ScotiaNostra Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 Starmer has dealt with the riots quite well, quick courts and jail time. Is always a disincentive to further rioting by anyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leith Green Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I note that the Scottish Secretary Ian Murray (sadly my MP) has been given £150m by the treasury "to spend as he wishes rather than being bogged down by bureaucracy". Bureaucracy, of course, means Holyrood. This is - almost the same amount - which would allow Holyrood to pay the Winter Fuel Allowance. Labour even state themselves that "..It will be seen by some as a challenge to devolution and the UK government rolling its tanks onto Holyroods lawn". Its odd that the magic money tree reappears when Labour want to dish out a few quid in order to circumvent devolution..................... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leith Green Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 More Ian Murray...... The fat twat met with Maquarrie, the Oz Investment bank today about Labours "GB Energy" plans. What this means is that Investment banks will make cash, underwritten by the UK govt, off the back of Scotland's renewables. Will we see reductions in bills, or better service? Perhaps we should ask Thames Water customers, who have also suffered from a deal which siphoned off Billions to the same Investment bank....... Change, eh? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Reeves is planning above inflation rises in social housing rents for the next ten years in order to... fund affordable housing! Meanwhile, they're responding to the threat of the far-right and their pogroms by adopting the policies of the far-right and throwing money at the Home Office to increase deportations. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 (edited) I might be wrong but up until the recent General Election I’m fairly sure there was a poster on here continually forecasting a bright new future for the UK under a Labour government. Whatever happened to that poster? Edited August 21 by Granny Danger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leith Green Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 7 hours ago, O'Kelly Isley III said: People in Scotland can hardly say that they weren't warned. Its become almost boring now. Pretty much everything Steven Flynn warned about pre GE - that GB Energy wasnt going to be anything vaguely sensible for the UK people, that the blackhole was ~£18bn (he was wrong, it was £20bn), that Austerity was about to return. The BBC, and particularly BBC Scotland, told us that these were scare stories invented by an SNP "on its knees". They were absolutely right about the SNP shitshow, but the fact that no sensible Mainstream commentator picked up the rather f**king obvious holes in Labours story is a b*****ding disgrace. I am particularly f**ked off because the Viceroy of Scotland (Ian Murray) is my MP and has been given £150m by the treasury to spend as he wishes. Doubtless on projects that he can say "why didnt the SNP do that?". Devolution? I am afraid that every single thing they do in Scotland from here on in is to destroy the Holyrood parliament, then say "we told you so".

DA Baracus Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 What's that? Rent on social housing to rise by more than inflation every year for 10 years? https://www.theguardian.com/society/article/2024/aug/21/social-housing-rents-to-rise-uk-affordable-housebuilding-rachel-reeves More 'affordable' housing is the apparent planned outcome but such a thing doesn't exist for most folk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have family members who said this. The problem is they all know I am Independence minded, and - due to the self inflicted clusterf**k that the SNP has become - it's difficult to get into any meaningful debate about issues surrounding Labour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
