Totally agree it's so easy to manipulate the masses, How could anyone possibly know they are being lied too, It's all over Youtube and social media that the Governments of the world are controlled by aliens (Lizards] disguised as humans. You can't tell me Big Donald and Wee Boris are not related. 🐸 🐸 both have blonde wigs too And this one, There's a worldwide cabal of Satan Worshipper's that are ruling the world, I even read both of these facts on Facebook so it must be true ? but I'm not sure which one to believe ? It could be both mind if those Lizards believe in old Nick Quote

Scottish independence and SNP support dips slightly in new poll A new poll has shown a slight dip in support for both Scottish independence and the SNP. Research by Survation suggests 52% of Scots back the country leaving the rest of the UK – a drop of two percentage points from November. The margin for error for most polls is ±3% so it's really a non-story... Edited January 27, 2021 by Bud the Baker Quote

oaksoft Posted January 27, 2021 Report Posted January 27, 2021 The polls are and continue to be too close to call. Even at 58% it was too close to call because of the large numbers of Don't Knows. I'll start getting excited when one side gets to 60% because that's what's going to be required to avoid Indyref3. As for Johnson's witticism, anyone taking that personally needs to get a life frankly. FFS, have we become a nation of souls so fragile that we can't handle the slightest bit of piss taking? Quote

BTW, nobody asked you to laugh at the joke. You were being asked to realise that it was a joke rather than a serious suggestion. Edited January 29, 2021 by oaksoft Quote
