| 21. Author: desparado Date: Wed 11th Dec 2024. 19:07 Labour in Scotland have had plenty time to embrace independence, but they would rather sit idly by and watch their country go down the tubes along with HMS Britannia just for the chance to be in power. If as expected Starmers Government crashes and burns then where do Labour supporters in Scotland go ? Reform ? Maybe only the threat of a Farage run UK will knock sense into LiS ? What an opportunity we missed in 2014. Reply |

Author: AdamAntsParsStripe Date: Wed 11th Dec 2024. 20:36 desparado, Wed 11 Dec 19:07 The Labour supporters who are already anti independence will of course go to another unionist cause as they have shown time and time again. But, there are a significant number who are open to Indy and these are the ones that could sway things. The Scots Gov doing the right thing right now in mitigating UK Labour policies which are unpopular and putting the ball in their court. Zwei Pints Bier und ein Päckchen Chips bitte  Reply |
| 23. Author: jake89 Date: Wed 11th Dec 2024. 22:25 The problem is the Scottish Government can`t keep on mitigating. The money isn`t there. I genuinely don`t understand how people in England aren`t questioning Westminster policy. The English have been utterly shafted over the past 20-30 years. Surely they don`t buy the "England pays for everyone else" nonsense, though I suppose it`s now moved onto "it`s all the immigrants fault". I`d be furious if I was living down there, especially if I lived in the forgotten North East. Reply |
| 24. Author: pacifist Date: Sun 15th Dec 2024. 11:19 The only thing that will keep Labour in Scotland alive is the outrageous media. The big test will be the Scottish Budget. If that passes then it could be a positive run up to 2026. The polls are getting better for the SNP. The votes reform are getting are going to split the unionist vote on the list - they arent going to win any first past the post seats. What we need is an SNP majority of seats and votes. The independence vote needs to coalesce around the SNP. Reply |
| 25. Author: Tenruh Date: Sun 15th Dec 2024. 16:57 pacifist, Sun 15 Dec 11:19 I`d really like to vote for an independence party but feel the SNP have just paid lip service to independence in the last 10 years...can you please convince me otherwise? Can I also ask do you have a financial interest in championing the SNP? Reply |
| 26. Author: pacifist Date: Sat 21st Dec 2024. 15:14 You are entitled to feel whatever you want. I disagree. Independence will happen, just a matter of when. The reasons for Independence have never changed. Quite simply no-one can look after Scotland better than the people who stay here. It will happen when we get over 50% of the vote and the confidence to become Independent. I have been an SNP supporter and activist since my teens in the days when we were at 8% of the vote and lost deposits. The idea that the SNP do not want Independence is ludicrous. As is saying you support Independence but continually attack the only party that will deliver it. Reply |
