Am I wrong to zero in on KF mentioning that 50,000 people have reportedly left the party? I don't know, just strikes me as interesting optics to mention what seems to be a high number? You would have thought, if she was straightforwardly appealing to people to re join she'd say "some".

Maybe I'm just getting carried away....

tobee · 12/04/2023 15:34

As in people usually like to be seen to be joining a thriving group, not jumping aboard when everyone else is manning the lifeboats?

KnittingNeedles · 12/04/2023 15:38

Another SNP split coming? NEW-SNP and old SNP and Alba?

Isn't it interesting that the usually very vocal cybernats are so quiet on this thread.

Sugarfree23 · 12/04/2023 16:53

Possibly or some will jump ship to Alba.
Is the 50 thousand not 120k down to 70k over the last couple of years.

SNP leaders tried to keep quiet 🤫 on that until KF and AR forced the leaders to revel the voting numbers. Not Yousaf wasn't fussed on what the numbers were.

Sugarfree23 · 12/04/2023 16:53

I wonder how many more will have quit?

NicolaSturGONE · 12/04/2023 17:24

a battle bus that looks strangely like a motorhome, that someone has forgotten to park outside SNP HQ let alone add SNP campaigns stickers all over it

hmmmmmm

Who is on the SNP NEC? I can’t find that information anywhere.

I only know that MP Ann McLaughlin partner, Graham Campbell, is because she said so in an interview on times radio.
they must be idiots because each one of them is personally legally liable for the party’s finances.

I believe Kirsten Oswald MP is on it. It’s an unelected role bestowed on the chosen few by Sturgeon

Workerbeep · 12/04/2023 19:59

@Whatthediddlyfeck It just gets worse! I really hope the electorate come to their senses.

Sugarfree23 · 12/04/2023 20:03

Are political parties registered at Companies House?
I've had a look buy can't find SNP.

Haha

By complete co-incidence I heard that song for the first time yesterday (on a Spotify country playlist). It's brilliant.

My thoughts exactly, if that was an official snp vehicle wee nicoliar would have had it looking like a mobile shortbread tin.

NicolaSturGONE · 13/04/2023 16:32

Humza didn't know. Aye and the band played believe it if you like

😂😂 very true! It would have been very obvious it was an SNP bus - complete with tartan and Gaelic language. What’s the Gaelic for ‘Nic and Pete’s Grand Wee Tour of Scotland paid for out of party funds’?

BigBoysDontCry · 13/04/2023 18:30

@Mochudubh It's fab isn't it?

My DSs are adults now but they loved having that playing (and singing along) when we were out and about. Every time road kill was spotted they'd remember and ask for it to be played. I'm not sure why it always reminds me of the SNP.🤔

Scottishskifun · 13/04/2023 18:37

Fins it remarkable his response is I found out when I became leader and I aiming for transparency.........errrr wasn't he in the cabinet before in quite a high position 🧐

Sturgeon's husband arrested.
SirChenjins · 13/04/2023 18:52

Just watching the Scottish news now - the SNP can be summarised as follows.

  1. Their leader and our FM doesn’t know anything about anything, no siree.
  2. They’re about to spaff £££££ on mounting an unsuccessful legal challenge on an issue the majority of us don’t support
  3. They want free access to the Scottish football matches on the telly.

And that’s it - that’s the extent of their offerings to the country. We are fucked.

Oh come on now, you forgot the baby box!

Northernsouloldies · 13/04/2023 19:20

And the Snp/Greens buy a bike scheme. It cost £145,000 to set up, only four bikes taken up on the scheme. Another disaster unfortunately all their disasters add up to a lot of money wasted.
