Pool Q Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I've no issue with a church taking a stance on politics, or with people giving some weight to what they say. I don't think anyone should allow themselves to be told how to vote by their church, but in reality don't really believe many do now.

Cove_Sheep Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 This has me even more paronoid, i am going to be shitting myself come friday although i found this "All the indications are that Banff and Buchan delivered a majority for Yes, against the trend in other parts of Aberdeenshire, and I am immensely proud of the people who chose hope over fear. Elidgh Whiteford" Go and read what a nowcast is. Are you not hoping for your UKIP chums to nick it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Return of Yermaw Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 What would make another 19th out of interest? -40 seats? -30? Murphy returned? My sole interest in this election is Clark returned, SNP can take 58 for all I care. If clark loses I'll be disappointed, I'll be disgusted by the sheer stupidity of my fellow constituents, but it won't come close to the heartache of Indyref. I fail to see how you can be disgusted by North Ayrshire constituents refusing to ever vote Labour again. You are looking solely and perhaps with blinkers at the perceived quality of the candidate - I suggest the majority of voters are solely looking at how they have been sold down the river by Scottish Labour. To call them stupid puts your attitude very much in with the attitude of the Scottish Labour gravy-train....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your pal Katy loses her seat it would be pretty disgusting to blame the "stupidity of your fellow constituents". You might want to look a bit closer to home? You sound like a nasty CyberSoc.

killiefaetheferry Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 To be fair, Scunnered is an obviously intelligent chappie by dint of his club allegiance - he is, however, surrounded by stupidity regardless of how they vote up thar in 'North Ayrshire'. (By this I'm talking about anywhere north of Stewarton). The only places with stupider-type people in Ayrshire are up the valley and Kilmaurs. Maybe Saltcoats too........

killiefaetheferry Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I found the Survation/Daily Record datasets for ScotGoesPop: A few interesting points: Should Scotland be an independent country? Yes - 45.8% No - 46.9% DK - 7.2% Yes - 49.4% No - 50.6% If there was a referendum ... on whether the UK should remain a member of the European Union, how do you think you would vote? Stay In - 52.5% Leave - 26.5% DK - 21.0% Stay In - 66.5% Leave - 33.5% Well done you for a name check by James Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With more brain cells they could follow South Ayrshire and continue to give large numbers of votes to the Tories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hampden_loon2878 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Am hoping for ukip to nick votes from the conservatives, saying that it wouldn't bother me or much of the northeast if we left europe, our fishing grounds have been stolen from us plain and simple,,, it surprises me no one from aberdeen bothers with the industry as that was what the place was built on the back of and it will still be there a long time after the oil has dried up Go and read what a nowcast is.

wee-toon-red Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Hope so Couldnt take another Sept 19th Nothing in a general election, or even a Scottish election for that matter, could come close to being another 19th for me. The only thing that could rival that disappointment - and would probably be even worse - would be losing a second referendum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that could rival that disappointment - and would probably be even worse - would be losing a second referendum. That's why there won't be another referendum for some time,far too gutting. If a second referendum tis lost it will mean no independence for a long, long time. The only thing that would get a referendum in the next few years would be UK leaving Europe against wishes of Scots voters. A referendum about FFA however might make things interesting.

Scunnered Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Sorry pal You can be excused... Slightly.

Whats your beef with Patricia Gibson ? She's more Tory than a Tory, her campaign has been built on smears and she's been proven to be a liar on a number of occasions... And she gives the most bizarre answers to questions I've ever heard, she'd be better doing a Murphy and avoiding the question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
