Got to say I feel the response to the Westminster power grab from the SNP was very lukewarm. This keep to the middle of the road, don't rock the boat approach is starting to wear thin and become very frustrating.

I'm not in the lets pull the MP's from Westminster camp (yet) but apart from a couple of sound bites and Blackford   wanting us to sign a petition FFS! that's all that's happened.

Sad to say the Tories are playing us like a fiddle over Brexit and indyref2 and so far we have no answer to them.  I really hope Sturgeon takes the gloves off in October and just goes for it! 

Well done the SNP. Needed to be done at Westminster :thumsup2

Ian Blackford knew how that was going to go, and so did the rest of them. They basically had a big oppertunity here and knocked it right out the fucking park. It's a move that will probably gain a lot of sympathy off the back of yesterday's debacle and a delightfully bold move.

The SNP absolute fucking riddies. :lol:

Imagine voting for that party and they do something like that. 

Brexit may be slowly becoming a farce but the SNP in all departments is very quickly becoming one as well.

You do realise this has already been threatened at Holyrood by Ruth and her chums?

I think it was probably the right thing to do. Obviously it is a “stunt” but it generates publicity for the actual issue around the blatant attack on devolution that was in danger of being ignored again by the media.

Anyone with a better knowledge of the parliamentary rules know if Blackford was correct there? Seing on twitter that he was advised that Blackford had the right to move the vote but just ignored it? Correct or twitter nonsense?

Sympathy from whom?! The media will be describing this as pathetic/immature/petty etc and exactly why Scotland isn't safe in the hands of the SNP.

It's absolutely brilliant, but it'll only further people in the trenches of their already pre-set opinion IMO.

He did "beg to move" and indicated he wanted it there and then. 

Bercow said he could grant a vote after PMQs, but not during.

Blackford had obviously done his homework as to his right to call for a vote when he did.  Unlike Bercow.

That was incredibly embarrassing for the SNP. Won't do them well to act like petulant children, can't see anyone over the age of 12 being won over by todays posturing. Thought Mhari was going to start throwing hands as she swaggered out.
