SNP conference-50% of time set aside to discuss child poverty used for a motion on identity politics

[GargoylesofBeelzebub]

They've seriously lost the plot.

It's not a mental illness apparently but they still need access to "gender affirming healthcare" with no medical diagnosis.

I genuinely thought this was a parody, but no. Its real. Listen to them applaud this nutter and check how uncomfortable Angela Constance looks at the end.

Anyone who votes for the SNP needs their head read.

Well, the right thinking among us have known that for a long time.

A decade ago it was really obvious what the SNP stood for, whether you agreed with it or not. A SNP vote was about independence, full stop. After that failed in 2014 they started flapping and turning on each other and since then it's been an ongoing pantomime of corruption, coalition with the loony Greens, meddling and spending money on non-devolved issues like foreign affairs and "embassies" and the rest of it.

What do they stand for now? Who knows. They have pushed indy into the long grass, they can no longer be anti-Tory as we don't have a conservative government, your standard voter in the street is not interested in the whole identity politics shite, only last week there was a report saying their financial management is woeful. They seem to have forgotten they are there to deal with the NHS, education, roads and the rest of the devolved matters.

And Swinney is the most ineffectual leader they could have elected. Many of us will never forgive him for the "blended learning, 33% of the time in school for a whole year, pivot, panic, we never said blended learning, that was only ever a contingency and you just misunderstood" lies, incompetence and gaslighting.

Roll on May 2026.

I thought that video was a parody u til it sunk in. Jesus wept. The lunatics have taken over the asylum right enough.

Not making fun of people with a mental health condition. It's the people who thought it was a good idea to allow that speech to take place that are the problem.

Exactly. Look at Angela Constance's body language after the speech. She knows how it looks. Yet will she speak up to put a stop to this nonsense?

No. She and the remaining SNP faithful will continue to admire the Emperor's new clothes when everyone else is calling out that he's naked and has his knob out in the ladies.

Suits me just fine as the longer they continue down this path that further their votes will drop.

It's delicious watching it implode.

The pronoun shit needs to go to.

My DS (autistic) is looking for a job. He's now approached a specialist agency and the list of things they want to discuss starts with what pronouns he uses. It's hard enough trying to navigate the world and thus to his logical mind is just perplexing. Why this is a thing when he is clearly a man and pronouns are not used when addressing him directly so why should he give a shit? I'm hoping that they can help him though so told him to either suck it up or write N/A.

Anyway back to the bat shit SNP. Maybe they are doing it all deliberately as they know they are failing on every aspect of running the country and also on independence so maybe just want out? It's hard to believe that so many of them can be so incompetent and out of touch.

My issue is that Labour are not much better, a few years ago they were propping up SNP and voting for GRR, they dont have a firm policy on indy and since they have taken charge at Westminster they seem to have absolutely lost the plot too. The tories were far from perfect but if they can get their act together and stop infighting they are our only hope.

Agree totally about Labour.

If gender dysphoria isn't a medical condition then no medical treatment is required and all NHS gender related services should shut immediately, saving the NHS valuable resources.

The whole thing is just ludicrous.

They spent the first session of the conference in a closed door session to try to thrash out why their vote collapsed so spectacularly in the GE....

Then they followed it up with this spectacle. It's astounding.

I would love to know what Stephen Flynn really thinks of it all.

I think they're in such an echo chamber that they can't and won't consider any alternative position.

The lunatics haven't just taken over the asylum - they've tied the last remaining sensible ones to the bed posts and are dancing naked on the ping pong table whilst waving their ladycocks in the air to the tune of Donald Where's Yer Troosers.

Yes, it is indeed a mystery that they lost the number of seats they did. Even Sherlock would struggle with that one.
