There are some very funny replies to the tweet made by Lesley Riddoch, see above, mainly concentrating on the now well known inability of the SNP to count numbers. The dismal sight of a few hundred sodden and bad tempered weegies has done nothing to dampen the joy and happiness felt by the majority across the United Kingdom. I have a feeling that next week will give us rather more joy in the Sturgeon v Regina case, look forward to that. now now om dont get upset. The media were reporting the independence marchers numbering somewhere between 20 and 30 thousand.Not the snp.
I know its hard to bear , but sometimes you need to face up to reality om. You told us with wee nicky resigning that it jocks party over , back in your boxes. It hasnt happened. Its as if you havent learned your lessons from 2014 when salmond resigned and you told us something similar.
Sturgeon resining isnt a blow to scottish independence om. She is a block that has been removed .

It only highlights the fact that SNP supporters don't care about the corruption so long as all the bigotry remains from the fringe. Scotland is still heavily divided and nothing has really changed, at least not for the better, since Tony Blair handed the SNP the keys.

ah the english intelligentsa back waflling on.
You keep conflating and showing your inability to understand the difference between snp supporters and scottish indy supporters .
While you continually fail to understand the difference , you wont understand whats happening in scottish politics. Hence the shock and disbelief that nicola sturgeon has gone , but the support for indy remains.

There really isn't much of a difference. The fact remains, nothing has really changed over the decades. You vent the same hostile hatred and bigotry, but it all seems to be about your issues. My guess is that you live a very isolated existence.

My guess is that you live a very isolated existence. Of course there is a lot of difference. There are many folk who have never once voted snp , but vote other parties including the 30 % of scottish labour supporters who support independence.
You are living in denial b4 , which while isnt surprising , is why you understand scottish politics so very little.
You need to do a wee bit of reserach. First of all start at the fact scotland has a differing votting system to englands fptp( outside of the vote for your westmsinter parliament of course) and take it from there.
The yes movement is a broad church that encapsulates many differing political views across scotland.

Not by very much, even if your 30,000 turnout pipe dream was true, that still leaves over 5,000,000 that are not interested, like I say, arithmetic isn't a strong point amongst the separatists.
Did your damp and miserable tramp through the back streets of Glasgow achieve anything?
There is no more support for independence than there was at your referendum.

There is no more support for independence than there was at your referendum. om , you say maths isnt a strong point then go on to talk about 5 million people not being interested.
Theres 5 half million people in scotland , of which the electorate is just over 4 for your parliament , and 4 quarter for ours. simply because only thirty thousand marched doesnt mean others arent interested.
I think it proves indy isnt going anywhere. sorry if thats uncomfortable for you , with you telling me thats indy over with sturgeons resignation but there you go om.
then you have nothing to be scared about do you om?

This is a proper march,  Rather more impressive than a shower of sectarian bigots shambling down a back street don't you think? I certainly don't, I am not staring down the barrel of penury and desolation offered by your Parliament, (those that are not destined for Barlinnie that is), I have absolutely no objection to independence for Scotland, it is a source of mild irritation that the Scots rejected it, and would be happy to see them out of our Union, but I am pragmatic that it will never happen. |

I certainly don't, I am not staring down the barrel of penury and desolation offered by your Parliament, (those that are not destined for Barlinnie that is), I have absolutely no objection to independence for Scotland, it is a source of mild irritation that the Scots rejected it, and would be happy to see them out of our Union, but I am pragmatic that it will never happen. Well england has ten times the popualtion of scotland , so the march should be ten times the 20 to 30 thousands marchers in glesga. How impressive it is viewed is in the eye of the beholder.
what sectarian bigots om.? the scottish independence movement is non sectarian. A broad church of all political views and religions.
If in any way scottish independence was sectarian , for example in the way northern irelands was , it would never have gotten off the ground. Scotland is not a catholic country may i remind you . Sorry to dissapoint you om. I know how much the brit nats would love scotland to become sectarian in the way northern ireland is to divide and conquer.
isnt that you trying to project onto us whats happening in your own nation? A £250 million coronation , while an estimated 14 million sit in abject poverty , and an economy projected to be the worst in the developed world , with fuel poverty and food banks thorugh the roof.
At least you had fun with the bunting as a reminder of the good old days om.
glad to have you on board old boy. Why then do you spend inordinate amounts of time on our scottish threads railing against independence?
scots didnt reject it. Scots birth certificate holders voted for it by a majority , non scots born who live in scotland voted largely against it.
100 years ago they said that about ireland.....
