I honestly don't know how to vote this year, the SNP haven't done enough to retain my vote but no one else has done enough to win it either. Plus my local SNP candidate is Alex Neil and he definitely isn't getting my vote. I'll probably just draw a veiny triumphant jizzing cock on my constituency paper and vote for whoever I feel like on the list paper. or personality politics. Voting Green on List, will spoil the other one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scunnered man. As the Great Thomas Sowell says: "No one will really understand politics until they understand that politicians are not trying to solve our problems. They are trying to solve their own problems -- of which getting elected and re-elected are No. 1 and No. 2. Whatever is No. 3 is far behind".

iainmac1 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 The picture of Sturgeon holding this copy of The Sun for the following days front cover hasn't gone down too well. Probably not a great idea given the criticism The Sun has had this week over Hillsborough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect there will be much blow-back from it but Sturgeon is coasting in the polls - she doesn't need to tickle that newspaper's tummy, especially not after what's happened this week.

Anyone involved with the Hillsborough campaign would never promote the Sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orraloon Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Considering it's only 3 days till the election it seems to have gone awfy quiet in the media. Apart from folk like Torrance and Oliver stomping their feet shouting "It's no fair, them bad, bad SNP are trying too hard at winning again". I'm wondering if the unionist's tactic is to just try to convince folk that the result is a foregone conclusion, in order to discourage folk from bothering to vote?

Wee Wullie Rennie wouldn't agree though. It's been a 6 week adventure holiday for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
