DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I get the criticism of people who expected to see more of an overt strategy of pushing for independence but it's pretty obvious that Sturgeon's tactic has been to be seen exhausting every possible avenue of working within the UK given the 2014 result so that the shift towards pushing for indyref2 isn't just seen as opportunism. Which also bears out with Sturgeon's natural cautiousness and how explicitly non-radical the SNP are. And the polling is bearing that strategy out for now. Even Cherry agreed with it as a strategy.Where there is a disagreement is revealing plan B if (as expected) plan A fails.Personally, I'm of the view that you don't tell the enemy what you are going to do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyCromarty Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 (edited) More absolute "BOMBSHELL Evidence" released this afternoon. Surely this is all we have been waiting for to bring the SNP Government down and burn the hated Nicola Sturgeon at the stake, and replace it with a corrupt free and honest tory government. Aye Right. We all know how the tories hold the Scottish people in the highest regard? Edited March 5, 2021 by SandyCromarty 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He previously stated that he didn't attend as it was government business. I personally don't believe it as I don't see why it would be any business of the party when the Government were investigating the former head of the Government under a policy written by the civil service. ^^^ Sitting on a computer at midnight explaining why the winner was offside whilst Nicola and the lads are drinking champagne out of the cup in a local nightclub 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we have the whole Salmond/Sturgeon carry on that should have been dealt with last year. Its fucked now. What chance? Brexit, and the SNP response to it, has played a fairly significant role in building the support for independence to where it is now - the majority opinion in Scotland. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon EF Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I still find the fact that the Yes da's think that if only they'd been calling the shots that we'd be independent by now to be breath-takingly deluded. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we have the whole Salmond/Sturgeon carry on that should have been dealt with last year. Its fucked now. I must disagree. By common consent, Nicola was too quick after the brexit vote and there was no zeitgeist. Hard miles after, I rather think that this Salmond farrago goes some way to distancing us from the bombast that characterised the past. If Nicola continues to strike the same chord over the course of this year, we have the core of our new nation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon EF Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 1 minute ago, Stinky Bone said: The chance to assert the right that our parliament (Holyrood in case you were wondering) is sovereign, and that we do not accept being taken out of Europe. We assert our government as the democratically will of the people and hold a referendum, if we want to, or hold a plebiscite election. The moment has gone now though, we missed the boat. Despite the attempts by people who don't like what they say to discredit them, polls matter, massively. It would be a monumental mistake by the SG to call a referendum while polls don't show a strong support for independence. It is a massive card to play and you do not play it unless you're confident you're going to win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We assert our government as the democratically will of the people and hold a referendum, if we want to, or hold a plebiscite election. The moment has gone now though, we missed the boat. And you don’t think that holding a referendum when Yes was still trailing in the polls and would have likely lost might have somewhat weakened the independence movement’s position? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
