lichtgilphead Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 You're just going round in circles. Local politics is a small world. Knowing your opponents is part of the game. Anne obviously considers Dave to be important enough to make a formal complaint about, yet you believe he can walk up to her in the street and she will unknowingly pose with him for a photo? It's not as if the photo was snatched - she's obviously posing for it... IMO, she's either ignorant, naive or both. What's your view? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaikuHibee Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Not when the person is a nonentity, no. But that still doesn't addresss the point that a photo takes seconds to stage. Or do you expect her to instantly recognise everyone who approaches her? What are you on mate? Tories went on Murphy's tour. That hundred days thing.

Try and imagine the situation was reversed and unionist sites were denigrating a Yes campaigner for sharing a photo with some no mark wrong'un. They'd get ripped for their desperation. Leave this sort of personal nonsense to the No side, it does nobody any favours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colkitto Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Murphy's 5 point plan includes a commitment to patriotism I'm not making that up by the way! Jeeze, I can already tell he just doesn't get it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H_B Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 what an absolute disaster lichtgilphead is having here. Still we should be glad he's returned. 3 months of sobbing uncontrollably after the mauling Yes took from the Scottish electorate. Can I have your views on Alex Salmond meeting Bruce Ogilvie? I mean he must have known who the disgusting racist was.. Right? Why did he shake hands with such a vile individual ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you should try to educate me on what the referendum was about... Given how horribly you got it all the way through while I tried my best to tell you what the electorate thought was important and how we would vote.

H_B Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Possibly that ANYONE who says shit like "commitment to patriotism" deserves to be laughed at. Right. I certainly agree that all nationalists should be pointed and laughed at. And patriots should always be treated with absolute suspicion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Think Jim Murphy shouldn't be under-estimated. He has been parachuted in from Westminster because he is seen as charismatic and dynamic etc etc, but then I take a look at this picture: and have to question whether he really is fully in tune with the early 21st century.

MarkoRaj Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Patriotism pish aside, it seems like a good move that. Can't really disagree with what's there. Clearly most people believe that the SNP are the only party with Scotland's interests at heart, Scottish Labour need to convince otherwise.

You have to say that Murphy is a step up on Lamont, which can only be positive for Labour. And they do have to re-engage with voters and become more parochial, as the SNP are.

The Master Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 You're just going round in circles. Local politics is a small world. Knowing your opponents is part of the game. It's bugger all to do with local politics. He's a Farage figure who appears wherever there's an opportunity. Except he's not as well-known as Farage and yes, it's highly likely that in the split second required to take a photograph she didn't recognise him. Anne obviously considers Dave to be important enough to make a formal complaint about, yet you believe he can walk up to her in the street and she will unknowingly pose with him for a photo? Knowing the name of the NF leader doesn't require knowledge of their appearance. It's not as if the photo was snatched - she's obviously posing for it... Oh boy, now you're getting desperate. She's clearly not posing - she's turning round to look at him, whereas a pose would have them both facing the camera. IMO, she's either ignorant, naive or both. What's your view? None of the above. I see you've offered no explanation as to why he's wearing a Labour badge and carrying a Labour campaign paper, when if it were a joint platform he'd be wearing and holding the NF equivalents.
