with "ruling" now that independence has been parked. Well, they can after their conference and theyve chosen their new leader who will have to collaborate with WM on devolution as agreed in the EA signed by Salmond, Moore, Sturgeon and Cameron.

WaffenThinMint Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 What makes you think "unionists" ARE worried about devo max? What certainly ISNT going to happen is to allow a defeated nationalist party dictate any terms. They had their shot and made an arse of it. They will certainly be involved in the process going forward, but their response will be boringly predictable regardless no matter what is presentedm and eventually delivered. A week is a long time in politics, & with all eyes on the next GE, my guess is they're going to be looking for friends in advance in the event of a hung parliament. Everyone knows the LibDems are finished, UKIP will take some seats but not enough to provide any sort of viable coalition partnership, & NI is going to be one almighty mess as Stormont's budget chickens come home to roost this winter will probably see its few seats once more scattered piecemeal between four (maybe five) parties. All signs are the SNP will grab a few surprise seats south of Stirling from poorer areas now feeling they've nothing left to lose but a useless Labour gobshite, & in that instance those in Westminster may decide it's going to be easier dealing with one party (even one run by "those ungrateful Picts, damn their impertinence!") than trying to cut confidence & supply deals with various minor parties that could easily be thwarted by a backbench revolt.

Possible. Its clear they could also be in a bit of trouble in their current heartlan area which used to be Tory. Should be almost interesting in Scotland for once. Its doubtful it will make a great deal of difference at a general election all the same. The SNP dont really come into the equation although I'm fairly sure they get a small bump in some areas. I welcome their lurch to the left as the shires won't welcome this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Labour announce Iain Gray as one of their nominees for the commission 9so it's clear they aren't going to be taking this seriously). He'll be paired with an appropriate minder from the Westminster labour party, likely to be Gregg McClymott. So, the full commission is: SNP John Swinney Linda Fabiani Greens Patrick Harvie Maggie Chapman Labour Iain Gray Gregg McClymott (tbc) Tories Annabel Goldie Professor Adam Tompkins Lib Dems Michael Moore Tavish Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Anything less than "everything except defence and foreign affairs" and they can get fucked, imo.
