I've just had a look and it doesn't go back very far on the mobile, I'll keep my eyes peeled for next time he does it. If you can go further on PC it will be clear as day. Antillion does it too, the only thing that annoys me is I come back and have 20 notifications and think "jesus what's happened here" and then it's always one of those two.

DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Are you not on your 2nd side of the independence debate. No.As someone who is instinctively a Federalist I spoiled my ballot in 2014.I did not take either side.The EU referendum and the removal of powers from the Scottish Parliament meant it was a natural progression to support independence.The other option - supporting the one party that supposedly supports federalism - the Lib Dems - was never on given their history of cosying up to the Tories throwing their principles out the window for a few crumbs of power. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I imagine a press conference shortly after Derek McKay is refused by Alba could be awkward. "Mr Salmond, why did you think/feel that creepy sex pest Derek McKay wasn't a good fit for your party?""Ermmmmmm" 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other option - supporting the one party that supposedly supports federalism - the Lib Dems - was never on given their history of cosying up to the Tories throwing their principles out the window for a few crumbs of power. All promises of a federal UK are hollow for me because, declining or not, if the north sea revenue comes out of the exchequer down south, England finds it harder to balance the books. Labour's promises on this are even more laughable than those to remove the House Of Lords, which they did heehaw about with a clear 13 year run at it. As you say, no one takes the Lib Dems seriously any more. As for the topic, even as a tactical voter, I honestly don't think I could endorse this lot. The lack of infrastructure/vetting/funding which leaves you looking like a ragtag ensemble of disgruntled ex-employees has been exposed a few times already (Arthur, the hack, the launch). They'll likely sink or swim by the first set of polling - if they're hovering above or around Green/Lib Dem numbers, they'll be on the playing field with the perks of exposure that gives them, less than that and they could fizzle out. I'm almost certain Salmond will have enough votes to get in here, but not brave enough to take a wager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisal Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I'm beginning to think Alba is SNP approved. It acts like the magnet in the bottom of your gearbox and collects all the shite that can get loose and gub your cogs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee-Bey Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Aiming for a populist, flag shagging, economically left, but socially conservative look imo, like the BNP and Front National, but less extreme. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
