    Greg, I think you missed a trick by not featuring one, James Kelly, MSP. He seems to be the one they put up to say the daftest things that no half sensible person could admit to. His latest outing was earlier this week on the Sarah Smith show when he was up against James Dornan to explain how the Labour Party would have avoided the ferry tendering process.

    According to him, governments can go to public tender and design it so that Calmac can win the bid!!!

    I think his brother is a lawyer as well. Obviously it doesn’t run in the family.

    Excellent.

    Yes, they are the opposition in Holyrood right now but somehow I get the feeling the Tories might beat them into 3rd position in 2016. I find that idea hilarious. Not that I have any positive feelings for the Tories either – six of one, half a dozen of the other lot.

    As for the Westmidden, Labour might be the official opposition, but our guys and gals are behaving like the effective opposition.

    That’s a rare bunnit you’ve got on Reverend. We saw Kevin Spacey come out the back of the Old Vic wearing a white bunnit, he’d say beret, but when they make “How Scotland Was Won” the movie blockbuster after independence 2020…

    Brilliant – keep up the good work.

    Re Jackie T-rd’s recent doc on ‘The Fall Of Scottish Labour’ I presume that the recently unemployed and other participants received nice wee cheques for participating.

    Is there any way that we can find out how much they were paid and if said payments were at the normal rate for similar appearances.

  29. Al-Stuart says:

    Stu., loved your walk-on part. Though it was too quick.

    Was that a bagpipe under your oxter or some poor wee cat getting squished? 🙂

    P.S. WELL DONE GREG and your team. That video would be sad if it wasn’t so funny – and true.

    Does anyone wonder if Scottish Labour watch the Moodievision? Kind of wince at the thought. Must be hard knowing you have been so utterly rumbled by the voters and given the Royal P45 in the Fundament.

  33. schrodingers cat says:

    I dont think this is a wrong tactic by slab

    they have lost the socialist/left wing vote, that started to happen in 2011, 31%, then 2015, 25%, last poll i saw was lab on 19% for next year. How many left wing/socialist unionists are left in their support?

    unionists
    10% ukip/libdems
    15% tories,
    slab are not targeting these supporters, neither are we

    they are targeting the remaining 25% of the population who voted no and still voted labour in may.

    btw, this is the same demographic that the YES camp are chasing. we still need to convince another 10% to cross the floor

    i noticed that pensions were left alone by osborne…

    Andrew Tyrie – Member Treasury Select Committee. Ignorant, lying, arrogant, pompous and out of touch.

    Stewart Hosie Brilliant

    Osbourne furious

    O/T

    Been listening to Osborne, name to claim a 2:1 degree in History, spouting on the budget and of course hitting those on low paid work the hardest. Hellish.

    Reading from papers that his economists have scribed for him. A member of the Tory party that the NI, Scots and Welsh didn’t vote for, nor did two thirds of English people for that matter.

    You couldn’t make this up.

    Just Fab! Laugh out loud funny…you’ve excelled yersel’ here Mr Moodie…it’s because it’s so tragically true what they have become: the chief mourners of the dead socialists society.

    All they ever talk about is the past…senti-mentalists, all grief and anger.

    Socialism never left me, the party that reflected those values…abandoned Scotland and the rUK to the living hell that we now find ourselves a part.

    Thanks for sharing and keeping us all sane amidst the insanity of the times we’re living through.

    So how much was that lowlife cybernat Campbell paid for his cameo role and did he declare the earnings to taxman?

    Sorry, just trying to pre-empt the DR headline tomorrow.

    O/T but just to let you know – Harley-Davidson bikes + music all day in Brechin on Saturday. Hung the last of the bunting today – must remember to wear jeans next year rather than a skirt, so many accidents could have been avoided.

    Sorry Paula my memory is failing me but was Arthur Davidson ? of HArley Davidson fame ….Is that event in celebration of him being from your area ?

    I hope you got paid an appearance fee for that Rev lol

    Great video, it’s really weird the emotions I get watching Moodievisison, getting that stabbing feeling in my heart knowing that they assisted Westminster in the pillaging of Scotland and laughing at the same time.

    Excellent work Greg and Co
