You live in Cumbernauld. It would seem you're whole life has been poorly executed.

Gosh, make light of a man's spelling and he goes after you.

ps. It's 'your'.

[Bill Cosby]

I find it amusing that I'm being patronised by a poster who comes across as the type of guy that shouts sorry when he comes. Remind me of how you took the piss out of those two junkies shooting up outside your gaff.

There's a lot of good stuff in that manifesto but unfortunately getting the message out is going to be their downfall as it was Millibands. If it wasn't an important time to keep the SNP in power from my point of view, I'd vote Labour. Really poor leadership but I think they genuinely care about the greater good. The Tories are really pushing to the right under these vile people (almost makes you long for Cameron ). I know the whole Scots hating Tory thing is a cliche but fuck man, this mob are really bad. No one can honestly want a Britain they visualise. Hopefully England realise this but I doubt it very much.

Noam Chomsky said he would vote for Corbyn just there on Newsnight.

You say nothing interesting or original. Night.

Anyone who values chomsky's recommendation is already voting Corbyn

[Bill Cosby]

And yet you follow me around the board constantly having a pop. 

[Rogers Mako]

At some stage we need to accept that this is because the English are total cunts.

[Shteve]

It's my go to if ever there's a "Forest Whitaker Films" round on Pointless.

It's Chong Li.

As it is you're closer to the lassie in street fighter.

Fuck it. It's staying.

A poor idea being executed poorly seems a solid microcosm of the general trend of tory governance you're semi-ironically validating.

Good choice.

Well at least you're debating the post and not the poster. Fairly sure you moaned about that happening to you recently.

Why is it important to keep the SNP 'in power' at Westminster?

If you want another referendum on independence that'll come from Holyrood. The SNP are just a pressure group down there. They've zero chance of forming a government.

If you support the labour manifesto then vote for it.

What do you hope to achieve by sending down masses of SNP MPs?

[Zizou]

The more support they have over all, the more likely a referendum. I also think they were a more effective opposition than labour last term. Angus Robertson consistently challenged May on the big issues. Do you disagree with that? They represent Scotland's interests (in my view) better than any labour MP has done.

Not interested in another SNP bad thing tbh. It has been done to death, I'm sure we'd all agree.

[CritchSmile]

Mags answered his own question. They are an effective pressure group - Labour are not. Labour are too fractured internally to hold the government to account.

[Mr A]

I'd agree re Robertson but disagree re the basis of another referendum.

Think you're confusing SNP interests with Scotland's interests but hey ho.

Back into labour being totally incapable of delivering their msg.

The Shadow Education secretary having no idea how many children her policy to reduce class sizes will impact. Awful stuff.

But that's not why AP said he was voting for them. Not that I disagree with your assessment of labour.

[Drederick Shanktum]

wish the media were as quick to pull up every Tory in the land on answering every questions with "strong and stable"

Why are we so desperate for our politicians to be as polished as those in America, it's a fucking swamp on insincerity.

[Mr A]

They don't need to be polished but they should know the basics about a policy they're at the heart of.

Or take some bloody notes with you. No shame in forgetting some stuff under pressure but if you know that's potentially an issue then take some notes with you.

Why is the number important? If they start putting more money in to education improvement s will be made, that's obvious.

Here is at least a fairer overview of what has been leaked https://www.theguardian.com/politics/201...e-railways

[PHOODLE-OUt]

My Labour candidate is in the NEC. Not sure how I can give her my vote when I can't stand Momentum or what they and Corbyn are doing to the Party.

[Bill Cosby]

Refusing a referendum when a party got elected with it as a leading policy in their manifesto is a one way take to independence IMO.
