I should be celebrating an SNP win. I should be celebrating and Indy majority in parliament. But I'm not. Reasons are many. We had this in last parliament when we had the best chance at Indy we ever had. Brexit and a weak Theresa May plus "cast iron" mandates but here we are in
the UK still. So forgive me if I'm not jumping up and down in excitement at the prospect of another 5yrs of nothingness. What's happened is the SNP is now a shadow of what it once was with independence seemingly playing 2nd fiddle to gender politics. There can be no criticism of
the party or leader. This will lead to the Nicolytes tarring you as a unionist, a bigot, homophobe, Transphobe or an MI5 plant. This even if you have supported SNP and independence longer than the johnny come latelys have been alive. The fit up of Alex was a disgrace, even worse
When you find out who was behind it. The continued smearing by NS even when AS was found not guilty and the hatchet jobs in the press are utterly reprehensible. Not guilty seems to count for nothing in Scotland anymore. Then we move on to the both votes SNP con. AS gave us a
stake to drive through the heart of the unionist establishment and we were too stupid to use it. Conned by the both votes SNP mantra which even with cold hard figures people bought in to. The biggest lie came straight from NS, that your 2nd vote was for who you wanted to be FM,
Well under that measure I hope we are all looking forward to DRoss as FM. I have only ever been ashamed to be Scottish twice in my life, on 19/09/2014 and yesterday at the sight of supposed Indy supporters gloating at an Indy party getting no seats at an election, preferring
instead to get Holyrood rammed with yoons again. I'm totally disgusted by it. The unionists got their head round tactical voting but we are too stupid. So here we are again, 5 years of what? More can kicking and false promises. More "Nicola has a secret plan" more blowhard
Blackford spouting meaningless pish in WM, more comfy feet Pete blocking Indy supporters, more Mhairi Hunter and her pronouncements, more Kirsty Blackman and her batshit ideas, more Stewart McDonald and his "Russians are coming" Not for me I'm done with it. We had the chance to
boot the unionists firmly in the nuts and like 2014 we bottled it. Instead of unionist lies we fell for "Both votes SNP". Supporting Indy used to be a joy now it's a chore and I can't keep living in false hope that "Indy is just round the corner". So that's it, enjoy 5 years of
carrot dangling, 5 years of gender woowoo, 5 years of going nowhere, 5 years of WM rule, 5 years of Holyrood being dismantled, 5 years of austerity, 5 years of "hold hold hold", 5 years of S30 refusal, 5 years of insipid leadership and 5 more years of house Jocks sitting in our
parliament trying to frustrate us, putting our country down at every turn, belittling Scotlands achievements, spreading lies and misinformation. But hey SNP 1 and 2 right?
