He says he is offering change, yet his signal policy is merely to comply with the NIP as written which is a continuation of Tory policy.

It just beggars belief that he seems to ignore all the polls that show Labour voters think Brecht isn’t working. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 You're right there is no way the SNP could organise this. It's the equivalent of putting a colony on Mars or cracking down on AirBnB. They will just need to keep bribing middle class voters until the end of time. They should get back to making sure that primary school teachers have access to their pupils' parents criminal and medical records.What an absolute fucking roaster [emoji23] 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthefife Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 So there you have it Scottish Labour die-hards. It's now acceptable for Labour to suspend cllrs if they refuse to do deals with the Tories instead of the SNP. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 (edited) I wonder if Keith thinks the current Labour lead is mainly down to his say nothing/do nothing approach or to the monumental fuckwittery of the Tories.

Yep, unbelievable words from Starmer there. Still, when Labour and Conservative are now indistinguishable from each other and with Scotland continually rejecting the insular, backward looking (Starmer might think he's looking forward) Tories, the argument for Scotland to be a very different country is being made on a daily basis. And the big independence campaign hasn't even started. Rerr! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just appalled by this move - they are Unionists but think Starmer's stance just makes people focus on independence even more. As they say - why vote Unionist Lite when you can vote Unionist? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day, hopefully very soon, Labour supporters in Scotland will realise that. They must surely wake up to the simple fact that the kind of centre/left leaning policies, and those concerned with our relationship with the EU, that their Scottish voters want will be sacrificed like pigs at a Tory club in the interests of taking votes in England. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
