Dipped Flake Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 They aren't even trying to be a serious paper are they? it is the only paper in Scotland that gives voice to 45% of the voters in the last referendum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerwickMad Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 it is the only paper in Scotland that gives voice to 45% of the voters in the last referendumIt's insulting to any reasonable person in that 45% to say that that rag is their voice. It's like saying The Mirror is my voice because I voted Labour at the last election. It's not news in The National, it's just propaganda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like saying The Mirror is my voice because I voted Labour at the last election. It's not news in The National, it's just propaganda. it is news slanted towards those who believe in Independence. I presume as you hate that idea you don't buy the National so no idea why you are getting upset by it. And as for you saying it is propaganda, we had every news outlet possible, including the BBC, pouring our propaganda against the YES side in the referendum. If the National can go just a small way to try and redress that balance it can only be a good thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, no different from the Daily Record, the Daily Mail or the Telegraph then? The Record in particular is nothing more than re-badged Scottish Labour election literature.

I'm Brian Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 What time do the results start coming through... Can't get the Friday off work... Hit my bed after work and then get up early doors? This was the expected times for 2010 http://news.stv.tv/politics/175128-general-election-2010-expected-scottish-declaration-times/ Not terribly accurate and only gives you a rough idea. IIRC Ayr declared around 0330 so it was an hour and a half out from the guide. There's usually a race to be the first in the UK which is usually won by one of the Sunderland constituencies. They normally declare about 11pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the National can go just a small way to try and redress that balance it can only be a good thing I don't believe it is a good thing. It just adds more shite on top of existing shite. I don't hate the idea of a pro-independence publication, I just don't think it can, or you can, claim it is the voice of 45% of voters at an election. Atno point am I getting upset. I'm simply responding to your comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Record in particular is nothing more than re-badged Scottish Labour election literature.Well if you read my comment, I did compare it to The Mirror, a Labour supporting paper. I'm not saying it's any better or worse than these already biased papers, I'm simply suggesting it's insulting to normal thinking people that a tabloid paper spouting propaganda is their voice.

I'm Brian Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Gordon Brown is an utter clown of a man. Yesterday's man. Ex MP Ex PM Arguably the worst PM in history Alleged bully Led the UK into one of the worst financial crisis in history Forgets to switch his microphone off Can't even get a decent partisan crowd to come and see him in Cumnock. Has already firmly been placed in the failure category of the history books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter pathetic. If you look at the details you will see that the SNP are being totally honest here. Ie they are not going to adjust figures that are already in the current spending yr as they have no influence in Westminster, any figures as of next yr show increased spending Brown is a w@nk stain of a man.

During his time as chancellor he introduced the minimum wage, winter fuel allowance and child tax credits for working families. Great policies for the less well off.

Not to mention, selling the UK gold and bankrupting the pension fund?? W@nkstain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labour might actually have my support if they weren't so incompetent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 The financial collapse was global and mostly caused by the banks. Who was in control of regulating the banks in this country? We were affected much more than most European countries, and Labour certainly didn't lead the recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fide Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 The financial collapse was global and mostly caused by the banks. So why are the Tories punishing the poor then? A move fully supported by Labour, I might add. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
