Independentista. A passionate, thrawn, sometimes grumpy, old-fashioned, lefty atheist who wants an independent Scotland. NOW!

Independence. Better Forever!

70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.

It's a typically English bit of analysis as the journey distances 'darn Sarf' are often quite compressed. Few people travel any real distance for food shopping for example, compared to the average distance in Scotland being about 12 miles to a medium size store.
Pathetic analysis costs us yet again.

Naw. I'm going all out for it!

Perhaps start with personal, corporate and foreign donations.

Christ. Is that all.

Whoop de whoop!

I doubt you should be shouldering much blame for that Jill. I also think there may be a realignment of common sense. Why anyone seriously thinks Fromage and Twice have any answers is nuts. People will look to Reform collapsing councils and shy away hopefully. Thers still time.

Maybe someone should remind her she has a majority of around 3,400. That might sound ok, but add in how febrile politics is today and suddenly she's on quite the shoogle peg.

Can we be sure she had either with any real certainty? And did her spine perhaps succumb first?

I think you might have to get used to that feeling for the foreseeable, unfortunately.

I think they're so shit scared they've lost all ability for rational thought.
November 17, 2025 at 8:19 PM
Especially us. I really don't give a shit about them anymore.

She knew that.

The modernisation we really need in voting is PR.

And then factor in the doors blown open for Fromage to take power unconstrained by any written constitution.

What the worst you can imagine.

Our Nige will make it even worse for sure.
