Was over for Starmer when BoJo called him Sir Beer Korma. Like Winnie giving a Hearts player a nickname.

Quite mad all these stupid cunts who parroted “I will never vote Tory” and all you had to do was dress them up in a sky blue suit and they fire in. It’s that thing where you kind of hope people need to suffer for what they vote for but then we’re all in the same boat anaw  You’d think they’ll make such an arse of the councils that come GE they’ll have lost popularity but we’re here after Brexit so as long they’re running their racist schtick folk will shoot themselves in the foot as long as it means Ahmed is being shot as well.

The shower of cunts have just switched allegiance. The overall turnout is down and that's likely to be a large number of complacent SNP supporters. So far it's been a strong showing for them, but the list vote is where we'll see it shake up more considerably.

SNP held banff and buchan by 364 votes, although the tories gave up a fifth of the vote on that one.

If we’re all being honest there genuinely isn’t one party you can have confidence in at the moment.
Was a tough pick.

Will be funny seeing these guys in England run the local council warchests and make sensible planning decisions.
 Local healthcare and community services will be closed down and property developers building on top of them. Then the English will become even more embittered with their shit lives and continue to vote for parties against their own interests like the mugs they are

The next step is to say reform failed because they weren't cruel incompetent vicious right wing enough, and that only Restore really know how to deliver austerity deliver brexit fix the migrant crisis hang flags from lamp posts.

Right, that’s the folk done their bit. Get us out of this union now or we’ll do it ourselves.
Since SNP lost the old guard, they are 100% devolutionists who have feathered their nest, likely with British agents scattered throughout (Angus robertson the most obvious). You got your mandate. Get on with it you slags

Greens take edinburgh central. Lentil munchers of the world unite

Stephen Flynn now an MSP. Future leader? Seems to at least have a bit about him Swinney isn't inspiring a nation to go independent.

Lot of tired and controversial faces out of the SNP, no doubt there'll be others in there who are equally problematic but new blood can't be a bad thing.
More Greens is a positive for me as well but suspect it won't matter a jot about getting the referendum we need.
