The last 2 weeks worth of Scottish Media unionist propoganda has been on a scale I've never seen before! However isn't it great that everyone is talking about Scotland's future? - also on a scale never seen before!!

If only we could get control over our own broadcasting we could maybe get balanced arguement and not the one sided propaganda that we get shoved down our throats daily. For there to be an SNP government dispite the one-sided media is nothing short of incredible.

[tartantess]

i'm optomistic rob, we win the argument more everyday, one person at a time. and i belive the mainstream media is stale and boring to the under 30's. and it's influence is slowly waining. independence is now there to be taken and is it not great to watch the unionists parties working towards giving scotland even more power as their defence stratedgy? we have them worried, very worried, but because their all a bunch of self serving kunts, watch them imploded during a UK general election.

[RobQos]

I agree. It's just a matter of 'when' rather than 'if'.

[globaltraveller]

Labour know the game is up.

What a pity that "his" and Broon's Calman proposals (Calman was just the front man for this whole charade, after all) were so comprehensively rubbished by a number of "independent" economists the following day for being economically illiterate.

So by my reckoning the Unionist parties get a D minus in Economics, an F in Maths but a Grade A in sheer brass-neckery.

[RobQos]

The unionist London parties at Holyrood are trying to kid us on that they are leading the way with the direction that Scotland is taking... but they're not. Everything they are doing is being dictated by the popularity of the SNP.

Issues are being seriously talked about now that unionists laughed at us about just a couple of years ago. A prime example is the the 'Scottish Six' and the fact that 8.6% of the licence fee is raised in Scotland but only 2.6% of it is spent here.

Jim Murphy is going to lose his seat at the next election. (Unless they rig it)

[MrFarmer86]

[bunceyboy101]

I hope Labour lose I cannot stand tossers like him

4. The Labour Parties council tax penalise working people, the aged and families. Even the idle rich pay less. If council tax is the question, income tax is the answer, much fairer all round.

5. Socialism doesnt work.

6. The Labour Parties crime proposals are a joke. They talk tough (its popular) but in reality have a hand-wringing attitude.

7. The Labour Party has a disgraceful policy that Iraqi civilians and other coalition troops to needless additional risk just by being there!

[TheSpeedyreidy27]

REASONS *NOT* TO VOTE LABOUR

1. On economics, despite a veneer of business respectability (tax bribes) the Labour Party is even more of a tax-and-spend party than SNP, as clearly shown by its colossal £4.54 billion/year manifesto pledges.

2. The very fact Labour wont entertain a referendum on the future of Scotland, either more power for Hollyrood or Independence shows just how divorced the Labour Party is from the people it purports to represent.

Murphy is a devious point scoring scumbag.

One of our Parcel of Rogues.

Jim Murphy sounds like a Northern Irish unionist of about 70 years ago - hilarious.

It's funny hearing Labour clones say how much they support Holyrood gaining more powers. Before and even just after they lost the last election, they didnt want us gaining any more. In fact they spoke about the possibility of some powers going back to London. Patheitc, career driven liars.
