Benjamin_Nevis Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I know Labour voters are gullible simpletons, but fucking hell surely none of them believe a leader with the title "Sir" is going to do anything about people called "Lord" and "Lady" Perhaps he could set a shining example of his disdain for the honours system by relinquishing his Knighthood? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just what we need here, folk already in jobs further hiking the house prices in Edinburgh, Stirling, Perth and Inverness. Or is Broon actually suggesting Scottish jobs for Scottish people ? Aye, this all just has the smell of "tell them whatever we think will capture another 10% or something". I was going to say that they must think we are dense.........................but then again why not try it again, there were plenty of people last time who said that all sounded quite reasonable. And as @Benjamin_Nevis points out, not many commentators have pissed themselves laughing as much as I have at the thought of a Knight of the Realm looking to abolish The Lords...............its like some crazed Netflix drama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTG_03 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Hang on, I thought the vow was already delivered. Aren't we as close to home rule as possible within a union? Labour first promised to abolish the house of lords 100years ago so surely that's been done aswell? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure @Jedi will be right along with some cut and paste pish from a party conference to confirm the above 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience Scots are disproportionately represented in the civil service and there would probably be a good number jumping at the chance to move home, if that satisfies your parochial xenophobia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a cynical tactic to deflect from their terrible record in Wales by continuing to bang on about Brown's constitutional obsession. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what exactly has hitherto been stopping them moving back to Scotland if they are so minded ? Interesting too that you reference the word 'home' in relation to Scotland yet accuse me of 'parochial xenophobia'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

History will judge him. After 2014, the Scottish Electorate has already had its say on these snakes. Bit of a redder for them attempting to tell us "whats good for us" when they only have one feckin MP up here, who is sadly my MP. Mrs LG quite likes Murray, as he does "good local work" - this is a bone of contention in our house, especially when I use the phrase "Unionist gammon lickspittle w****r" when referring to him. (appreciate you may disagree given his football affiliation.......) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leith Green Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Starmer said on R4 today that being part of the Single Market would not boost the UK economic growth. No credible economist agrees with this, its just a big fat lie in order that the thick racists in old Red Wall Brexitland that went conservative in 2019 vote Labour next time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTG_03 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Why is Gordon brown still seen as being relevant? He should be in a retirement home where he can explain to the carers that his vision of the UK is what's best and that he was once prime minister you know. I'd like to be able to vote for labour but as long as they treat Scotland like this they'll get nowt from me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s claimed in the media to still be relevant to the thick, tribal Scots - the qualifier is usually made (or was in 2014) that our wiser neighbours had seen through him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
