Antlion Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Rumours today that Salmond will be announcing a great big fat bid for Holyrood. “Scrambling for relevance” springs to mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monthefife Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Looks like the egotistical maniac is about to do a "Margo" and stand as a Pro-independence MSP. The difference here is people actually liked Margo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference here is people actually liked Margo. On the list or in a constuency?If he does it he should go somewhere that has zero SNP or Green seats. Central Scotland and NE Scotland are the only regions this would apply to.If he is genuinely only interested in independence then it will be on the list for one of those - NE Scotland would be the likely one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SANTAN Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) This is beautiful, hopefully he'll put candidates in every area and we can see the yes das finally make their case. Will any SNP members jump ship? Imagine if they did a debate, Sturgeon vs Salmond, that would be scenes.

Donathan Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Just as well the campaign is socially distanced otherwise there’s a risk that he’d get a bit handsy with the activists 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 It's interesting that the MSM are pushing the damaging to the SNP line - if they are successful on the list it may damage the Unionist parties more. The SNP only have 4 list MSPs - and 3 of those are in South of Scotland. It's the Tories, Lib Dems and Labour who should be worried. It might affect the Greens but I think they have enough to attract voters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 If they are serious about putting up four people on each list, It'll be some laugh seeing the calibre of candidates they choose with such short notice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Has he said where he’ll place himself? Areas where the SNP are likely to do a clean sweep surely most likely. On the 2016 result, about 13,000 list votes in Central Scotland or 15,000 in Glasgow would get him in. Probably doable but would be silly to go up against Harvie in Glasgow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) The very first candidate they mentioned, Eva Comrie, starting banging on about “equalities policy” So, the Wings party it is, then. Safely in the bin. Edit: and the bold Stu has turned up himself now. Edited March 26, 2021 by oneteaminglasgow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orfc Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I've no truck with scottish independence but if he wants some candidates putting up quickly and there's a good chance of trousering 90K a year I'm up for it Putting it that way it explains a lot of the MPs the SNP have 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
