Flora MaDonald Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Some folk will try to ridicule you for believing this stuff but this guy knows what he is talking about, and he's not adverse to criticising the SNP if he thinks he needs to. Anybody who thinks the secret services don't get involved in elections are just being totally naive. I rather take the word of a former ambassador.

mariokempes56 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Appalling. Truly woeful and Murphy becomes more detestable on every viewing (its obvious he feels in safe home turf within the BBC). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Of Paisley Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 It's well noted that Murphy hides behind closed doors rallies with carefully chosen Labour activists and his apologists at the BBC and STV (Ponsonby). He knows fine well that if he dared try to get out and about in the way Sturgeon does he will find out in no uncertain terms a few home truths about what people think of him.

mariokempes56 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I've recorded this to watch later as I'm at work. Should I not bother? It really was terrible. Easily the poorest there has been by a very long way. Murphy is an obnoxious bully, Rennie is still being knitted and Ruth is just Ruth.

DonnyTJS Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 It's well noted that Murphy hides behind closed doors rallies with carefully chosen Labour activists and his apologists at the BBC and STV (Ponsonby). He knows fine well that if he dared try to get out and about in the way Sturgeon does he will find out in no uncertain terms a few home truths about what people think of him. How does that mesh with the whole 'soapbox' tour in the lead-in to indie-ref? I thought a common view (on here at least), was that he was hoping to provoke the sort of reaction you describe (egg-gate), calculating that it would turn undecideds / soft-Yeses to No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Of Paisley Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Donny, I wasn't actually mentioning Murphy getting pelted with a few eggs in terms of a 'reaction'. My take on it is that he his hiding in his bunker spewing these whoppers about the likes of pensions, but knows that if confronted he will be shown up for the spineless liar that he clearly is. On the scale of that old wifie that confronted Brown in the last election and was labelled a bigoted old woman off-camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flora MaDonald Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I thought Ruth Davidson was appalling. Very shouty and just talked over everyone else. She seemed to think austerity was a great laugh. Saw on Twitter Michael Stewart was getting aggro from the National Front after the Derby today.

King Of Paisley Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Johnson makes Norman Tebbit look cuddly in comparison. If that khunt could get away with it, he would have tanks on the streets up here, much is his loathing of Scots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHTOWER 1314 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) I am getting peeved off with all these lunatics from other parties having a go at the snp every single day in live.We even had david tawbag cameron losing the plot today. Rather than concentrating on getting their own votes they are slagging off nicola sturgeon and the party.Its making even more folk determined to vote snp so we can get rid of these clowns.

Maq Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Brilliant response from Nicola. 6 months ago the Tories were telling Scots to lead, not leave the union. Now they think Scotland's elected representatives having any actual influence will be 'mayhem' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
