Scotland has always had a better funded Health Service than England. all it a union dividend if you like (I don't).<br /><br />Police numbers are falling (and what about 400 fewer teachers? does that balance?)<br /><br />Tory council tax freeze (adopted by nats when LIT collapsed)= closed libraries and cut social services. I do hope nat council cadidates are going to claim these "benefits" in the May election.<br /><br />bridges are small beer, county council stuff.<br /><br />only 10% paid prescription charges. but it has lost £60m to the NHS (see above).<br /><br />a balanced budget? a balanced budget? what does that mean?<br /><br />good try 0.5 out of 10, I would sayBravehearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07223196805548966030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049548032314779842.post-55603906644811758322012-01-23T21:51:05.050+00:002012-01-23T21:51:05.050+00:00A real NHS, a drop in crime figures because of 100...A real NHS, a drop in crime figures because of 1000 more police, a cessation of continuing an ever upward tax on the people called rates, no charges on bridges, free prescriptions, a balanced budget...need I go on?Gedguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18217515188959770657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049548032314779842.post-20209986483187438732012-01-20T22:31:32.655+00:002012-01-20T22:31:32.655+00:00"Scot nats are proud of what the SNP has done..."Scot nats are proud of what the SNP has done and continue to do."<br /><br />such as?Bravehearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07223196805548966030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049548032314779842.post-75451093142530938762012-01-19T22:46:47.453+00:002012-01-19T22:46:47.453+00:00It must (I hope) be somewhat disappointing for you...It must (I hope) be somewhat disappointing for you that:<br /><br />1) Labour just said "tough" to the unions demands, resulting in a loss of funding perhaps for Labour.<br /><br />2) Labour now agree fully with the Tories cuts (you can argue nuance if that helps)<br /><br />3) 32 Scottish Labour MPs voted YES to the principle of NHS privatisation, including Tom Harris (again you can argue nuance if that helps)<br /><br /><br />You are fighting a lost battle - <br /><br />I wish you no personal ill but Scotland will be the better when the number of SNP councillors is manifold in May and Labour are but a distant memory. It will take about: 1 week for a change to begin to be felt and about 1 month for Labour to begin to drift into the ether of the ineffectual and about 1 year for Labour to become a distant memory.<br /><br />At least that's the way it looks - if it doesn't happen - we'll shrug our shoulders and continue on. We won't stop any of us till we achieve independence. If anything, I've never seen anything like this before: there is now a national movement for independence. When I say movement, I mean a great deal of people all over Scotland working a wide range of activities because they believe in what they're doing.<br /><br />When was the last time Labour did anything that made you feel good about yourself, even proud for that matter?<br /><br />Scot nats are proud of what the SNP has done and continue to do.<br /><br />You're on the wrong side of history and in the wrong party (I hope). The era of the Brit nats is doomed - leave them and get a career in poilitics with the SNP - actually do something for the common good.<br /><br />In any case, good luck in May.Steviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18226832161404154663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049548032314779842.post-20321020282297471442012-01-18T10:33:39.552+00:002012-01-18T10:33:39.552+00:00after the mcalpine comment, it beggars belief that...after the mcalpine comment, it beggars belief that, harris goes on to post his downfall parody.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049548032314779842.post-59054439492133687912012-01-18T09:23:11.073+00:002012-01-18T09:23:11.073+00:00Anon

This post is about the McAlpine/Harris controversy and whether some politicians are anti-Scottish.<br /><br />Please comment on-subject.

The second the votes were counted, clarifying one of the most resounding victories and upsets in the history of UK politics, their mantra changed to "this doesn't mean the Scottish people want independence..." <br /><br />So, maybe someone can help me by telling me what part was true and what part was a fib? Was the party line before the election their true and honest opinion or was that espoused after the election their true and honest opinion? Serious issues, of course, very serious thing to be caught lying about and trying to scare people over -- reveals a lot about those involved.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049548032314779842.post-91271321377851215232012-01-16T19:02:00.640+00:002012-01-16T19:02:00.640+00:00Parties whose Scottish members shout 'who care...Parties whose Scottish members shout 'who cares' when the SNP ask a question, who bay like animals when their fellow Scots (SNP)speak, who organise a voting system for Scots but not for Westminster, and who try to deny further devolution or support a Westminster agenda are anti democratic and if they think that is not anti Scottish they are bemused - the Scots will not be!!!!!!Fourfolksachehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12651190231842907126noreply@blogger.com
