We'll encourage Italians from Rome to come back to reconstruct and restore Hadrian's Wall. It did a good job for so many years in keeping these marauding, raping, pillaging Anglo Saxons out of Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone opposed to the SNP I often get "what about the tories" and amazingly enough I find their flagrant corruption to also be despicable, the idea that you can't criticise either without supporting the other is sadly common nowadays. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the price of the press normalising totally ludicrous levels of incompetency, abhorrent ideology, and corruption to stop a mild socially democratic Labour Party from getting into power. Everyone you see in the press solemnly asking for some decency or questioning why nobody cares about this stuff anymore is doing this bit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone you see in the press solemnly asking for some decency or questioning why nobody cares about this stuff anymore is doing this bit I'm not so sure that's the reasoning I'd give entirely but I'd agree to a certain extent. I'd say there's a lot of disinterest before you even get into media biases. From a lot of the posts I've read from you I'd say we'd be likely to agree on an awful lot of things but I certainly don't give the MSM as much credibility or clout as you do. It's a very hard thing to try and quantify - how much influence does the MSM have in politics - I'd never deny how significant the influence actually is but I just don't view it as powerful as yourself, or perhaps as orchestrated as yourself, especially when it comes to reasoning on why Corbyn didn't do so well etc. I'd like to know if there ever was a time when people viewed politicians as anything other than corrupt in nature. I think I'm firmly in the "they're all b*****ds" by the fact they want to be politicians but I suppose that's very cynical.

BFTD Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 There are a few posters who'd absolutely give it the big "SEE? TOLD SHE WAS DONE FOR!" if wee Nic retired after leading Scotland to independence. Supepras himself will have been booted out of office another half-dozen times, at least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did notice he wasn't getting defensive when someone suggested Billy Gilmour may not be ready to lead the midfield this summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I don't agree with the idea he was punted for not being pro SNP I didn't see anything I found particularly worthy of a ban but I can imagine if you were a moderator that was familiar that he was an alias account they could fairly bag him for spamming or something similar. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll have been emptied for the same reason he always gets emptied - continually spamming threads until every second post is by him, in an attempt to make all the other posts about him. You or I would get the same treatment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
