Stuart Dickson Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 You were quick enough to shout Tartan Tories at the SNP for voting on the side of the Tories so quit crying. You voted with Farage and are quite rightly being called out for it. Oh dear. Next you'll be calling Brian a Quisling. I do hope you reflect on the irony of your posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the lesson in politics but you really are not wanting a discussion, just the chance to force your opinion on others. You know that Bud The Baker was the person who agreed with me just before the referendum. Voting remain but not too bothered either way. Less than one week on and apparently he's decided that the vote he wasn't too bothered about has led Britain goose stepping down a road we all deserve cause anyone voting leave was voting for UKIP. You'd think if he'd seen that as a danger he may have said something before the referendum. It's interesting that it seems to be the agenda of Nationalists on here to over dramatise what is going on, clearly backing the opportunistic nature of the power at all costs SNP. The rest of us should not be sucked in by such obvious propaganda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One group in Scotland that hasn't been outlawed legally tried to get ethnic protection for Scots. Jim Murphy was repeatedly called a Quisling. Michelle Mone claimed the abuse got so bad she moved to England. And several Nationalist websites that we linked to by the SNP happily and publicly targeted business owners and celebrities in Scotland who backed No. Even on here there was abuse. I'm not wanting to take this topic off course but to deny what happened in 2014 is ridiculous. Sorry Stuart, I didn't quote you correctly.......you actually said more than 30 a day!! I've admitted my mistake, can you admit yours or can you back up your "more than 30 a day" accusation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of us should not be sucked in by such obvious propaganda I wasn't too bothered because the campaign had degenerated into Round 1 of the Tory Party Leadership contest. I considered not voting or voting Leave tactically but I quickly decided against the latter as I couldn't vote the same way.as Nigel Farage. I never thought there would be no consequences - and yeah I'm quite happy for NS to exploit the vote but in the end it makes little difference to me because I always reckoned there'd be another IndyRef either as a result of this or after the next set of Westminster/Holyrood elections. Next I never said voting Leave was the same as voting UKIP but it's undisputable that Farage is a more credible politician as a result of Thursday's vote - and people who voted Leave contributed to that. **************************** Meanwhile once again you bring down the tone of the debate by accusing people who disagree with you of being Fascist. This sort of language isn't just offensive to me, it's offensive to people whose relatives suffered at the hands of the Nazis. http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/13055068.Jewish_group_blasts_Starkey_Nazi_slurs/ Quote THE outburst by English historian David Starkey likening Alex Salmond to Adolf Hitler has been strongly condemned by a Glasgow Jewish group. Mr Starkey, a regular television pundit, said during a Tory fringe group debate at Westminster this week that Mr Salmond was a "democratic Caledonian Hitler, although some would say Hitler was more democratically elected". But it was his other remark – that for Mr Salmond "the English, like the Jews, are everywhere" – that prompted outrage from the Glasgow Jewish Education Forum. The body stated: "Glasgow Jewish Educational Forum has worked closely with the Scottish Government while Mr Salmond has been First Minister. Offensive comments comparing him to Adolf Hitler are not in the best interests of the Scottish Jewish community.

I've admitted my mistake, can you admit yours or can you back up your "more than 30 a day" accusation? I wouldn't regard it as a mistake, even if theres no way of proving it. I know many cases go unreported just as racist incidents go unreported everywhere. I worked on Lewis a number of years back and I saw it first hand...not just with the English guys either, but anyone from the mainland. I'm not trying to make an issue of it I'm simply trying to put Oaksoft sensationalist claim into context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Dickson Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Huh? You're the one claiming anyone voting leave has boosted the right wing in UK politics. I'm the one pointing out that nothing has changed even if Natsis everywhere are trying desperately to make political capital out of trying to spread hysteria.

I've been living with the fact that my house will need to be sold for over 3 years now but we'll not go into the ins and outs of my divorce yet again. Of course I have empathy, but no-one has been affected at all as yet. The UK is still in the EU despite the referendum, and even if Article 50 is triggered there's nothing to say that Europeans living here would be forced to leave. In fact exactly the opposite appears to be true. All sides in the debate appeared to accept that we needed immigrants in the UK to keep our economy on track and the closest anyone on the leave campaign came to what you describe was Farage saying we wanted a points based system that would give us control of immigration so we would only bring in the ones who were going to work here. No-one appears to be forcing anyone out - that's emotive pish and you should know better - however if things are as bad as the SNP are making out perhaps these EU immigrants might not want to live here anymore.

FFS Taken in by what bollox? Apparently we want a point system and to control EU immigration. Apparebntly it is currently uncontrolled. How do you regain control of uncontrolled immigration without removing some of the people who have already settled here? It's a puzzler Jeff no doubt about it.

Contrary to popular belief I don't think the whole of the UK is looking to me for wisdom, perhaps they should though - especially when you see the number of dafties getting all emotional about this. As a result of your posts I decided to put on Sky News fully expecting to see whole scale house clearances, and news of massive queues at all our airports as EU immigrants start to flee. Surprisingly enough though the only report on this was a Sky reporter interviewing some Polish women living in Boston and of the two interviewed neither felt anything had changed. One lady said that "some people are scared but I'm not" and another said that she hadn't encountered any racism in the UK despite reading some comments and stories on the internet. Never mind I'm sure you'll be able to track them down and tell them why they should be scared, very scared despite nothing having happened.

BuddieinEK Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 I'd say that voters who voted us out had a far bigger influence than project fear. Personally, I think it is just possible that many different people had their own personal reasons and that many of them would have been for what the individual voter perceived as the greater good.
