GTG_03 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Joanna cherry getting cut off in the middle of tearing in to the Tories so Jackie could go live to...some journalists. I thought ruth was poor. Having to defend awful policy will do that to you, she is just mays puppet. She was scowling most of the time, the friendly tory persona has gone. Rennie is pointless, Sturgeon was good, harvie was excellent and coburn was...well he was coburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I've heard Theresa may being asked about Scotland falling down the PISA league tables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the extra £1000 Scottish nurses get compared to English ones would be enough for a few decent meals in 1* restaurants without the need to trouble a food bank?

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Here is a video of Tory Nurse and her Tory Councillor dad on question time from 10 days ago So does she earn 50% above the average wage and still need to use food banks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How often have you heard Ruth Davidson being asked about the issues JDMP raised? Being that she is a Tory, and that her party is in government and that this is a GE, would you say that she should be asked more about Tory U.K. policy and the manifesto than devolved issues and indyref2?

Colkitto Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Another appalling leaders debate from the BBC. They continuously get away with this at every election and nothing gets done about it. Apart from Tory plants in the audience that just happens to get most air time, they can't find time to discuss actual Westminster policies on austerity, national debt, vile rape clause, Trident, pension cuts,hard Tory Brexit. Instead we go for devolved issues like NHS and education. Don't anyone tell me this isn't deliberate bias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that now the SNPs policies are being accused of sending people to foodbanks, the personal situation of those people becomes more important than any cut the SNP might have made.

Big Fifer Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 I'm not denying that mental health is an important issue - but Willie Rennie literally talks about it with every sentence that comes out of his face hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapelhall chap Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 15 minutes ago, johnnydun said: Apparently she was on Question Time and works for Bupa. Plant! Is she the daughter of the wheel chair Tory candidate for Airdrie/Shotts at the last GE as he claimed the same story then on QT? I have watched many election debates on TV and I always thought it was the job of the debate to consider the work of the outgoing Government and to allow the Opposition parties to present alternatives but so much tonight was re-visiting last years Holyrood election and "devolved" matters. This election was called over Brexit and removing the role of opposition from annoying Theresa May and yet she hardly featured in the questions taken by the BBC. As for Kezia I can understand her angry demeanour as wee Tank Commander, Ruth, has stolen most of her remaining voters. Coburn did say when he was at school he could parse Latin and as one who has a higher Latin from the mid sixties,, I share his pain.When I first voted in 1970 the Tory candidate was a William Rennie and I now know why I don't have much time for the current Willie Rennie. Liked Patrick Harvie for trying to say this was a Westminster GE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
