The kind that instigates pile ons on people who agree with the core message but not the fringe lunatics who have taken over a party I used to idolise.
The kind that's created a pervasive us vs them system of politics instead of looking for consensus.
We won't get far with this.

Ive been accused in this thread of being non constructive, of being a troll, of being a unionist, of being a child and many others.
Simply for disagreeing.
Ive supported my country and all of you since I was 16, now I'm shouted down because my opinion doest toe the party line.
How inclusive.

And I support yes, as I always will.
Put a vote in front of me and I'll only vote one way, but I won't fly the flag for the thieves and scoundrels in the snp any longer.
That much is for sure.

If having principles i don't deviate from makes me an idiot, then I guess I am.
I don't vote for people who have no clue how to deliver on the promises they've made.
The snp have spent the last 10 years taking us all for granted and stealing from their own supporters. You want to vote for that?

They took no for an answer. Sometimes you have to stop asking politely and take what's yours.
No, I won't vote for people who put identity politics at the heart of their agenda. I'd rather not vote at all. If everyone did the same, and actually came together as a force, things would change quickly

Poll after poll showed support for indy but the snp did nothing to capitalise preferring to focus on divisive identity politics.
They lost me at that point. I will never vote for a London centred party or the extremists in alba.
Until a moderate pro indy force is formed, I'm politically homeless

Still the tories, red and blue. Glad we live in Scotland where health is devolved and our snp aren't following the same track.
Oh wait...

The tories caused the damage on this one. The journey to private healthcare started under David Cameron.
Just like independence, it's another battle that we lost. We have to stop blaming the winners of these debates and look within for real answers.
Even if you didn't vote Labour, it's coming.

No, you just dont get it, It's only free speech if they say it is.
For the avoidance of doubt, this is what British humour looks like.

We need a revolution of the working system that makes work worthwhile, not more minimum wage jobs that make the choice between sitting on your arse and working it off a no brainer.
I work 40 hours a week and travel 15 to work a job lower than the UK average.
It's hard out there at the bottom.

Those are countries who have been traditionally seen as lazy and who have had growth rates far lower than ours.
We have both an employment problem (among British nationals) and a greed problem (among foreign billionaires)
Both can be true.

Tbf the people complaining, aside from the unions, are mostly the ones who benefitted from privatisation.
This will benefit the staff in the long term and the patients in the short term.

My mum certainly feels that way about myself and my brother, I hope I get to have the same satisfaction once my kids are grown up.

Trust me dude, if you spend time in public like I do, men Are the majority of the issue but not the whole problem.
Raise your kids right regardless of their gender. Don't think your daughters are able to raise themselves, they will surprise you just how much hell they can raise.

Just be careful with getting into bed with the extremists.
All for making the world fairer and more equal, but there is a section of every movement who do it out of hate, they are as bad as the systems they seek to destroy.

It's for Ukrainians to decide what's best for their country, no one else.
I've said that from the first days of the war.
They'll have my support no matter what they decide to do. Zelensky isn't a monolith, his entire presidential team would have been involved in this decision.

A lot more than that should be done.
We are all being told to tighten our belts, it's time they did the same.
Especially since we are the ones paying the bills.

Because there are so many middle earners entering politics.
The majority of those abusing the system have second jobs, have come from priveledged backgrounds and/or have had extremely successful careers before entering politics.
