Kezia Dugdale resigns as leader of Scottish Labour.

Just on the back of Jeremy Corbyn's "tour" in Scotland as well. Possible he will be making moves to help get a left wing Scottish Labour leader and dethrone the Scottish National Party. Great for me as a lefty. Awful for me as someone who is for independence.

Jeremy Corbyn wants freedom for everyone but Scotland :/

@Egg01 It is understandable why someone would be against Scottish independence and I certainly don't like how some indy supporters demomise him for it but it is a little annoying as if he was from Scotland he is exactly the kind of guy who would be all for it I'm sure.

But he isn't. I don't demonise him, I just don't agree with him on independence. He strikes me as a decent, compassionate politician and man. I do see others bring him down though and it makes me cringe. I understand why people can be put off indy, especially the way 90% of the Scottish press push a unionist view and lies have been told, many :( Have you read the wee blue book?

No. Read a few things on it but never bought that. Why?

@thatscottishguy If you go to the Wings Over Scotland website I think they'll send you one for free. It gives you the facts and debunks the myths about independence. It's just a wee book so not too much reading!

Wouldn't want to go on that cunt's site. Embarrassment to us.

Are you sure you support independence?
thatscottishguy · 26-30, M
Yes I just don't like twats who harass people and blame Liverpool fans for Hillsborough.

@thatscottishguy You're right, that was very wrong. I read the book before all that came out and it was very enlightening. I can't support his views on Hilsborough though, I wont be visiting that sight any more. Thank you for enlightening me.
