Thought I’d get a new thread going as we are perilously close to filling the last and I for one am enjoying watching events unfold in your good company!

buckle up…it’s gonna be a bumpy ride….😁

Well folks, I guess that's that. Abhannmor has made a robust and salient argument. I guess we ask mumsnet to remove the thread and move along now.

But I'd like to know where s/he thinks the £600K went.

And what about Nicola's WhatsApps ?

She had 60,000 WhatsApps and paid a tenner each to have them deleted?

Definitely no need to be rude or state kiss my ass!

Also don't need to speak gaelic to be able to use Google translate.....😉

It's great you had a nice time in Scotland not sure why you feel the need to come on Scotnet and state something isn't the case. Politely just as I would not have the knowledge or lived experience to comment on Irish politics because I have visited multiple times, in the same regard having a long visit or a few visits doesn't mean your subject to what many of us see as major failings.

Scots are going to discuss our administration and express our feelings on our political landscape. It's pretty rude to wade in and fling insults about.

Even without the help of google translate I managed to understand the first bit. Nice wee bit of sectarianism thrown in there too.

If being able to speak or understand Irish/Gaelic is what it takes to be a good nationalist in Scotland then Useless, Swinney and Harvie are scunnered.

Wind farms = Subsidy Farms . They are not green and will never produce cheap electricity. Scotgov gets business rates for them so push the narrative .
300 million in constraint payments last year and this will increase with ever more turbines being erected . They destroy the landscape and peoples lives . They are great for the landowners ( I know one who happily tells everyone they are paying his 3 childrens school fees) and the people who build them , largely foreign companies . Big scam really which we pay for .

Yip, try fucking living here with these crackpot schemes and dictatorship.

Nah, we've now been informed that it's us that are crackpots and conspiracy theorists. 😂😂

Exactly! Loony greens backing up the rotten to the core SNP aren't we lucky 🙃

😂

I've no idea what language Scottish nationalists prefer. I only defaulted to Gaeilge because someone accused me of inventing ' a Gaelic user name ' to comment on Scottish politics. If you prefer I could post in Lallans? Btw is using Gaelic regarded as sectarian now? I can't keep up with the ramifications of intersectionalism. And as the post as Gaeilge was deleted I'm not sure what the accusation was about.

Another delay on the ferries :

Glen Sannox now due for delivery late May and then 10 weeks of sea trials before actually going into service, which puts it starting carrying passengers early - mid August, missing most of the summer rush. Also the guy in charge of the yard "warned of possible further delays and cost overruns."

This is the ferry which should have been in the water in 2018, which should have cost £97 million and which is now costing more than £340 million.

I’d like to say I’m surprised @RandomGeocache but it’s the same old, same old from them.

The islanders will have personal jet packs by the time these ferries are finished. 😁

There have been so many stories about businesses on Arran struggling to get merchandise in, people can't get to the mainland for hospital appointments. I am close enough to consider a day trip to Arran over the summer - but I wouldn't, because I know the ferry service is so unreliable.

The whole thing has been a fuck up from start to finish. The four ferries made in Turkey are almost ready, cheaper and quicker. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-67956872

Until your longish trip stretches to paying council tax you really, really don't know.

And we spell it rammy.

I think Scottish women, in particular, will have had a very specific experience of the SNP over the past few years.

Abhannmor still hasn't said where the £600k is or whether or not Nicola should have deleted the COVID related WhatsApps when she had kept a couple of years worth relating to Alex Salmond 🤔

Maybe she could also tell us where the 60 million bung sent from Uk Gov to Scotgov last year for the farmers went as it certainly didn’t go to the farmers .

Agree (and for our visitors’s benefit that’s the adult human female variety of women)

Wasn't aware Blackford had left his wife for a misstress and quite grossed out at the thought of him spending £300 on lingerie

The Blackford thing was all over twitter a few weeks ago. Apparently he took the mistress to Westminster parties over the festive season but no one was allowed to say anything. Mrs B chucked him out.
