Peppino Impastato Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Those statements are consistent. She did do wrong. She exploited hard-up people in low value homes for depressed sales. Oh an attack of morals now when it allows you to say snp bad, one might think you're a lying troll. Your statement is entirely subjective anyway, what we know is she did nothing illegal and her constituents can judge her otherwise. since you're now seemingly against things that are 'wrong' presumably you'll be calling for car michael to resign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppino Impastato Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 U andby hard up ppeople do you mean 'backwards peasants'? I wonder if they spoke scots, strange how yesterday you sneered at such people repeatedly yet today you are suddenly very concerned they got a fair price for their house. One might think you're a lying troll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that the hard up woman who was unable to sell her house then took a price she was happy with at the time ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Was that the hard up woman who was unable to sell her house then took a price she was happy with at the time ? I think she was fuming at only doubling her money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she was from any party other than the SNP you'd be all over this stuff.

The seal types will defend anyone linked to the SNP or the Independence movement no matter what they do. See Thomson, McGarry, Campbell ... I'm not sure why you're surprised.

DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I think any political party that gets a landslide or a huge influx of members is bound to get a few nutters and bad uns through. It's what you do to deal with them that matters. McGarry resigning the whip was absolutely the right thing to do - I presume she did so before she had it removed by the party themselves. It's no different from Labour who had to remove the whip from and suspend Eric Joyce. Anyone who continues to defend politicians in that situation is either stupid or defending the indefensible.

Well, all business is to a certain extent immoral, and in some cases people doubled their money. I wouldn't say paying someone twice what they paid for their property is ripping them off. If she is charged with anything then fine, if not its not really a massive concern to me to be quite honest. Though I admit I don't know much about the case.

Antlion Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 You don't care if she made money out of ripping off desperate people so long as she hasn't broken the law? Thomson strikes me as an absolutely opportunistic snake, but the "desperate people" as interviewed at the time came across as equally venal, greedy snakes. It's kind of hard to see it as a baddie versus goodie story when the supposed goodies look just as grasping and unpleasant as the supposed baddie.

It's kind of hard to see it as a baddie versus goodie story when the supposed goodies look just as grasping and unpleasant as the supposed baddie. And when none of them made any complaints whatsoever until they were contacted by Labour and the unionist press years later. Its not like anyone held a gun to their head. Though as I say if there is more I don't know I'm prepared to be outraged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
