SNP are lying b******s as well !

[James310]

I don't get the obsession points, look at the title of the thread. It's about the SNP.

Is everyone who posts multiple times on the Tory thread (9,000 posts and rising compared to less than 3,000 here) obsessed and relentless with the Tory's? Imagine being critical of someone posting about the Tory's on the thread about the Tory's.

I get to some the SNP is like some kind of religion though but this thread is about the SNP.

What form does the religion take?

Deaths in Scottish prisons at record high.

Heard the author of the report talking about it on Radio Scotland. It appears the main reason for this is what she euphemistically described as "self medication" - ie drug use in prisons

For someone so anti SNP, you don't half post a hell of a lot about them, do you think by continually posting what you post, you're going to change people's minds.

I couldn't care less about changing people's mind's and would find it odd if people did after reading stuff on here. Nobody is going to change anyone's mind on here.

I enjoy politics and have an opinion, sorry about that, but it's allowed isn't it?

Genuine question, do you post on political forums or just here? I know you post almost exclusively on The Holy Ground when this be is predominantly a football forum.

[James310]

It's getting a bit angry and personal again, never a good sign when the discussion is about me as a person. I know I have different opinions so sorry about that. I will bow out for a bit, but this thread is supposed to be about the SNP.

I've honestly never seen a post from him on football matters.

Not sure how my post could be taken as angry or personal, but fair enough.

Maybe the break will be good for you.

Do do you have a problem with news and information critical of the SNP being highlighted ?

It certainly seems to me that some posters on this site would be happy with censorship of SNP criticism which would be a very dark pathway to go down.

Not at all, criticise away if you think there's an argument to be had to criticise. Like any political party, they make mistakes but some posters are relentless in their anti SNP agenda.

The media and opposition parties in Scotland have relentlessly tried to attack Nicola Sturgeon for years. They constantly try to sling mud in attempt to force her to resign. Their motives are completely transparent. The people who behave this way tend not to say a bad word about the Tories, for example, who have been the worst Government the UK has ever had. It's difficult to take them seriously.

Really, I have plenty of bad words about NS, but I regularly slated Bozo 🤡, Hancock and Truss … and Sunak is also in my verbal crosshairs

Yawn. Accused by a political opponent, and this is apparently big news. And it relates to the ferries too! Two grievances in one "article". A slow day at Herald Towers.

Those in favour of Scotland not leaving the union have already scored a big success on here by getting the independence thread closed down, why would they stop there?

Fair observations, warranted criticism and quality journalism should always be welcomed. In fact, they should be strongly encouraged. Unfortunately, there tends to be very little of that these days.

Typical one sided point of view …read the thread there were both sides of constitutional change debating …Admin closed it down due to personal digs, by guess what both sides 🙄

I think , if you looked closely you would find that the SNP lovies were equally liable for the thread being closed down.

But you seem unable to find any fault with your own chosen side.

I think they were pointing out that particular poster posts almost entirely about Scottish independence and the SNP. Hardly ever on other threads on the Holy Ground and pretty much never on the main forum.

People are of course free to post whenever and wherever they like, but that is slightly odd IMO and does seem like a bit of an obsession with those 2 issues, given it's pretty much all they ever talk about on .net.

I suspect this thread is heading the same way.

Does anyone think the title of the thread (and the Tory one) doesn't help? The Labour one appears to be a bit more neutral and doesn’t appear to constrain discussion.

I guess because they're currently powerless in Scotland and England they don't offer so much to get heated about.

A change in the political wind to the extent they threaten the SNP's hold in Scotland would see that change.

I agree, both titles tend to invite nasty comments.

Though, TBH, I'd be struggling to post anything remotely positive on the Tory thread.
