Think Salmond / Galloway / Sheridan all got a wee bit of the God complex, starting to believe the people were following them and not the party they were in, left they party, started a new one and expected most of the previous members/followers to come with them. Then reality and insanity entered their lives. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I think Salmond thought he could sit out as FM/SNP leader for a year or two after 2014 and then swan back in as the returning hero. He can't cope with the fact that Sturgeon has been far more popular with the electorate than he ever was. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTG_03 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Friend of mine has gone from a reasonable, friendly guy you'd happily go for a pint with to a seething mess. He's all over Facebook about Sturgeon allowing 4 year old kids to change gender, the EU are evil woke lefties. He loves Jordan Peterson and I'm fairly sure he's on his way to voting Tory. He previously despised the Tories, a lot of folk agreeing with him in his comments worryingly, tho I expect most folk just see it and scroll past his nonsense (I hope). Oh, he's recently divorced too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far right conspiracy theorists love taking neoliberal institutions and pretending they're a bolshevik vanguard from a century ago. They couldn't get enough of the Great Reset - an attempted rebranding of capitalism as socially progressive - for example. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeply misogynistic as well, I think because of the total focus people had on independence in that era, it got lost. I think since Brexit and the fallout of that, and Trump, we've seen a lot of these shysters for who they actually are. I saw one of his early tweets as he started out on the anti-trans grift. He was really abusive to a trans teenager, I replied on twitter words to the effect ‘youre being out of order this is a kid youre abusing with that language’ and was blocked. But the snivelling wee gimp then adds you to a ‘block list’ his readers are so incapable of independent thought that he tells them what to think, who to listen to, who to block. Madness. Im very much pro-independence, but being on his block list meant that I was labelled ‘a yoon’ by people who id previously thought to be relatively sane. The guy is a self promoting w**k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Often wonder what happened with the podcast that James English recorded with international drug trafficker and major organised crime figure Daniel Kinahan. It would be genuinely fascinating to listen to, doubt it'll ever see the light of day. Quite a few people involved with boxing have had issues following their association with Kinahan - for example, the world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury can't get a US visa at the moment as he was previously 'advised' by Kinahan and attended his wedding. Rumours are that Scotland's current top boxer Josh Taylor is the same. Given James English happily gave a multiple murderer a platform to promote himself, I wonder if he's on a US list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll be for more than association that they cant get a visa. Kinahan will still have his tentacles involved in some way, thats why they will be refused. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
