Why Scotland needs SNP and Greens to get back together

  1. If it’s so they can catch the Megabus and head south I’m all for it. I’m not biased they can all leave. We’d be better with random chance at this stage.

  2. We need a lot of things, but we certainly do not need this.

  3. Pictured: one of the most incompetent and hapless ministers in Scottish history. 

    Satire is dead.

  4. Kicking the Greens out of government might be the stupidest political decision I’ve seen in my life. Actually baffled at how the SNP thought that would go well for them.

  5. It’s because the SNP can’t operate in parliament and can only do things in back room deals

  6. >our electoral system prevents results like this summer’s ridiculous outcome at Westminster, where a party that won barely 34 per cent of the vote ended up with 63 per cent of the seats, and an overwhelming mandate to govern unchecked for the next five years. 

    I had no idea the labour share of the vote was *that* low.   

    It’s ridiculous that 34% of the vote gives such unbridled control and dominance.   

    Then you compare that to people trying to argue that the Scottish government don’t have a mandate when they fall just shy of 50% of the vote.

  7. No they dont, the greens had far to much power and lost the SNP a lot of votes, both their main policies they forced through got over turned by Westminster and businesses lost a lot of money on recycling machines that are sitting doing nothing, the greens threatened to walk away, thinking they could strong arm the SNP, Yousaf did us all a favour getting rid of them, I gave them my second vote, but never again
