  1. The Greens have probably picked the worst time possible (for themselves) to do this. By far the main reason the SNP entered into this agreement, is to the get the budget passed relatively easily each year, instead of the normal excruciating negotiations they used to have to go through in the past. The budget has been passed for this year so the SNP have nothing to lose until budget time next year. I'm guessing that if the members vote to end the BHA, Harvie and Slater will resign and they may even leave the party. Wouldn't be surprised if they joined the SNP.
  2. Did she forget or did she just hope that nobody would notice. 🤣 As you say....Politicians?
  3. If he picks forrest I'm sending my tickets back
  4. Oh aye, I read it wrong. You're right, a pitch invasion was OTT. 👍
  5. Good. Hopefully he won't pick up an injury sitting on the bench?
  6. I seem to remember it being a great tackle from a Brasilian defender? Could be wrong though.
  7. One positive for Clarke is that he now won't have to worry about having to drop players who were expecting to go. 🤣Especially if it is a 26 man squad. Not long ago, some folk on here were debating endlessly about who he will drop if it's a 23 man squad. When it was obvious that he just had to wait to see who was eventually available. Now it looks like we will struggle to get a good 20 man squad out of what is left. And still time for more injuries yet.
  8. When else can fans celebrate if not when winning the league? They will probably have fuck all to celebrate next season.
  9. Some folk on here were writing Armstrong off a wee while ago. The way things are going he could turn out to be one of our most important players in Germany.
  10. Or maybe his family are heavily invested in vaping technology? I'd hope that even this version of corrupt Tories wouldn't be that blatant in their levels of corruption, though? Wouldn't put anything past them. Last big payday before he gets kicked oot the door? 🤣
  11. It is supposed to work the same way as other legislation does. If you make something illegal then hopefully less people will do it. The same as compulsory seat belts, mobile phones whist driving. Folk say things like "It's impossible to enforce it". And whilst that may be true, it doesn't mean we shouldn't make them illegal. It's the same with folk who come out with this "Freedom of choice" bollocks. At the time, folk said things like "I have the freedom of choice to get killed in a car crash if I want to" (I might be paraphrasing a wee bit). Society (through our governments) decided that people should no longer have that choice.
  12. I think you might have missed the point of this legislation. The main idea is to try to reduce the number of young people taking up smoking in the first place. How many folk are going to think about taking up smoking when they reach 44? The human race is a bit crazy. We have know for at least half a century that smoking kills people, and it's probably going to be another half century before we decide to ban it. All to put huge amounts of money into the pockets of already very wealthy corporations.
