williemillersmoustache Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Rees-Mogg coming to Edinburgh on polling day after calling Ross a lightweight is surely the biggest intra-party "know your place peasant" delivered in history. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I will be numbering the SNP, Green, Lib Dem and Labour candidates, I think. Might have to think twice about numbering Labour, however, because of local circumstances. I won't be numbering the Tories or the 'independent' who appeared on their campaign literature at the last couple of national elections. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely not. Lib Dems, Independent, Labour and then nothing else for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gannonball Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Can see the tories in my area making inroads with the promise of increased frequency of general waste collection. The facebook maws too lazy to segregate waste will lap that shit up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oneteaminglasgow Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 In an objectively correct move, I’ve stuck the Greens as first preference. Followed by the SNP, Labour, both Lib Dem’s, Tory and then the Family Party loonball at the bottom. We’ll probably be getting two Lib Dem’s and an SNP elected though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbered the goodies one to four, and left the SNP boxes blank. Can you genuinely look at all the evil those b*****ds have inflicted on people as ‘goodies’? That genuinely just makes you a fleg waving servile diddy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf its probably the first promise/policy I have seen come through my door for about a decade from the tories rather than ‘SNP BAD’ so progress in that sense. The council posts on fb regardless of context will always descend to quite aptly a bin-fire of comments regarding waste collection. Its always the general waste one though apart from charging extra for garden waste now, I now just don’t bother collecting my grass cuttings, f**k the system. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 Just back from drawing a (rather artistic, if I do say so myself, had the dick veins on it and everything) cock and balls on my ballot paper. Wishing all Tory voting losers an absolutely terrible Local Election Day. Everyone else, good luck, I hope your guy wins I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 (edited) Out of interest (and I'm not planning to do this), is there anything to be gained from starting your numbering at n > 1? I'm thinking it might in a "I don't really want to vote for these people but prepared to give them a vote at later rounds if it stops some other arsehole" way, but I can't figure out if that makes any difference to just starting at 1.

Your highest ranked candidate would be given your first preference vote so no difference between ranking candidates 1-5 or 20-25. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Capital Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 (edited) The Scottish Family Party essentially say in their manifesto that they want Naked Attraction taken off air so I'm putting them last.
