Going on that interview, she’ll be even more of a liability than Rennie. Let's not get carried away now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be glorious to see the boot lose her seat but I think there'll be another Unionist circling of wagons there, if not a bit of downright dirtiness and cheating that the Lib Dems are quite good at. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swinson: Not led by Boris Johnson Robertson: But other Tories? Swinson: *unquotable jabber* Robertson: You're tainted by austerity and the Tories aren't you? Swinson: That was 5 years ago. Ancient history. Robertson: You want a people's vote. Swinson: Yes. Robertson: But you'll oppose a second indyref? Swinson: Of course that was only 5 years ago. Haha, that's superb. The Libs hypocrisy is fantastic and come any debate or election period where more people are paying attention then that'll show them up for the oddballs they are.

At a local campaigning level Lib Dems have been by far the nastiest most deceitful group I have come across. People say they're just Tories, which is probably true, but from my own experience when they get a whiff of power/victory they have went to far greater length's in the search of it.

Kejan Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) I gave my first ever vote to them in the early 00s. I still feel the shame of that to this day. Thankfully it was Dundee East and they came 5th. Edited July 23, 2019 by Kejan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to regularly vote for them, till they slept with the Tories. Only then did I become aware of the phrase 'Orange Book'. Basically , all those 'nice folk', the sandal wearers, had been pushed aside by people you really couldn't differentiate from Tories. Imo, huge number of their former voters still consider LD to be scumbags, regardless of their position on Brexit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteRoseKillie Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Helen Grant (C, Maidstone) has just stood up on her hind legs in the House. Very impressive tan, which she definitely didn't have a fortnight or so ago. They knock off for six weeks this week, but she JUST COULDN'T FúCKING WAIT, could she? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only claim mistaken identity. I had absolutely no idea of her ethnicity, and really do feel bad now. In my defence (although there really is none - I've made a horrifically wrong assumption), I would normally be aware, if only through the Tories desperation to push such minority representatives as they have to the fore. I honestly had no idea. Top picture from her own twitter. Edited July 24, 2019 by WhiteRoseKillie apolgy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy on the account calling him a "degenerate" as well is a hefty red flag. Even ignoring loads of the dodgy shite that's coming out of his (bizarrely not locked) Facebook he clearly wrote his own Wiki page. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gareth_Arnold 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
