That’s right, you stand for pricing the poor out of power. That’s all people need to know about your policies, frankly.

Labour didn’t do enough, no, given they left the left behind.

What have the SNP done about it? Oh right, favoured Murdoch.

Except, of course, I’ve done no such thing. You’re fighting windmills as usual, in your pursuit of any lie you can tell. I’m not defending anything, I’m pointing out your rabid attack on Britain.

…The thing is, while they are as history puts them, your own behavior is
very, very far from their views, Mike. They were not anti-Democrats.

Ah right, the facts are wrong, you’re going to use denial for power. You’re the fat pig around here, noble.

Your clam was an absolute, so yes, you were quite wrong. Thanks for admitting this.

And when the Falklands come online? And what about the minor fact that the Isles are not interested in rule from Scotland, if London can offer them a better deal?

The labour of Connolly’s time was left wing, and centralist is not right wing, even today. Mocking? Not at all, you’re engaging in revisionism – parties can change, as Labour did, but Labour did a fantastic job, especially in the era of Bevin and Atlee.

And as usual, you’re talking nonsense. I support self-determination, including for the Palestinians (the two-state solution), Scotland AND the Isles. Not selectively.

And of course, the region you live in isn’t a country yet, you’re confusing your aspirations with the situation as it stands. You’ve got your vote, for flip sake – there’s no NEED for much of the denial and lies slung by the Scottish right.

Ah yes, the usual outraged squalling of a good little far right totalitarian when he’s caught out accusing people of mental illness with no reason or evidence again.

I don’t care what you copy/paste, you’re no better than any of your thugs.

Almost certainly because of the sock puppet situation.

As to Scotland…
