    I know you’ve got your tongue in your cheek, Rev, but maybe you’ve captured something there.  Conservatism is paranoid.

    Conservatism = Fear (of change)

    Anent LibDems and Space Monsters.
    Aren’t we meant to be afraid of people who are different from ourselves? Surely this is the basis for Project Fear’s emphasis on “furriners”, in which case that the LibDems are not afraid of Space Monsters shews that they are similar if not one and the same.

      “Aren’t we meant to be afraid of people who are different from ourselves? Surely this is the basis for Project Fear’s emphasis on “furriners””

      Dammit! REALLY should have included a question about “foreigners”.

    VOTERS MOST AFRAID = Tories.
     
    I expect their greatest fear in Scotland is extinction!

    I seem to remember conservatives were also afraid of Tory Government.

    I see an article about a certain Panelbase poll has already just under 1,000 likes on the yesscotland site.  Not bad for 2 days worth. Already getting close to like figures on past welfare policy articles (which said poll also highlighted as important to Scots).

    Either the Lib Dems have less of a sense of humour than the others, or they know the truth about our benevolent reptilian insectoid squidlords.

    I was out leafleting for SNP this morning as I will be tomorrow. Our team consisted of 3 men and 3 women.

    “Dammit! REALLY should have included a question about “foreigners””.
     
    Plenty of time to put one or more in the next poll.

    In April 2011 the Lib Dems did leave Hollyrood in an Imperial Class Star Destroyer and returned in May 2011 in a Tie-Fighter.   …makes you think!
