I never said he should vote labour. I said don't let people on FB calling Tory voters cunrs sway you. If you want to vote Tory do it because you believe in them.
As for me wanting you all to vote Labour? We need to get rid of the Tories. We need a ref on Brexit. We can better get that if we are part of an anti Tory coalition.

Corbyns manifesto mirrors ours. If you remember the SNP were the only party that argued against austerity and the need for investment to boost the economy and protect services and the NHS, last election.

Corbyn has followed that and we like him. He is left wing and for once the Labour Party is fighting for working class people.

We don't want Brexit. We will not suffer endless Tory governments. A pact with labour makes political and moral sense, as for me the Tories are selfish, greedy, incompetent bastards.

So, that's why.
Magicpole I tend to agree with your post, but the snp are not a left wing or anti-austerity party and never have been, a populist party yes but not left or social democratic.

The snp may have talked anti-austerity but they still went ahead with it slashing public services, and as for Corbyn follows the snp ideas? for the last 30 yrs he has been preaching left wing policy similar to what we have now.

I understand why Scotland votes snp in hollyrood, for me that makes sense as that seat of government affects most of daily scotish life, but for the life of me I don't get why Scots that don't want UK tory rule waste their Parliamentry vote on snp as all that does is weaken labours numbers and strenghens the tories with a split opposition if the cons win.
As for brexit, if the SNP were truely left leaning and anti-austerity they would want to leave the EU as it's no friend of smaller nations within it, as Greece found out.
 
That may be why corbyns message has been heard by the general population as the internal sniping has stopped during the election.

I think that's true, except that tosser ed balls still cannot shut up, makes you think if labour would be in with a bigger chance if they had just backed him from the start.

And binned Abbott earlier, a lot of people will note vote for her and they should have picked this up earlier.

But let's see what happens tomorrow as it has been a strange year.
 
Had both my cataracts done by BMI but paid for by the NHS. Great service.
I really can't see the problem myself for private care providers delivering bulk fairly low risk treatments. It will save the NHS money.
I would have a problem with core higher-risk services though. The risk mitigation costs simply can't be carried by a private business without corners being cut.
So long as the service is free to the public who really cares?
