Guest Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 If I was as bad at my job as Sturgeon and her advisors, I'd be sacked, how can they keep making predictions based on absolute guesswork then just brass neck it when the complete opposite of their prediction becomes reality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the people that keep voting for her couldn’t give a toss how poor she is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come the next election if they keep going the way they are. They could lose the election and kill off any independence chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't lose the election, but i'm not convinced they will be able to pull together an overall pro-indy majority. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 The false narrative that a vote for Indy is a vote for the SNP to rule Scotland will be ramped up all the more next time and will cost more votes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing false about it. The SNP rule - and are laying waste to - Scotland. One of the lies you need to tell yourself to be a Nat is that they will magically disappear on the day when Unicorns and Rainbows comes about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go back two years. I’d imagine she’d have had a very high approval rate, even at the end of the first full proper lock down. In reality, she’s had an absolute nightmare of the last six months. Her state-knows-best leanings occasionally crept out, but folk bought into it (minimum alcohol pricing, sugar tax, etc, were largely supported on here). She’s essentially banking on SNP voters to buy into the cult and ignore the last period of time. It’s the folk who regard the SNP as a vehicle to bring about social justice who will leave the party in droves. The folk who see independence as the be all and end all may continue to give her the benefit of the doubt. It’s a gamble, but it’s politics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MS RR Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 With all this talk about Johnson walking I was wondering when wee Nicola was planning on leaving? If it wasn’t bad enough her being found to mislead parliament; she has mislead Scottish people into believing she’s following the “science” rather than admit she’s just politicised the whole pandemic. Unfortunately for Nicola she’s losing her political football match with Bojo 10-0 at this stage. Surely that’s sackable? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Noubissie Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 That ONS link there will be the justification given for the last few weeks. Rightly or wrongly, the fact that Scotland, Wales and NI exactly match each other and England is on it's own with a worse rate will be the argument that restrictions have worked. With any luck as a get out excuse to roll them back, rather than to say they work and need to stay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not so sure it's having the impact people on here think/hope though. I mean it might well be but I haven't seen any real evidence of them losing votes yet. Football forums aren't exactly a representative sample of the population. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me with Sturgeon it's the condescending, arrogant attitude she gives everytime shes questioned she genuinely gives of a "how dare you question me" attitude everytime someone asks her any question that isn't entirely to her approval. I'm not sure if it's a new thing or if it's just become way more evident during the pandemic, the eye rolling and the looks she gives some of the journalist is childish and pathetic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
