    …unfortunately this is not far from the truth.

    In the 21st. century we still have people born to a life of extreme luxury and wealth. Yhey feel entitled to have a say in your life and government.A sytem that grants them the right to award title and privilege to those who support and promote them.

    This system was NEVER right but to continue it today is madness.

    Exactly.

    We are now in a period of State sponsored intimidation.

    Lists of people? Can anyone think of Countries where these activities took place to keep the populus down?

    Constant vilification of opposition to the status quo?

    Mass propaganda and misinformation?

    Im sure we can draw parallels. ….

    Tackety , you’re dead right it’s a dead ringer for mr McKenna and the other one looks like LORD Darling in a bad temper – maybe been asked a question he doesn’t wish to answer!

    I was never a republican , basically because the choice of Prime Minister and First Lady seemed woefully lacking and the Royals at least provided flashy tourist attractions which is more than can be said for the political perverts.

    But since I heard the purring I am now convinced I can live quite happily with Nicola Sturgeon as First Lady.

    Our day will come, when it does people will ask themselves what do we need royalty for?

    Balmoral Castle and Holyrood Palace will make brilliant tourist attractions and the coastline of our country will be ours to use as we see fit, not in the hands of a foreign absentee land owner.

    Where does that also leave the titled like forsyth, mcconnell or foukes? Answer, pot-less!

    #Clypegate

    Hmmm …found this on the Twitter feed this morning after basically joining it for the first time last night.

    Don’t know if this is it ..but startlingly, it is 51 pages long, but is not quite the list I imagined (as in page after page containing a few 1000 names). Instead, it is almost 1 name per page and what they said (so, in other words …around 51 folk in total).

    It seems this is just a selected few from the world of Twitter showing a few folks names, some SNP badges with names on it, and what they twittered in the past. To be honest, I’ve seen far far worse said in papers, and head a helluva lot worse at the football.

    Maybe this is it …but hey! Take it and trust it with a pinch of salt. This might just be pure nonsense.

    The (uneducated) class system. Merito cracy?

    The only purpose of the Royals is an impartial Head of State. If they are not impartial, they serve no purpose.

    The Tories have cut the essential £38Billion rail electrification in the North, but are spending £70Billion on HS2 to nowhere, which will make journeys in the North and Scotland longer. The way to stop congestion in London S/E is to have more investment/ jobs in the North and Scotland.

    Have checked a little bit of twitter, the same network address keeps appearing for the PDF file. Maybe there is something in it. It just might be the genuine article.

    However, if this is it …then oh, by god, Scottish Labour have indeed, and in a complete foolish move, poked a hornet’s nest here!

    The sheer stupidity of this idea, by basically tarnishing every nationalist supporter in Scotland over comments …on which, some are actually quite tame to be honest …is a complete vote killer! Who on earth would go back to voting Labour after this! This whole mad idea has served no one; least of all Labour, and it will be used against them again, and again, and again, each time they try to present the concept of ‘justice’, ‘fairness’ and ‘trust’. How could they after this?

    If that list hits the papers tomorrow, then every nationalist in the future will be hitting out at the future SLAB leader whenever they talk about ‘trusting’ Labour again.

    51 pages with 41 names, some pages with a whole single tweet. Much ado about nothing.

    SCOTTISH LABOUR’S CYBERNAT LIST
    A dying party uses tweets out of context to smear opponents.

    England played Scotland at Wembley on the 14th of November 2013. The kick off time was 8pm.

    Scotland took an early lead but England equalised just before the half hour mark. A “cybernat” took to twitter to express their frustration at the English team’s better-than-Scotland footballing skills.

    Fuck the English
    8:31 PM – 14 Aug 2013

    Scotland played England at Celtic Park on 18th of November 2014. The kick off time was 8pm.

    England scored their first goal on 32 minutes. A “cybernat” took to twitter to express their disappointment at Oxlade-Chamberlain’s well-placed header.

    8:35 PM – 18 Nov 2014

    Scottish Labour classify these tweets as “anti English abuse” on page 6 of the white space dossier.

    It also goes without saying, that the britnat abuse bot, is a fine repository of the utterly vile comments and death threats addressed to the people of Scotland, Scotland, the Scottish Government, the First Minister of Scotland, and any person who supported Scottish freedom from London colonial rule, during the referendum.

    The whole idea of political disagreement is to attempt to win the other side over by the strength logic and submission of your argument

    They’re not really trying to do that are they?

    Exactly the same way they dealt with Ireland and every other country who didn’t agree with them
    That method in itself proves their incompetence
    They don’t seem capable of original thought

    By provocation they hope for a violent reaction to which Redcoats have to be sent in to quell the Scottish rebellion
    If no violence occurs the British establishment will create some of their own under the guise of terrorist activity by the bad SNP supporting hordes

    In how many countries have we seen this behaviour from the British, and the State Broadcasters will dutifully fulfill their role in revering like tones (Oh the Sadness) while at the same time displaying Faux Anger (How could they be so awful to R United Kingdom) I mean we love Andy Murray

    Which of course will turn into “Never did like him these Scotch are all the same” unless Andy repents or denies being Scottish by virtue of Judy having an affair with a mysterious Englishman which now can be brought to light in order to prove his Worthyness to play at ( bowed heads) “Vimbledon” That’s the Boris Becker pronunciation

    We’re in for it folks, of that there can be no denying
    Hopefully we can handle it the same way we handle everything else they throw at us with the attribute all Scots possess, some in greater, some in lesser quantity but nevertheless we have it

    “The English won’t let us have weapons so we practice with”

    Sardonic, Sarcastic Humour

    Dougie Alexander(Ex MP) and David Clegg of the Daily Record tried this tactic with Mhairi Black’s twitter account. They went right back to when she was sixteen years old and told the world of the immoral life that she led.

    It backfired spectacularly for Alexander, who lost his seat to the highly intelligent Mhairi Black.

    Clegg and the Daily Record didn’t come out of it too well either.

    They never learn, do they.

    Have read the so called ‘dossier’
    Frankly I found it both childish and amateurish in how it was put together.

    But that can probably describe Labour in Scotland to a tee!

    No doubt the ever helpful MSM will embellish it and push it for all its worth, ignoring the simple fact that Labour just don’t want people to know abut the abuse that they and their activists took part in (example Ian Smart and others)

    What exactly is the aim of this idiotic exercise? That people swear on twitter? Isn’t there such a thing as blocking and even reporting?

    Is this Labour’s idea of trying to win seats at the upcoming 2016 Scottish Election? Labour seem to think that instead of formulating policy for the good of Scotland and its governance, it would rather attack the SNP and its supporters or in some cases perceived supporters.

    As a life long supporter of Labour, I really do hope Labour in Scotland just disappear up their own orifices!
