theshed Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 2 hours ago, BudgeUp said: I find it laughable that the drug deaths are being passed about like a ball to be honest. I'm in the meetings regularly, and during lockdown the Anonymous groups were put on the back burner. This caused more than a few relapses and I know of 6 folk who died due to addiction between March and September. The big problem just now is that drugs aren't getting into the country so that creates a market for fake valium (thats always been there), more severe cutting agents snd people experimenting with drugs that aren't their usual tipple. I'm sure i also read an article that our drug deaths are mostly in an older age group, and again, based purely on my experience this is true. The human body also can't cope with long term drug abuse. So what we are now seeing is the old timers that started in the 80s and 90s. The SNP criminally cut the treatment funding. But they can't change policy which is what is needed. The only time the Tories care about addicts is when the yearly statistics are out. You think the numbers will be even worse come next year due to lockdown ect?

Who are attempting, by many accounts, a power grab with the internal market. Who controls the drugs policy currently being used as a club by Unionists to hammer the Scottish Government? The Toaries! THAT'S why a flip over to them is a common response to critisism of the SG... But you're no daft, you know that fine well. You obviously didn't see Sturgeon being rag dolled by every leader at Holyrood yesterday. This is about not using powers she has. Cut backs to rehabilitation services on her doorstep that successfully treat non- Scots while the indigenous users are dying. Rates among youngsters dying are doubling. Putting paid to the myth about it just being the Trainspotting generation. This is all about Sturgeon and the SNP and their complete failure. Little to blame the Toaaaaries for here.

Brighton Jambo Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 On Twitter again today about the moves the Alex Salmond faction are planning to bring Nicola Sturgeon down. The analogy that springs to mind is football fans who have a strong and steady team that gets results but play rather mundane attritional football. They start demanding a new manager to play a more attacking exciting brand of football as they see that as the route to progress more quickly. We have all seen where this often ends up. I think that the plotting against NS is absolute madness (as pro union quite happy about it though!!) as she is a key part of the reason for SNP popularity. If she is brought down and Alex Salmond is seen to be in some way behind it they will lose votes and not least from female voters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon he went in to resign, started speaking, then half an hour later, when he was still stuttering through the first sentence, wee Nicola's heid was at 100% wobble capacity and she had no choice but to give him his jotters.

Space Mackerel Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I remember making the very valid point that the demographic nature that makes up Scotland and the older voters dying off over time makes Independence a certainty. I was castigated for making that comment for some bizarre reason. 😕 Now we have people on here making political capital out of the deaths of drug users. What a weird wee thread.
