@CraigHouston_ @PatrickSMurphy4 @swedetaxedermy I know that, but that doesn’t stop them talking and convincing people of it.

@grayk1999 @PatrickSMurphy4 @swedetaxedermy You do know they cant do that

Let me guess, he doesn’t live here Scottish people on the streets have bigger concerns right now. I was speaking to a woman in Knightswood on Thursday. An Indy supporter who said “I don’t want it just now” because we have bigger issues to deal with. This is not a unique opinion. I hear it often.

@PatrickSMurphy4 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ The snp will likely call for one after May if they get a majority on their own.

@grayk1999 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ What's stopping us having another one. The north of Ireland can have a referendum if it appears the majority would vote for reunification and technically can do it after every 7 years.

@swedetaxedermy @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ The union needs changing in its current form but I wouldn’t leave it that’s correct, certainly not for joining the EU and not being properly independent

@grayk1999 @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ As opposed to the current failure in the union you keep referring to? Something you claim is a fact but don't want to change.

@swedetaxedermy @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ I dont think anyone is kidding themselves. The snp likely landslide and fall just short of a majority but help from greens means it’s so. They’ll bluster and call for one but they don’t really want independence.

@grayk1999 @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ We'll remind you of that come May.

@PatrickSMurphy4 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ Of course that means we would be an automatic success.

@grayk1999 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ Nah, going by all the other independent states who left unions with other nations.

@PatrickSMurphy4 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ What do you mean and? You can just ignore a vote because you don’t like the outcome?

@grayk1999 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ And?🤨

@swedetaxedermy @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ Getting into the EU is easier said than done , does Scotland meet the criteria?

@grayk1999 @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ Scotland in the EU would be orders of magnitude more independent than Scotland in the UK is. Unless you are silly enough to think Denmark, Finland , Sweden, France, Spain etc are not independent. Uk isolated and scrambling around for friends since USA is now rogue.

@MediaSOI What’s gonna happen is the two extremes face off at the next election. The middle ground get a few votes but are forgotten by theyounger generation. We seesaw between extremes until the country has enough for one party to take over, likely anyone left looking at demographics

Restore supporters If in 2/3 years it becomes obvious that it’s Reform v Greens at the next election, would you lend your vote to Farage?

@swedetaxedermy @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ Absolutely, I don’t think becoming independent only to join the EU is real independence but seems that’s the plan from most who argue for it.

@grayk1999 @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ Westminster is charge - did you miss the result the referendum? Better together - own it.

@swedetaxedermy @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ With the people we now have in charge who would negotiate a certain great deal.

@grayk1999 @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ You get a vote every 4-5 years for a government. Huge numbers who voted are dead and huge numbers alive now didn't get a vote. What’s your point?

@swedetaxedermy @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ Ah the we have the numbers now, in all honesty I welcome it, if we thought leaving the EU was hard wait until we break from the rest of the UK.

@swedetaxedermy @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ Did Scotland not have a vote in 2014?

@grayk1999 @PatrickSMurphy4 @CraigHouston_ Been part of the union for those 6 decades. Clearly not working. Maybe time for Scottish people to take control. Westminster pays lip service to Scotland. Successive PM's make the odd visit during elections- that’s about it.

@PatrickSMurphy4 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ That’s a guess of course.

@grayk1999 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ They would be with independence.

@PatrickSMurphy4 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ Did we not have capable politicians who argued for independence 6 decades ago? Seems all our problems would have been solved.

@grayk1999 @swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ You've been proven wrong for the past 6 decades that I've been alive. Westminster has done very little for Scotland apart from taking us into illegal wars, wasted the opportunity for a sovereign wealth fund, loaded the country with debt and taken us out of the EU.

@TheRealJamieKay Have an issue with it being all white people I see. That’s what you really mean here.

Unbelievable diversity 😂😂😂

@swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ I’d be happy to be proven wrong, I just can’t see where the talent lies in going independent, nor the arguements it would get better. Self pride? Jesus Christ the current ruling party are an utter joke and will likely end up with most seats, clearly we aren’t capable.

@grayk1999 @CraigHouston_ So you're in the “that’s our lot let's just settle for that and do nothing “ camp. You're so useless you don't expect better - just live off your neighbors. The most incapable bunch in Europe. Have you no self pride?

@swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ Jesus Christ if we were alone it would be even worse. Look at the standard in there already.

@grayk1999 @CraigHouston_ That’s policy and politics - a different issue from the constitution.Much easier for Scot’s to vote out bad Scottish politicians than the Westminster ones where it’s a case of like or lump it.

@CraigHouston_ The first two things literally have pressure due to the number of People using the service which immigration is a knock of affect of so he’s at it.

At least he’s stopped campaigning on a ticket of “I supported terrorist” but his move to “every asylum seeker is fleeing war” is equally as daft. Vote Craig Houston on Glasgow List (7 seats available) on 7th May. I won’t go to Holyrood to argue about things that place can’t fix #houstie4holyrood

@swedetaxedermy @CraigHouston_ The union definitely needs changing but on the other side it’s jsut as bad with swinney and the likes of them.

@CraigHouston_ If only the people who live in Scotland got a voice then I don't think that is the win for unionism you imagine. A debate without the input of Starmer Badenoch Farage would be a good thing. You might get some self respect back.

@mefattyuskinny @staylorish Also telling people it’s ok for you to live there but not I is a cheeky as fuck response. Good for the proles to suffer but I’m loaded so I’m gone.

@grayk1999 @staylorish Lying prick 🤣 Dundee is a shitehole. There can be no denying that. Last time I was there, junkies were crawling all over the place. Get real
