Yep, abolish it all whilst there's still a Tory majority. Typical!!! Ignore the views of the Scottish people. And, you wonder how the SNP is so popular (even the recent mishaps, support remains in the mid 30%) There is no appetite in Scotland for ending Devolution. 30% is not the view of the Scottish people.

He was chosen as leader of the SNP so he could follow in the footsteps of Sturgeon, a bitter and twisted anti-English hater, he hates everything that is typically English and our values and traditions, a dangerous man has been removed as leader of a UK party, far worse than any far-right threat, I've got a sneaky suspicion we haven't heard the last of this guy, if you get what I mean. A few points about that post: So many posters have accused the SNP of being anti-English. Perhaps you can do better than them and provide some evidence. Same with Sturgeon and Yousaf. When have either uttered anti-English comments The SNP is a Scottish party!!!

There is in England because it is costing us a fortune. If 30% of the Scottish Electorate support the SNP is just goes to show how successful the lowering of educational standards in Scotland has been for the SNP.

Nope, hold a referendum telling everyone including the Scots just what a waste of cash devolution is and then give the entire country (the UK) a vote to scrap devolution. That way everyone who pays tax (which pays for devolution) is consulted. Most people who contribute towards the Scottish Junta's budget have never ever had a say on the matter. Tell people what it costs, invite the public to abolish, get rid. SIMPLE. Scotland gets nothing of benefit from devolution anyway, it's just a platform for Anglophobic whinging racists to push the agenda of separatism.

Whenever I've thought about Scottish politics — which, admittedly, hasn't been often — the SNP has seemed to be a one-trick pony. Nevertheless, prompted by today's coverage of Humza Yousaf's resignation, I've been wondering who'd benefit. The thought that Scottish Labour is likely to pick up seats (as might Alba, the Conservatives and Greens) would destroy the Thomas predictions that Labour is facing a wipe out north of the Border, does make me smile... Well the first issue is of course that now he's gone the TORY motion of confidence in HIM as First Minister is toast
The only issue now is whether his departure will pull the teeth from te Labour one which was a constittional vote of no confidence in the government that would by definiton if lost precipitate a general election
The reality then is whether the SNP's divergence into green wokery and gender crap will find a home elsewhere (labour, certainly, Alba maybe not so much) and the obvious recipient of independence minded voters disgusted at Hamza's party, if there are any, is Alba
Of course, if they find a rousing replacement (where's the lol icon) then the SNP may find an election provides an INCREASED number of seats and a majority in the parliament, wouldn't that be interesting.

No, but I was making the point that, despite all that has gone on, the SNP remains the strongest supported party. Anyway support for the SNP does not equate to support for Independence, which is around 50%. Or, were you conflating the figure with support for ending devolution. If that is the case, you are way off the mark. The most recent Scottish Social Attitudes Study (2021) found only 8% wanted back to direct rule en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_on_Scottish_independence#Scottish_Social_Attitudes_Survey

Depends when he made that prediction. Certainly, looking at the polls now, Labour are on course to win quite a few central belt constituencies. It wasn't that long ago the Red Tories were in 3rd place and certainly looking down and out - although it would take a lot to shift Ian Murray. I'm sure that if he was active on the forum, T would have amended his "prediction".

Each party has different views, some I agree with some I do not, the main reason for SNP and Alba to exist is for Independence which I do not agree with and if it is hovering around 50% that is still not the view of the Scottish people. What is clear is relying on the Greens to dictate the direction of travel is a pact withe the Devil and that does not have the support of the Scottish people if it was then the Greens would be in power and we can all thank our lucky stars they are not, in that respect, eventually, Yousaf was right but a bit too late.

Yeah imagine the other anti-English hater (Alba Salmond) in coalition with another anti-English hater Yousaf, bloody hell the people of Scotland deserve more than that, by the time these two had finished Scotland would be on its knees and in financial ruin FFS. Where's the evidence of anti-Englishness? As one poster in the old forum used to point out: Scottish Nationalism is not about hatred of anyone.
