Eh? Don't talk shite. So if the Conservative and Unionist Party receive less than 50% , it's independence on Friday. What would be the point of carrying on with Union?

So why so scared of holding one then? There is an elected majority in favour of one at Holyrood right now, so if they have no chance of winning, why not hold it? Show it up for what it is? Beat them! Anyone voting Tory to spite the SNP or not voting tactically to eradicate the Tories because it means the SNP win a seat are pathetic IMO. The Tories are a much worse clear and present danger to this country (Scotland and the UK) than anything else. You should be comfortable that if another indy ref soon, no would win again (IMO). Five years of Johnson and the swing to indy may become irreversible. So, ironically, hatred of the SNP will ultimately hand them their prize. All IMO, of course.

If Scotland did finally regain its independence, then there would be the EU membership question too. That’s a lot of different pros and cons for people and they are personal and often separate from one person to the next. Basically there’s so many different narratives involved, it makes the polls virtually worthless for gauging outcomes in the future. Some people will vote on day to day policies that affect them, others in independence, and others still on EU membership. Then there’s the tactical voting to keep certain parties at bay.

Boab Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Loved the tweet Sturgeon put up of Jackass Carlaw’s tweets. One two weeks ago saying he was sending his postal vote and a tweet from today saying he’d cast his vote in clarkston. 😂 Lying hound !
