‘As for Covid, aye, forget the government kept plenty, including you, sitting at home for months’ Deflection, when I literally responded to something you said 😂 2024 and still blaming Covid for all the countries problems… Oh, apart from when it’s the SNP of course. Double standards.

Wee bit of projection there. You’ve shown you’re a very gullible person by hanging on the Tories every word. I worked right through Covid thanks. I had exactly zero days off, furlough, sickness or anything else. Suppose you have little else so lying is worth a shot.

That doesn’t mean all countries do the same as the Tories are proposing. After the last 14 years, it’s baffling anyone would trust them to run a bath, let alone national service conscription. We know you’re an apologist for Tory failure though, so it’s no surprise you’ve bought into yet another gimmick. Maybe if they do get back in & it doesn’t work, they can still blame Covid though. 😂

Another pandering policy that will never happen. Bet you thought the Rwanda plan was a great idea as well. 😂

And three great choices by the people who backed them, eh? 😂😂 Hindsight is a wonderful thing… for some

So… voting for Brexit & Bojo, these were smart, informed choices? 😂 Ive not changed direction on the NHS at all. My point remains the same, the Tories management of it has been appalling. There isn’t any crying on Brexit from me. Just a great, big ‘I told you so’ to those that voted for it. Same with VAR, eh?

Enough for a voting majority were, yes. Both in the Brexit vote & then for backing serial liar, Boris Johnson. The NHS has prospered and delivered a far better service in decades gone by. To think it’s ‘stupid’ to think it could be run better is utterly redundant. We literally have historic evidence it can be ran far better 🤦‍♂️ And obviously voting no was the right call. Yet again, we know this by literal evidence of what has happened since we left. Brussels calling the shots was an hilarious argument for Brexit. Like there was any real chance we would have been able to take back full sovereignty with a land border with ROI 😂😂 Brexit delivered all the pain & never even gave back sovereignty. Anyone that backed it got exactly what they deserved. Just a shame the rest of us got the same.

The British public were sold (very obvious) lies regarding Brexit. Anyone with a shred of understanding knew it would hurt our economy more than benefit it. They knew it wouldn’t mean £100s of millions more a week for the NHS. They knew it wouldn’t bring down net migration & protect our borders. They also knew in 2019, Bojo didn’t have an ‘oven ready’ Brexit deal & it was reasonable to assume he was lying. All that came to pass & the fault of the terrible handling of post Brexit vote is squarely with the Tories. ‘Oh well, we voted for it’ is hardly an excuse for the execution of Brexit.

Lots of words that make absolutely no point whatsoever. You just crack on defending the Tories. They’ll definitely fix all the problems if the UK vote for them this time. I know they promised that last time & the time before that & the time before that, but this time they mean it. 😂😂

Imagine thinking it’s just a coincidence that the rest of the UK is seeing practically the exact same issues as Scotland, but up here it’s all the big, bad SNP’s fault 😂 If Scotland is such a burden, taking more money from the UK than other areas, why are they so desperate to keep us? 🤷‍♂️ Almost like it’s an old, tired & debunked argument. 😂

Great argument that Scotland being in the UK, does not work for other parts of the UK. That keeping us in the union, severely disadvantages everyone else. Makes you wonder why they are so desperate to keep us eh… Must just be out of patriotic duty & the kindness of their hearts. Honestly, arguments that were debunked a decade+ ago & some have still not worked out how ridiculous they actually are 😂😂

‘I’m not standing by the Tories’… Proceeds to defend them on practically every point while blaming the devolved Scottish government for systemic UK issues 😂😂 If you think the Tory record can be defended, fine. We know as an absolute matter of fact, that’s defending - higher taxation - higher deficits - higher national debt - higher undocumented migration - poorer living standards, services, NHS & social care. These points are literally and undisputedly worse than they were when the Tories came in. But, but, but… Covid 😂😂😂

Out of interest, would you be willing to let us know who you’d vote for? (Know you said ALBA but not sure if that’s locked in, they might not stand anyone in the area). Also, what bills into law are you talking about that have done such damage to your views of them?

Imagine still standing by the Tories 😂😂 what a laugh. How’s that recovery going? Last time I checked the UK still had - far higher taxation than 2010 when the Tories came to power - far higher debts & deficits - declined NHS parameters such as waiting lists & emergency care - declines in living standards with more forecast - record bills & almost no reversal on last years cost of living crisis - decline in social care, dental care, schooling, a housing crisis, record net migration, record undocumented migration, failing privatised water services. The list goes on. If someone went into a casino with £1,000, lost £950, then won £50 back in their last roulette spin. Would that give you reassurance on their ‘recovery’ But no, this next term is when the Tories turn it all around because they grew the UK economy by a tiny fraction in the last 12 months. 😂😂

Nope, they’re stupid if they vote for the Tories again with all the overwhelming, repeating, factual information regarding their incompetence in running the UK.

Things can only get better 😂😂 Brilliant

General election incoming for July. Bye bye Tories. Let’s hope the masses are not stupid enough to ever vote them into power, ever again.

Replace Scottish with British in practically everything you’ve said & we’ll maybe get the penny dropping on the weakness of this argument. 🤷‍♂️

The increase seems entirely fair given last 12 month inflation & average increases to salaries/ pensions. It looks like they’re absorbing a lot of the hit on life generally being more expensive. Why would anytime think it’s reasonable for them to absorb all of it? 🤷‍♂️

Welcome packs arrived today. Really decent for the money. Scarf and wee sports bag thing which will come in useful I’m sure. Then pen & a torch keychain. They got back to my request in early May after enquiring late April. Reference for my two kids suggests between 90 & 100 applicants (at that time). Not bad but also a fair bit of room for improvement. 👍

Well done Wolves, a very sensible & positive move. Would be great if the vote gets enough support. Other leagues would follow pretty quickly I imagine. Sadly I don’t see it passing as clubs will likely be influenced by the league, UEFA & FIFA.

Couldn’t have been sitting anywhere near me then 😂 Joke… Know there’s some that can’t appreciate one. I was shouting at him & Jamieson though, both were utterly terrible when they came on. I think that’s still allowed in the big boys game in 2024.

That’s fair, guess the flip side is, everyone will be in celebration mode so hopefully stay off his back. I imagine Hemmjng is the only possibility given todays signing & lack of game time for Baccus.

Will be interesting to see what kind of team he plays tonight (and Saturday). What I’d like to see: - Play James Scott from the start in both matches. See if we can find any indication of decent player in there. Looks like we are stuck with him so may as well give some minutes. - bench for Baccus, Strain & Hemming (assuming they are committed to moving on). Give them a bow as subs late in the Hearts game. - Same for Flynn, give him a goodbye to the fans, as a player at least. - any young prospects we can get a look at, starting? Not really hearing much of the youngsters recently, bar the ones out on loan.

Dry yer eyes.
