The SNP has more effective propaganda and their main opposition's just imploded.

Scottish Labour's main problems are:

It's not Scottish enough.

All the best people went to Westminster.

It's not Socialist enough for Glasgow.:doh:

Speaking of Glasgow, it appears the City Council want greater devolution themselves so they have a better chance of sorting the cities many problems. One of the SNP's greatest weaknesses is a mania for centralisation. I can't think of any of Scottish council authority they haven't annoyed....:hmmm:

Going back to England, I see "Devo Manc"'s on it's way.

Took them long enough to see that coming, I knew that from day one. :har:

Just goes to show how disillusioned with politics you lot are!:O:

Meanwhile, I was right enough about Unite backing Findley:

If he wins, expect Scottish Labour to try and out-Left the SNP. Since they've never really progressed beyond the 1970's, it shouldn't be too hard...

It would appear that the local devolution cat is out of the bag:

Considering that city and local authorities had way more powers a century ago than they do now speaks volumes about one of the little known side effects of WW1. Government centralisation to fight the war was needed, but it's ultimately proved to a bad thing. As an aside, LLoyd George would have nationalised the railways in the 1920's if he'd been allowed to.

Finally, if anyone thinks Salmond is upset about his effigy being blown up in Lewes, think again. I'll use Brian Taylor's quote from Burns:

"The mair they talk, I'm kent the better."

As far as Eck's concerned, more publicity is fandabidozi. He may be a pain in the backside, but he's far better at the political game than the three numpties.

Toff Boy and Gideon put spin on their lies about we are not paying the EU bill.

Quote:

The UK will only have to pay half of the £1.7bn budget surcharge demanded by the European Union, Chancellor George Osborne has said.
Speaking in Brussels, Mr Osborne said the UK would make two payments next year totalling £850m instead of £1.7bn in a lump sum by December.

More bloody lies from this bloody awful government.

Just change the word 'plans' to 'lies'.

The media reporting has been a bloody joke making out Toff Boy stood up to the EU and headbutted them with his mate that twonk george. two faced B'stards who only some days ago said no to the EU.

This is what Toff Boy said...Mighty EU I'm so so sorry for what I said and here is your money.

This is how it should have been...Up yours EU PIGS

It's not as if we could just opt out on the bits of the EU we don't like, despite what Dave, Nigel and the rest would have you believe. :O:
