Beware of politicians who blame vulnerable groups for your problems - they’re the ones not talking about making your life better but about making someone else’s life worse.
Their target may be refugees or a religious group or an ethnic group or trans folks. But whoever the vulnerable minority is, the message is basically the same: you’re supposed to believe that denying these people their rights will somehow help you and your family. It won’t, of course. Don’t buy it.
All those rats jumping ship had 14 years of troughing. They should be prevented from further profit related in any shape or form to this barren time for the rest of us.
The muppets on the #Guardian might consider that voting for parties that care about Scotland (welfare, housing, the SNHS, the two child limit) might also swing voters. They might (Labour) consider NOT parachuting in candidates from England with no knowledge of their constituencies.
#Labour and the #Conservatives do not care about Scotland. Just bums on seats, and resources.
The Chatteratti are saying that the #Conservatives can't find enough candidates. Is it time for those of us on the revolutionary left to accept our patriotic duty, bite the bullet, scrub up, cut our hair, raid the charity shops for suits, and rock up at Central Office chorusing "pick me"?
@glynmoody If only he had read the manifesto that led the #Conservatives to a landslide election victory rather than fighting against all the good bits
