DD: The current SNP plan is to call another referendum as soon as they get an excuse to, with an EU exit being seen as their best chance of a good excuse.
I really want to know how candidates get this preternatural ability to knock at my door precisely when I'm in my pyjamas at midday or otherwise in an inadequate state to open it. It's really annoying. :P
impose stricter sentences on illegally selling private informationWe're boned.
Not that they'll likely be in a position to implement it...Oh. :)
Seems we'll be having another tory gubment,And this one, alas, will not be restrained by the LibDems.
I expect many of my scottish friends to be delightfully furious.Along with about half the electorate south of the border.
Voted lib dem in the end, might as well have pissed in the ballot box though.Isn't first-past-the-post wonderful?
The fact that SNP are doing as well as they are is garnering a fair amount of anti-Scottish sentiment, at least around here. Then again there is anti-most-things sentiment around here, apart from gays we don't mind those, even have a gay-friendly rubgy team...whatever that means.Maybe it just means they really enjoy team showers.
"A conservative government would be giving the security agencies and law enforcement agencies the powers that they need to ensure they're keeping up to date as people communicate with communications data. We were prevented from bringing in that legislation into the last government because of the coalitions with the Lib Dems and we are determined to bring that through because we believe that is necessary to maintain the capabilities of our law enforcement agencies so they can continue to do the excellent job day in day out of keeping us safe and secure"
@G, go for a rant if you feel like it,It happened; it's on Facebook. I can repost it here if people don't mind a huge slab of text.
if you like I can shut up and you can have an echo chamber :PIt would be hypocritical of me to ask you to shut up, given that one of the major concerns here is freedom of speech. I want a debating chamber, not an echo chamber. In any case, I would very much like to understand more about the position of Conservative voters. I have some questions, but they're probably best going in the Human Rights thread that's now in progress.
you just as rightly have the freedom to ask me to not postI have, but why should I use it? That wouldn't help either of us in understanding each other. I expect I disagree with you on quite a lot of things, but we should still be able to discuss them civilly.
