SNP embarrssing Scotland at westminster.

I thought the manboy had taken her jacket off there for a mo..

Typically cringeworthy DM attempt to discredit Scottish MPs for such cardinal sins as: ´taking selfies´; ´brashly evicting the Lib Dems from offices they’d occupied for more than a century´...as they were perfectly entitled to do I assume; clapping instead of shouting ´hear hear´ or ´rubbish´; Mhairi Black drinking snakebite; and the best one...´Black was eating a quintessentially Scottish lunch: chips, bread, and a packet of cola cubes´- what like English people don´t eat chips with bread then?


Pathetic nonsense...or since its from the Westminster establishment mouthpiece perhaps that should be nonce-sense...

I think it was the cola cubes that clinched it

Wait til she nuts the Speaker.

Bercow might be best advised to buy a Jag's scarf.

undoubtedly salmond wants to ruffle a few feathers and show some intent


but to fookingwell start off with an attempt at dislodging dennis skinner is a bastarding pisstaking **** of a cuntbuggering disgrace

cuntbuggering - pass

ar sehole - fail

BF have their standards.

If it was in the Daily Mail,surely it must be true???????????

well quite a few papers have covered it besides the mail

Unlikely., since she's not even an MP.

Scotland's TRUE embarrassment (apart from mendacious sycophants like akabula) is the filthy, lying LibDem Alistair Carmichael, who, if he'd admitted his "error of judgement" over the attempted smear on Nicola Sturgeon a month earlier, he'd have saved the taxpayers the £1.4 million spent on the enquiry. Carmichael and LibDems, completely without scruples, a party with zero credibility.

Desperate times for a Scottish unionist when he resorts to citing the Daily Mail.

^^^ thats old style parliamentarian behaviour so doesn't warrant mentioning, see also widespread corruption

I'm not sticking up for aka by any means but he was referring to Mhairi Black, not Sturgeon.

Apart from their disgraceful behaviour towards Skinner, I hope they continue upsetting everyone else in Westminster.

Well they might as well have some fun cos with a Tory majority, unless numerous Tories rebel, they can change FK ALL at Westminster !!!! 

I wonder when reality will bite? Probably not until the Buckfast wears off

pawras     25 May 15 17:30

I've heard that line, or similar, repeated countless times. Many of the same people who are saying that the SNP are impotent were hoping that UKIP might win more than one seat. Funny how they ridicule the SNP but not UKIP.

I thought nearly everyone tried to ridicule UKIP.

The only reason UKIP would have held any sway over the Tories is due to fear of losing voters to them and the fact they have so many euro mps, neither of which is a factor for the wee yappy scotty dog/snp

So if you feel snp have any power over a tory majority in the UK parliament then pray tell how?

They don't. They're 56x more powerful than UKIP though.

Mikael - you don't think UKIP have held some sway? Don't tell me you think Cameron would be holding an EU referendum unless he felt forced to.

Forced to, me bollox. If he's allowing a referendum it's because he's certain he'll win it, same as the Scottish independence vote or the one on electoral reform.

Alias what about Salmond and Sturgeon lying to the Scottish Parliament over having sought and paid for legal advice in respect of continued EU membership?
Did you call them filthy liars as well? Or was that okay?

What about you lying about practically everything, is that ok?

Now the liar Carmichael is saying he didn't read the leaked memo. Fact is, his majority shrank from 10,000 to just over 800. If his constituents had been made aware of the truth prior to polling day, his feet wouldn't have touched the ground. He has to resign.

I'm not sticking up for aka by any means but he was referring to Mhairi Black, not Sturgeon.

I know. He'll attack anyone he can, as long as it's not a Liedem or Tory liar. he loves LieDem and Tory liars, and his sycophancy towards them is astonishing.

^^^ not very logical, is she in Westminster or not.

You're one to discuss logic, lfc1971.

So if you feel snp have any power over a tory majority in the UK parliament then pray tell how?

pawras, you're so full of IT and possess a goodly supply of insults, yet you're so bereft of imagination. Try hard to think.

It’s me that asked the question so why would I then seek to answer it?

Come on I’m genuinely interested to know how 56 snp members can wield any influence over the UK parliament when the Tories have a majority with 331 seats unless you have numerous Tories rebel and vote against the government?

If I’m wrong I’ll hold my hand up cos I don’t say I’m aufait with parliamentary procedure but logically I can’t see how snp can do anything but make a bit of noise, achieve f all and stamp their feet shouting referendum every time they don’t get their way at Westminster.

I don`t think Alias`s brain works logically...he`s working class.

Yep I'm still unable to see how a party with 8.6% of the seats (56 out 650) can have any real influence against a majority tory government, if it had been a labour minority government then yes they'd have had some sway, but that ain't how it panned out.
I did a quick scan of parliamentary procedure and I didn't see any clause which said the votes of snp members of parliament count more than those of other parties.

So I await enlightenment with bated breath……..

pawras,

...Ask yourself the following -  what purposes does the Westminster parliament serve the SNP? Any suggestions, even? Why do they just not ignore it like Sinn Fein do? Figure that one out, and you will realise like I did that for the SNP, a majority Tory government was the possible election result.

AKA you seem more English than Scottish are you a descendant of Prima Nocte

Law of Prima Nocte ("First Night"), giving English nobles first séxual rights on the night..


......

kweeveen....this is what happens to "Zombies"

Their only goal is independence and a Tory majority is their best chance of getting it so they can shout being ruled by Westminster etc etc etc


But that wasn't the question was it, my question was how can the snp members of parliament influence a tory majority government other than shouting referendum every time they disagree with something?

It's amazing how often people confuse being British with being English.
Strange, I can never get my head around how they manage to confuse themselves.

......not according to my passport....

What's in store with the Tories? More assaults on the right to strike. More "job creation", i.e., sh1tty part time, zero hours jobs or steady ones with subsistence wages which cuts to welfare will further undermine. More immigration: Don't forget, the bigger the labour pool, the more the Tories love it, so never be fooled by promises of lower immigration - classic divide and rule. What happened to the last promise? Looking forward to the abolition of the Human Rights Act and arrest on simple suspicion? Be careful, be very very careful.

They have lots of nasty stuff in store. As previously noted, the perfect storm.

The ones that do are usually followers of the now defunct Glasgow Rangers or Scotland's youngest club, SEVCO. Both tend to wear the three lions shirt.

akabula - alias can insult all he wants I couldn't give fk because he can't answer "I'm still unable to see how a party with 8.6% of the seats (56 out 650) can have any real influence against a majority tory government? " other than the correct answer of SWEET FK ALL !

SNP are only going to Westminster to get their tanties in a twist that they've NO actual say against a majority UK government and then start stamping their feet for another referendum.

Cameron far too clever for the SNP. He'll play them like a violin.
Recent polls have shown that the independence camp are still in the minority btw.
Alias calls it a movement.

Recent polls have shown that the independence camp are in the minority mainly because of old folks who might be deed the next time a referendum comes round!

Yes but the younger ones brains will have developed by then and will see the folly of voting yes.

Salmond talking his usual pish on Radio 4 now.  What a plum!

Alias calls it a movement

I have a movement every morning after my first cuppa.

aye and the same stuff comes oota yer moo.

George Kerevan MP
STATE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT... AND MUSICAL CHAIRS

Wednesday is the state opening of Parliament by the Queen. We will get to know just what Bills the Tories are going to introduce. The next few days will see general debates on the main topics (including implementing the Smith Commission proposals, or a version of them). However, there is also likely to be a bit of Westminster games courtesy of the Labour Party. It works like this.

The debating chamber at Westminster was built deliberately too small to seat every MP. The idea was to make it more intimate so that rational men and women of good faith could actually exchange ideas in debate and perhaps reach a sensible conclusion. I respect that ideal even if it sometimes falls short in the practice. The problem is that if the chamber is full roughly a third of MPs cannot take part and so are excluded from representing their constituents in discussion. This is not necessarily a problem if all the parties are sensible and let representatives of each group have space on the benches. Unfortunately, Labour is in a bad mood after its defeat and is deliberately trying to exclude the SNP from getting enough seats in the chamber.

We have tried to put a compromise to the Labour interim leadership but they are either refusing to play ball or actually not returning calls. It could be that they have lost control of their backbenchers. The SNP is only asking to have space for 26 of our 56 members - a handsome compromise - provided we get front bench space. We are more than willing to let Denis Skinner sit on our front bench! However, it seems Labour wants to crowd us to the back and, if they can, actually deny us as few seats as possible. So much for democracy.

So if you read in the media that there has been a dispute over Commons seating, do not think this is trivial or that the SNP members are being childish. Given the system at Westminster, if we do not claim seats we will be EXCLUDED from participation, even though we were elected by our constituents. Thank God the system at Holyrood is more modern.

Prima Nocte (aka Droit du seigneur) is a myth btw.

"So if you read in the media that there has been a dispute over Commons seating, do not think this is trivial or that the SNP members are being childish"

They apparently set up a rota waiting outside the commons door as they were waiting on the opportunity to run in to grab Skinner's normal seat on the actual Labour front bench, not because they needed that seat, but because it was in the camera angle they wanted, so for the duration so they could sit their promoting themselves and making an ar*e of themselves during PMQs etc. That's nothing to do with exclusion from parliament.

"Prima Nocte (aka Droit du seigneur) is a myth btw."
So I've read myself.

@Alias
Oil prices slumping further thanks to the increase in shale gas extraction world-wide.

What, with that and taking selfies ... what a bunch of Silly Numpty Prats

Scotland's embarrassment. (akabula note spelling - what school did you go to son?)

The LieDems lied about tuition fees five years ago, thus enabling themselves to become the Tories' flunkeys and grab a few crumbs of power. During the indyref campaign, the LieDems and other BitterTorygether components lied to older voters, telling them they'd lose their state pensions in the event of a YES vote, and lied to Polish and other immigrants, telling them they'd be repatriated in the event of a YES vote. Thus we shouldn't really be surprised at Carmichael's behaviour, because despicable though it is, he and the LieDems have exposed form in lying and smearing in attempts to gain electoral advantage, which was undoubtedly the purpose with his latest, pre general election dirty trick.

David Mundell is now Tory gauleiter for Scotland, undemocratically so since he is the sole Tory MP in Scotland. They have no mandate. He was Carmichael's understudy prior to the election, and it is impossible to believe that his hands, and very possibly those of others, have escaped staining in this episode.

who was the dirty f***er who dropped their guts in the house yesterday?

Scotland's embarrassment - Rangers/SEVCO.

Those true blues akabula, trilby and stewarty b tell it like it is.

Hardly been there 5 minutes and already shamed us with their antics.
They just don't know how to behave in public.
Surprised no bricks thrown yet from the Jackbooters but give them time.

Love it trilby.

He does tend to dig himself in a hole

Oor Ali pretending not to be reading this Fred

www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-32930488

SNP supporters have lodged a complaint against Alistair Carmichael at the Court of Session.
They are asking for the election result to be set aside and a new election to take place.
All because he lied over the French/Sturgeon memo.
Salmond and Sturgeon told a bigger lie over EU membership. Hypocrites.

Comical Ali busy hard boiling bricks

I thort he was on 15k a week to tend his garden.

His "arris" certainly dropped a few!

LOL, Salmoned, hook, line and stinker!

He knew it was coming. He's a plonker.

how is yer lib/dem liar?

wee eck showed his lack of intelligence walking into that one from Andrew Neil , what a fkn tard!

no one is perfect..wee eck is still smarter than most of his opponents.

Wee Eck was a feckin liability and the SNP knew that.
He's getting shunted out of the picture by Sturgeon.
Made an ar5e of himself too many times with cheap publicity seeking stunts.

Up there with Cathkin Braes.
Haven't you noticed how far down the batting order in the SNP Salmond has went?
Didn't you realise how little the SNP have utilised him since he forfeited his position?
He's been exposed for the huffer and puffer he is.
Try to get an understanding of something before you comment on it ffs.

and you call me boring??

what do you think of your only mp in scotland?
I wont expect an answer.

that Andrew neil thing and the way salmond walked into it reminded me of sugar ray leonard windmilling his right hand and hitting duran with a left hook.

You probably noticed the 56 SNP MPs all wearing a white rose for the state opening of parliament.
Seemingly this is a tradition and the chosen rose is the aptly named Scottish White Rose.
Pity then that the rose they actually wore was the Ethiopian White Rose. Mugs.

Salmond at his best in parliament. Accused of being an 19th century bully boy with an agenda against women.

Oink Oink

Nicola not doing much better in the Scottish parliament.

Gave the Police a massive pat on the back for their sterling work a couple of weeks before their chief was forced to resign for their poor performance.
Then told the parliament that massive advances had been made in the NHS in relation to bed blocking.
"Targets delivered" she announced in that smug little fashion of hers.
"Really?" asked Kezia Dugdale as she explained that the 2011 figure of 200k days had risen more than threefold to 612k days.
Still no apology from Sturgeon for misleading parliament.

It's about time that Sturgeon got her eye back on the ball rather than mentioning a further referendum at every opportunity.
The people of Scotland voted NO with only 38% of the electorate voting yes. Get over it.

WHY? Because they had the audacity to clap? OK, so what happened after Hilary Benn's speech a few nights ago? Clapping, whooping and shouting 'cos they've got another war. Sick, phuqn sick.

That was to signify that the argument was won.

What is the logic of bombing ISIS in Iraq, where they have been hampered in their efforts to claim more territory, and not bomb on the other side of an arbitrary line?

That was to signify that the argument was won.

So are you saying that is IS regular to clap in the commons?


The RAF is reported to have bombed an oil installation a couple of nights ago. Given the attacks from the US, Russia, France, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and others, how come this sitting duck oil target was still there, just waiting to make Cameron look good? Have you considered how it all pleases certain industrialists, who might just happen to be Tory supporters? Have you noticed just how often the word "Brimstone" has been mentioned on TV and radio over the last week? Couldn't be a sales pitch, surely?

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/syria-air-strikes-see-bae-systems-and-other-weapons-manufacturers-share-prices-spike-a6760641.html

More weapons made and sold here, more hatred for Europe and the US churned out over there. Who said the days of Empire were gone?

Not really bothered whether they clap or not tbh - a very trivial matter.

Pacifists such as Corbyn has never been in favour of military action under any circumstances.

He even opposed the NATO action in Kosovo to protect the muslim population from genocide.

Perhaps you could accompany him on a trip to try and make peace with those lovely IS chaps.
