What a messed up country we are Politicians pushing forward too much on trans rights --> A reason to not vote for a pro independence party Politicians too traditional in views on LGBT --> Another reason to not vote for a pro independence party Parties with the same mix of views but who don't see Scotland as a country --> No problems voting for them, apparently

I heard Ross Greer on radio 4 the other day. The BBC give the Greens of England almost no airtime (relative to Reform party, etc) and suddenly giving the Scottish Greens airtime...

Not sure but it was enough, they said, in the local elections in England, to noticeably depress the Tory vote, in the seats where they stood

What were these accusations? What has been 'syphoned off'? Do you think the climate is not a concern?

I saw she was asked if she had a message for the LGBT community, and she deflected to say something about Swinney's premiership - ducked the chance to say something more specifically reassuring.

This beats "Shall I be the cat?" Sounds like a learning English tuition video. Repeat after me:

This. Remember the various 'stalking horses' that challenged various Tory and Labour leaders in recent decades. I can't even remember all their names. It was all a waste of time, a media frenzy, a distraction. The unionist media would have loved it. They scream "stitch-up" now, but if he had stood, it would have been "SNP in split". The exception (supporting the 'healthy democracy' view) was Jeremy Corbyn who maybe stood as an outsider, but he was representing a well established tradition/position/wing of the party. As others have said or implied, in a normal country we could support the idealism of 'healthy debate' but in a country where most parties and media are controlled from outside the country, different rules apply.

Sounds like top trolling to me.
