How about you and others on this site,what's your concept of democracy ?? If you're referring to the Scottish Referendum, then I think you'll find that there's been one huge "game changer" since then. The fact that the original "project fear" centred around the fact that an independent Scotland would not be part of the EU and that the ONLY way to remain part of the EU was to vote for the status quo / remain part of the union, surely changes things dramatically ?? How many people do you reckon were put off voting for independence as they wanted to remain within the EU ? Do you reckon that just maybe, some of these people now feel rather betrayed ?? "Once in a generation" was fair enough had things remained as they were, however when you factor in the many changes since then, such as the EU referendum result, the distinct possibility of a "Hard Brexit", the fact that the Scottish Parliament has been confirmed as powerless and inconsequential by Westminster, then I think there is definitely a case for another referendum given the enormous changes to our political and Economic landscape...............

Benjamin_Nevis Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Voted green last election and my understanding of democracy is very clear.How about you and others on this site,what's your concept of democracy ??Simple. If a party (or parties) include in their election manifesto a commitment to hold a referendum only in the event of a change, followed by that (or those parties) winning said election, which in turn is followed by that literal change happening, they should be able to hold that second referendum. This is how democracy works. If you voted Green (you voted Labour) then you have actually contributed to putting a pro Indy government in place, which makes you a spectacularly thick c**t. Just for the lolz and bearing the above in mind, explain your version of "democracy". [emoji38] 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji38] It was always going to be a pro Indy government in place anyway, but who would have thought a government without a majority to work with that has to compromise with the greens,that's fine by me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Aviva man walking away with £6.5 million yesterday for failing (even if he had succeeded it would have been disgraceful), is just another sign of how nobody really cares about the inequality and outrageous money paid to CEO's and Directors. This all came to a head a couple of years back when there was "outrage" throughout the mainstream media, political parties and the Twitteratti, however it all just vanished with a whimper and in fact the wages at the top have continued to rise at crazy rates while the rest of us in society have been hit with "austerity max", not to mention the record amounts of homeless and the continuing increase in foodbank usage. How will we ever change this and does anyone in power REALLY care ?? Personally, It annoys me so much that I'd be willing to help anyone who campaigns for the return of madame guillotine.................. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While in reality, he will staunchly oppose the Tory budget in his speeches, while refusing to whip his band of red tories to vote against the budget. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
