From now until the #election, I'm playing the Benny Hill theme tune at full volume and adopting a Kenneth Williams "oooh matron" voice, because it's now the only way to keep a grip on #reality
@NormanDunbar@PaulNickson@BashStKid@TCMuffin@spytfyre@Man it didn't matter, they didn't want the runway out of action, they wanted the argentines to know everything in their country was in reach of heavy bombers.... so don't escalate....
National service? Really?
No I'm not going to laugh. I have kids and would much rather they not get murdered for your arms companies chums and donors thank you.
Another thought, on #labour claiming some mystical flood of seats North of the border. Say that when it happens. We remember who did a better job of handling Covid, and if you had been in charge we'd have had the same death rate with London party telling "Scottish" branch what to do.
I mean, of course the #SNP might lose some. But it's hard not to when at one point it was 56/59 and Liebour Tories and LD had just one a piece. If that wasn't a statement of intent enough, why not have a UK wide referendum on keeping us on a leash or letting go (dumping, in fact as many would see it). Oil cash cow, wind power, water next.
2016 undid your threats and vows from 2014 and showed the clear difference at the border showing remain. Next vote should be EU/UK not yes/no.
Childhood best friend calls after a few beers
As usual I don't get many words in
They're disillusioned with #SNP as "they need to get own house in order, stop just saying you did worse things"
They're critical of gender reform and hate bill
They're considering voting for bloody Alba
They're sick of electric cars because battery mining and making is toxic and mostly in China
Sick of woke colleagues triggered by his company mental health awareness
Tells me not having daughter means I can't comment
Radical #political idea for transport
Make it illegal to drive past a bus stop with empty seats in the car. Even if you take them in the general direction of their destination and have to drop them at the last bus stop they can use before your route takes you off in the wrong direction. If you can drop them on your route you get to have the bus fare for petrol, electricity, maintenance etc.
And they can check your insurance and MOT from the license plate so you can't drive anyone daft. #Politics
@patrickharvie I was intending on switching my vote in the general election from SNP to green (as I can't in conscience vote for Joanna Cherry).
Green always got my councillor vote and second list vote in Scotland elections.
If the green party go for no confidence and side with the Tories you will also lose my vote for good.
Just so you know.
Sincerely
@spytfyre@patrickharvie When I vote SNP I'm not voting for individuals or an individual, I'm voting for Independence. No other party has the slightest possibility of delivering it 🏴🇪🇺
Oh I forgot the little #libDems had an amendment too (how cute/adorable, being allowed to play with the others [because their mum paid the other kids mums to tell their children they had to]) but they lost 25 to 303.
Does that make the papers? No? Just the #SNP one.. Ah of course. Shut up and believe our take on the news, peasant! #UkPolitics
Sunak: "congratulations on your return to front line politics David"
David: "and you're QUITE sure agriculture wasn't open?"
S: "David... The pigs?"
D: "I'll meet foreign agriculture ministers"
S: "No they're all clear on this"
D: "the plane could fly over a farm?"
S: "what would Samantha say?"
D: "she changed her name to Hamantha for me"
S: "sweet lord!"
D: "bacon is sweet"
S: "you still EAT them?"
D: "oh yes, salty too, extra salty, afterwards, I like they taste of my own..."
S: "DAVID STOP!"
In fact no, screw it, I'm going to finish. #Labour voters can hang their heads in shame if they vote that way next GE.
You're voting for a party that's comfortable and complicit in the large scale slaughter of children.
Vote . #green south of the border people.
@spytfyre That utter prat Polly Toynbee proposed nosepegs for everyone upset about Iraq in 2005, and just recently wrote this load of shit below, calling for much the same thing. Anything to prevent the stench of carrion wafting on the air.
