Comment posted Helensburgh candidates putting the rules back by Simon.
Stpehen – but if you mark them JOKE – then they are supposed to be funny!!!
The ‘light-hearted post’ and ‘light hearted comment’ were about as funny as week in jail.
Have a good day 
Simon also commented
- WCHB – Are you sure you didn’t mean “Hearsay! Hearsay! Burn them! Burn them!”????
- See what happened there Lowry??
Newsie comes on with a non-story – non attributed, no quotes and no evidence. You ask a more than reasonable question and the next two posters – Crazy and Stepehen ignore your poiint and comment on the Newsie’s non-story.
Gawd help us all if these half-wit zealots get in…

- Radically new council group changes all the dynamics: party politics dead in Argyll
H20 – “Roddy is not fit to lead”.Much closer to the truth is the fact that the SNP are not fit to govern.
I predict months of squabbling ahead as former ‘colleagues’ begin to really turn nasty.
It’ll be interesting to hear Audit Scotland’s take on this. And also to hear more about the alleged improper conduct re the sale of Castle Toward – which has slipped in under the FA radar.
- Argyll and Bute Council: Councillor McCuish leads again
I see you’ve finally caught up Newsie and amended the story.If this is an accurate report of the split in the Council then you now have a split SNP with members in opposing camps.
At least the split is now official….
How long before one faction or t’other is tossed out of the SNP? When we will see the emergence of the ‘Real SNP’ ???
But really, what a shambles of a political party – I likened them weeks ago to the Judean Popular Peoples’ Front from ‘The Life of Brian’. The truth is though this has now gone way beyond parody.
- Argyll and Bute Council: Councillor McCuish leads again
What rubbish you print Newsie.“Since the names in the above group add up to 18 and exclude any current SNP members”
Gordon Blair is a current SNP member as is Isobel Strong and Robert McIntyre.
- Radically new council group changes all the dynamics: party politics dead in Argyll
So, Roddy McCuish has been appointed as the new Leader of the Council.Well that just puts me in mind of ‘you put your right hand in – right hand out – in out in out and shake it all about – you do the hokey cokey and you turn around – that’s what it’s all about. See’.
Will the SNP rebels be happy with this now that McCuish, Semple, Horn, Taylor and Robb seem to have re-imposed themselves?
H20 for one will certainly not be a happy budgie when he hears…

Graeme “I think we might have more regard for them”, blah, blah, pontificating blah.I think everyone might have more regard for your party and your views if the SNP if they hadn’t made such an unholy mess of their administration in the first place.
The SNP are the problem here – not the solution!

‘Illegal’ – needing planning permission? libellous? packed with porkies? – we need enlightenment.

Don;t know. Probably no more than exhausted campaigners throwing everything at it in the last day, with helpers who stick things up all over the place.

Is it fair to publish something that is only heresay about two candidates, whoever they are? If you don’t have a clue what has happened why bother saying anything – unless, of course, you have a personal bias.

The SNP must be better mannered in Helensburgh than they are in Kintyre as Unionist posters were ripped down there within hours.

Unionist posters?
What are those?
And does your correspondent, echoes of good old kintyre1, have any substantive evidence to support his implied charge?

It happens in the Dunoon and Cowal area also.
We know who does it but they come out with excuses like “do you have substantive evidence to support this implied charge” or “it wisnae me, a big boy done it and ran away”
But guess what? Their posters stay up!!!!

The fact that ” their ” posters remain untouched is all the evidence needed as to the culprits

No, Simon
That’s what Lowry meant.
Pay attention, please.
On second thoughts, the “Burn them!” should be deleted for Health and Safety reasons

Pending the announcement of what constitutes an illegal election poster, a light-hearted post was responded to with a light hearted comment.
In future such comments will be marked JOKE, to help those with a irony deficiency.
Serious comments will be marked SERIOUS, to help those with a reality deficiency.

Vivien Dance smiling benignly at the Princess Royal as both stood on the Victoria Hall steps, as seen on the front page of the Helensburgh Advertiser, when Mrs Dance had been explicitly banned from the property because of the election ‘purdah’ – how does that shape up with the rules?

Yes, Simon appears to have fallen into my troll-pit. Can I refer him to the sage advice of that great actor, Whil Wheaton?
FWIW, outside my polling station in Helensburgh today posters for Dance, Mulvaney and Robb, but not anyone else. Also bonus sighting of Mulvaney wandering down the street, looking a little lost.
