Depends where they sit on a socioeconomic scale. The only realistic way to make sure you don't pay for tuition fees in Scotland is to vote SNP, for example. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Stubbs Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 I'll get excited when Yes is 50%+ without a share of the don't knows. Free money most people claiming not to have an opinion are shitebags who feel a bit embarrassed by recent news but won't actually do anything about it. That being said, this is only going one way and with 16-18 yo's and EU nationals added, it's very possible that we've passed that threshold already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForzaDundee Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 When there's a few polls showing a clear Yes lead there will be a massive swing pretty much over-night. Lots of rats abandoning ship when they realise that they've picked the wrong side. People vote for what they think will win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Yip ending in work poverty, a council house building program, ending NHS privatisation, ending our participation in the war on Yemen, the Green New Deal, national investment bank and improved workers' rights = AIDS or Cancer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of those things are ever going to be achieved by your useless mumbleclown of a leader whether in government or not. Thanks for playing anyway. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this after a hard Brexit which has become the likely outcome with his obvious connivance? With the economic hit that's coming from that maintaining current levels of state expenditures and benefits will be very challenging.

The SNP have most of that already covered. We've had a hundred years of being lied to and let down by Labour. Nobody believes them anymore, and Corbyn will never win an election anyway. So swivel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I expect an election in January or February. The Tories will hope the weather and festive season take away some of Labour's strength. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of it is new money. https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/factcheck-is-boris-johnson-really-giving-the-nhs-new-money Quote Verdict Boris Johnson announced £1.8bn of “new money” for the NHS, but the word “new” is doing a lot of hard work here. If the Nuffield Trust’s account is correct – and we’ve seen no evidence that the government disputes it – then £1bn of the funding is money that NHS providers effectively earned as a reward from making savings in other areas. As the muted response to the announcement suggests, NHS trusts are pleased at being allowed to get £1bn more than they thought they might have got a week ago. But the basic story is that the government has freed up this money by agreeing to stick to an earlier deal. We need to remember the overall financial picture too. The Health Foundation says the NHS has built up a maintenance backlog of at least £6bn after years of real-terms cuts to capital budgets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeadowArab Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 He's a useless, pathetic little shit. Do none of the Dunfermline/Rosyth people who contribute to this forum remember when he was a barman at Cleos, Rosth? He was totally useless - I can still recall him giving me change from a £10 note when I had handed over a £20 note.Fraser Nelson once had a regular job!? In Rosyth? What town is he originally from? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
