I wouldn't dismiss it. Basically what it shows is he'd rather tear down independence for Scotland than have it in anyone else's name.

It'll split the vote and weaken Nicola, if he was all about independence, he wouldn't have done this. 

The upcoming election is going to actually be worth watching, with Galloway, Sturgeon and Salmond all battling it out.

I like Salmond, but as Ani knows, have got a recent crush on Galloway. Both of them are tactically streets ahead of Nippy.

Did anyone note the Spider lookalike Ross Greer from the Greens bleating ? Poor kid will have to get a real job now.

Fucking Council tax, what we should have is a fairer system of a person tax, that should go down well.

He also claims that his intention is to gain additional seats to the snp and bolster the Parliament to a pro independent majority.

Whatever his motives, he's a nobber like the other lot; and the more they kick, bite and scratch each other the better.

It will potentially weaken the SNP if they take seats off them. But it won’t weaken the case for independence that’s just a crock of shit. What it will possibly do is lead to a very funny situation where krankie needs to ask for the support of salmond. Now that would be most amusing. 
 

I hope they do a live tv debate up here 🤣

. Like I say mate, stock up on your popcorn. The response off the SNP was absolutely childlike. Their arses will be twitching like a big lass on a bouncy castle.

Chuck in the other diversions too such as the groping, abuse, then Leslie Evans too, the stage is set.

Have you seen the statement from the SNP. Can't let go of his innocence. 

Short term the desire for independence will remain, but long term if they keep battling each other, then newer voters might start to think "why bother?"

Fuck em all anyway.

I've been watching Limmy for years. He's a fucking genius. Had him on in the background this morning while he was playing Dead By Daylight. He is genuinely one of the funniest fuckers on the planet in my opinion. His improvisations are brilliant.

Why do you like Salmond out of interest?

From a close friend who works in the assembly he is an arrogant, odious man whose personal politics belong to a best remembered past.

My Mrs has been brought it down when I met her, have to say doesn't do much for me.

Same with Still Game, but I had an affair with the lead actors wife so it sort of sullied it for me!

Just about sums the current state of affairs up. From today's Telegraph editorial. Could be paraphrased as "remainers proved wrong time and again - and this time utterly conclusively"

The three stages of remainer remorse

The coronavirus has forced even some of the most diehard Remainers to reassess the EU. The grief came in three stages. First, there was the UK’s remarkable vaccination programme. Having opted out of the EU’s procurement process, which Remainers predicted would be a catastrophic mistake, the UK was able to succeed precisely because freedom of action gave us the ability to be nimble and enterprising. It was the first great test of what Brexit Britain could achieve. It has been a triumph.

Second, the EU’s own efforts turned out to be abysmal. Brussels failed to secure enough jabs and its bureaucracy prioritised ideological ends such as European solidarity and federalism over the need to act fast. It lacked ambition, said Emmanuel Macron; the desire to “shoot for the stars”. The EU’s claim to technocratic competence, its insistence that only by acting in absolute concert can Europeans carry weight in the world, has been exposed as a sham.

Third, the EU’s retaliation against the UK – punishing us for its failure to protect its own citizens – casts serious doubt on its future. Even Jean-Claude Juncker warned that an export ban on European vaccines to countries with high rates of immunisation would damage the bloc’s global reputation. 

In times of trouble, businesses look to governments to guarantee their fundamental rights, including contract law or property, but the EU has shown contempt for these, retreating into protectionism and bullying. Businesses will have taken note, for example, of the infamous raid on a factory near Rome that supposedly dug up 29 million hidden AstraZeneca shots – proof, it was suggested, that the UK was getting special treatment. It was not. Most of the jabs were destined for the EU; the rest were going to poorer countries around the world.

The future lies in innovation and free enterprise: the EU appears hostile to both. It is authoritarian, reactionary, incompetent – all but the most fanatical Europhiles have to concede this now – and Britain’s post-Brexit model must be informed by its mistakes. The question is, can the UK see its own advantage? Why is the lifting of restrictions so slow? Now that we have vaccinated so many, we should not be talking of more rules and regulations but fewer, of moving in the opposite direction to Europe and liberating our economy and society.

We've done very well on vaccination Paul. It's one of the situations where being an independent UK has given us a competitive advantage (at least in the early stages).
