But enough about Farage, I want to see how deep Coohoolin can make the hole he's currently in.

In other news, instead of using that massive government ability to, you know, use taxation to raise public funds to invest in infrastructure, instead every single one of us will fund the larger part of £375 billion worth of upgrades through increased bills to the tune of £250b worth - even though it is acknowledged the general public are pretty hosed for money anyway. Good job!

FWIW, Stuart Campbell (of Wings Over Scotland) isn't just a transphobe, he's just a straight up misogynist. There's a reason most pro-independence people are starting to distancing themselves, especially after the Rowling debacle; he's poison.

The RIRA can go gently caress themselves, the Provos and the "Official" IRA I don't have much of a problem with. It's still not the loving point because I brought up these groups while having a go at fluo for defending the british military as being fighters for peace justice and the liberal way or some horseshit.

I have no idea what the Cornton Vale issue is but what's misogynistic about calling out Ruth Davidson and some other labour shill for literally saying that if Scotland goes independent, there will be more rape in the world??

From the discussion about a Tory MP buying up a social housing estate in last month's thread:goddamnedtwisto posted:Shoreditch and environs are home to the original social housing projects, established by private charity (and with policies that really aren't too different from modern "affordable" housing policy - they wanted exactly the right kind of poor people and were careful only to rent to artisans, not to labourers). This estate was originally one of those but wasn't either swallowed up by the council after WW2 like the Boundary Estate nearby (the best-known of these projects) or had very strong covenants applied to it like the Peabody and Toynbee estates. I'd never heard of the Boundary estate before and looked it up:   That's a very handsome-looking set of buildings indeed. It's a shame the architects of later council developments didn't take some cues from them rather than going hog wild with the concrete - might have made the estates more resistant to residualization. The search also led me to this blog, which documents council housing around London. The diversity of it is pretty surprising: http://www.lovelondoncouncilhousing.com/    Kill all 60s architects IMO (well, aside from the guy who did World's End. also, naming a housing development the World's End Estate - awesome or most awesome?).

Crossposting from last thread:Coohoolin posted:in case anyone takes this assclown seriously, i have previously and repeatedly expressed my disappointment with stuart campbell for his comments misgendering chelsea manning and am of the opinion he was very wrong to do so. pissflaps and anyone else following the last scotpol thread knows this, and pissflaps is merely trying to wind me up or stir up some poo poo about stuart campbell, who despite being a pretty big rear end in a top hat about chelsea manning and hillsborough runs a pretty loving good blog about media bias and mistruths RE the scottish independence referendum. Wait Stuart Campbell's a transphobe? As in, used-to-edit-Amiga-Power Stuart Campbell? Edit: Fairly sure it's the same guy. Well that's disappointing

He was standing as UKIP candidate in 1997 election. My sister said he came across as vile. She went to an all girls school and everyone found him creepy and bigoted and he kept making borderline sexist jokes. Not well advised talking to a girls school 6th form in that manner.

thehustler posted:Crossposting from last thread: Yup, same person. Guy frankly just doesn't know when to say "I'm wrong" about anything and instead just digs deeper and deeper while somehow managing to say more offensive, utterly reprehensible poo poo. If he stayed on subjects where he actually does his homework (i.e. the independence referendum and calling out the media) then he'd be tolerable. But as it stands there's hardly a week goes by where he isn't getting into some stupid slapfight on twitter. Sad thing is, it drags down misinformed, well intentioned people, who defend his bullshit based on his independence stuff and end up losing credibility by association. Frankly, it might be better if he bowed out of the whole independence debate but he won't now, since he's made so much money.

Leggsy posted:Opposing conscription by a government you don't support and "refusing to fight Hitler" are two very different things. They literally said the war against Hitler wasn't Scotland's war. If they weren't planning on outright collaboration in the event of a German victory, they were engaged in wholesale denial of reality. Anyway, I'm mainly pissed off with Coohoolin for coming out in support of the IRA when he knows full well that several regulars in these threads had family members murdered by them. I don't think he's a Nazis, just woefully immature and trying too hard to piss off his Tory parents.

Coohoolin posted:If we're doing "what ifs" I'm pretty sure Dutschke and Meinhof wouldn't have stood for his conversion to fascism. His bit about Hillsborough is entirely based upon how much of an unhinged closet Man United supporter he is, not that I'd ever want to brush other Man U fans with the same broad strokes. He spent years on his forums whinging about the unfairness of how Premiership money was distributed to Liverpool, whilst simultaneously talking about how great Alex Ferguson was because he came from "his club". He'd also throw a total shitfit if someone was English and offered their temporary support behind the Scottish team at any point.

In related milchat, happy First Day of the Somme Day everybody! On this day in 1916, 700 members of the Accrington Pals battalion launched an attack on the village of Serre, during which 235 were killed and a further 350 wounded, all but wiping out the unit. If anyone is in the Accrington area and wants to honour their sacrifice/throw bricks at soldiers, there is a military parade through the town centre at noon...
