Fide Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 So it seems that Kezia did bring it up. Sturgeon said Neil Hay passed the SNP vetting process just as Ian Smart passed the Labour vetting process... Zing!! Here's how deflated Dugdale was after that!

Fide Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Sturgeon has now said she'll let the electorate of Edinburgh South decide. Seems fair enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrmad Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 You have to pander to the elderly to win votes, because not only do they represent a large demographic. Especially in Scotland, but they also they're also the people who are most likely to vote. This is why they get so many bribes like winter fuel allowance and inflation busting pensions. Of course they've taken far more out than they've ever payed in, but you can never confront anyone on this because you'll be on the receiving end of "Ah've paid intae this system mah whole life, and ah should get something oot of it". However, the big problem is what happens when all these baby boomers in their late 50's early 60's start to enter retirement. There is no way people like me will be able to support them. I suspect they're will be more tax hikes and inflation to be able to cover unfunded pension liabilities, which is going to lead to some kind of revolt in the working population. No, you don't have to pander to them if doing the right thing is more important than power and greed, if they were doing the right thing on this issue they would seek the best path for the country to take over the next 4 or 5 decades rather than the path they've chosen to take over the last few decades.

Thumper Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 The SNP haven't pandered to the old at all in this campaign and they're going to handily win it. YouGov just gave them a plurality in every age group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoRaj Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Surely Dugdale must have known Sturgeon would have come back with an example of britnat abuse from her side? Sturgeon pulls out an ace with Ian Smart, a man who speaks on Labour's behalf on TV on numerous occasions. Dugdale claims she doesn't know about the abuse and seemed to indicate it only matters if you're on the ballot paper... If Dugdale appears on Smarts Twitter time-line it could be very embarrassing for her From the 4th April: Oh dear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fide Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Similar to the French Ambassador incident, that's another attempt at smearing the SNP dealt with in a matter of hours, only to make the Labour attacker look worse both times.
