- Russell back in the bathtub, now trying to sink Keith Brown’s boat
You Newsroom, have completely and totally lost the plot. - Most constructive move yet from the slomo pro-union side
I’m disappointed that you think the NO’s will be “…destructively bitter…”Yes, very worrying indeed!!!lol
- Will broadband, phone, postal and online purchase costs be the deal breaker on independence?
I have only one question for those in the no and undecided camp.
If all your queries were resolved regarding Independence, and I mean all, would you vote yes?and if not…why? - Russell presence at council administration away day raises concerns
And here we have ife, such an upstanding man, content to castigate, lie and turn facts on their heads while hiding his identity. In the world of www that is currently known as TROLLING.I’m with Dot and Iain, I’ve purposely visited this site less and less as the insanity has increased.
It’s impossible to debate on here,no-one is bringing sound evidence or sensible offerings.I’m fearful that if I hang around the infection may spread and I too will start frothing at the mouth and delivering spittle-flecked diatribes……you get the picture? Sorry, but there is a big internet land out there, full of far more interesting and useful discussions.
Perhaps when Independent, many voices on here will be silent……what a delicious thought. - Jackie Baillie MSP not invited to council administration away day
Perhaps only those that do zero action but plenty mouth were not required to attend!!!!!!

Astonishing. I’m surprised he didn’t also mention his pivotal role in eradicating smallpox, bringing down the Berlin Wall, female emancipation and ending slavery.
At least he has had the sense to leave the decaying shell that is the Lib Dem party (allegedly). Bit of a toxic brand anywhere in the UK these days.

I have already seen a comment from a reliable and well informed Kintyre source who was amazed that so much has been acheived single handedly by this remarkable councillor.
The LibDems must be devastated to have mislaid him.

He may have left the LibDems But he continues to act like one. Claiming individual credit for others people’s effort is known as the Alan Reid method off politics.
I always remember in the Cowal area an SNP councillor started a process of getting a 40mph limit at a stretch of the main road fronting a new housing development. He was succeeded by another SNP councillor who continued the process. A change in speed limits is effected after planning consultation and investigations and takes around 18months to 2 years or more
Come the run up to the local election the a LibDem hopeful got information that the 40 mph limit had passed and was soon to be announced. His initial leaflet was built round a demand for a 40mph limit and his eve of poll contained a self congratulatory boast that he had achieved this 40mph limit. That’s how they do it.

It might just be that he has a loyal local following regardless of party affiliations or even what he claims to have achieved.
He wouldn’t be the only councillor to have gained ‘most favoured’ status in their constituency almost regardless of their performance (in the sense of achievements, rather than acting ability).

It would appear that this is just the LibDem Janus trick working again-remember the Roman deity that could face both ways at the same time ?
Mr Colville was apparently officially nominated on the LibDem ticket.
Perhaps he was just so busy that he forgot to give them any credit for his huge list of single-handed acheivements.

I rather suspect this chaps litany of achievement neatly summaries why voters have come to despise career politicians.
Having read the piece and scrolled up to check it wasn’t an April 1st placing, perhaps FA would be kind enough to trawl the varied pamphlets in the run up to May. We need to know what other hidden genius’s lurk amongst us.

We’ve already been sent some gems (and we’ll welcome more)- so this is likely to become a series.

When I first saw this i nearly burst a blood vessel, I could easily justify cutting and pasting much of the above list but could never in a million years, claim them as MY achievements in the way Rory has.

John, The one thing Rory missed out was his final achievement which was to joint the independent group in its quest to close rural schools. I know quite a few people in the area who remember it vividly and are well aware that Rory stepped in to take the spokespersons’ allowance you’d given up.
Rory is quite clearly on the candidates list as a Liberal Democrat – http://www.argyll-bute.gov.uk/sites/default/files/Statement_of_Persons_Nominated.pdf – wonder what’s going on there?

The lib dems must be honest and admit to themselves and the electorate locally and nationally that they have got too many things so wrong in a short space of time. Many former voters for them, like myself, are wondering why the better times with the likes of the late Rae Michie and the ever popular Charles Kennedy seem a distant memory.
Time to hold the hands up, have straight talking self analysis and from that ‘get real’ and move on and re-engage.

Hahaha………that is all I have to say! Although I did notice Bruce Marshall is saying in our local paper that our council is “a caring and listening” one and education is high on his list of priorities.

Is this the same Bruce Marshall who voted to close 2 schools in his own ward and then tried to be the hero of his own invention and claim to parents that he had saved them. Beware of councillor who speaks with forked tongue.

The same Bruce Marshall who blatantly lied to a member of the public at a council meeting about a conversation he claimed to have had with the Council’s Director of Legal. A conversation the same Director later said he had no recollection of having but then back pedalled by saying he had a lot of conversations that day and he couldn’t say for sure if it did or didn’t happen.
As I said in the post about the recent press release – it is the ‘self-preservation society’

It’s not quiet in Campbeltown however. Rory’s leaflet is a big hit down here and the source of much mirth. If there was a prize locally for a work of fiction Rory’s leaflet would win hands down. Someone asked if his middle name was Jesus:-)

No mention of turning coats from either of them though…..
