...there are very few Tories in Scotland and out of those even less in the party.

Maybe they’ll get lynched?

Ironically they ban Jerry Sadowicz but allow the adult Muppet Show to go ahead?

Got a feeling this will turn ugly…..

[Ellipsis]

What is the full name of the Tory party you're a member of, Tora?

[wolf63]

I don't think that they will get much of an audience.

Maggie T visited Perth years and years ago and since our office had a direct sight of the front of the City Hall we had Police officers all over the place. It was a government office!

[naomi24]

Waste of time.

[webbo3]

I expect the anti-English Rob Roy brigade will be along with their opinions soon.

[ToraToraTora]

Freeeeedoooomm!

Y'all insist you love us then start with your disdain and snide comments.

Are you schizophrenic or just bams playing to the gallery?

Asking for a laugh.

[ToraToraTora]

sorry doogie, just can't see the point of the Tories doing Hustings in Scotland. It'd be like the 4 by 2s canvassing Riyadh.

[douglas9401]

I know it's just bluster for effect, Tora, but it's idiotic me old china.

[Paigntonian]

Yes, there are very few Tories in Scotland. Is that a question?

[naomi24]

I can’t see the point of them doing it anywhere. If people are bothered enough to join a political party - and it’s the members who get to vote - it’s reasonable to assume they have a keen interest in politics and would be aware of the attributes of both runners anyway.

Tora, why when you're on here, stating you're a Tory party member, talking about the party hustings, don't you abide by even the "minimum standards of behaviour" that you agreed to when becoming a member?

https://www.conservatives.com/code-of-conduct
The Party expects basic standards of behaviour from its members. The Party can fairly expect these standards, equally, from all its members no matter who they are or what position they hold in the Party.

Anti-Discrimination

Every Party member must not discriminate against, bully, harass or victimise any other person because of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation. These are called the “protected characteristics” and are found in the Equality Act 2010.

Anti-bullying and harassment

Every Party member must not bully or harass anyone for any reason.

Tolerance and Respect of other Individuals

Political discourse can be very robust and adversarial. People are entitled to hold and express opinions, views and outlooks that others may strongly disagree with.

However, whatever they might think about those opinions, views and outlooks, Party members are expected to have basic, common respect for, and tolerate, those individuals who may offer them and have the right to express them.

//gone a bit quiet on the Rambona thread....//

Probably because both of you stopped posting? Lol

[tomus42]

Just did a quick Google and apparently 10% of Tory party members live in Scotland.

I'd say that's worth a trip, or put it another way, you wouldn't want to ignore them if the other candidate wasn't.

Berates Corbyn over anti-Semitism, uses anti-Semitic derogatory term.
In the same manner that he claims to like the Scots but ridicules them at every given opportunity.
Has Truss for his avatar and champions her, she’s the biggest 5Cer ever as a Remainer who once wanted the monarchy abolished.
Doesn’t know sch!t from clay! PMSL.

[Old_Geezer]

With that attitude there always will be very few right wing voters in Scotland.

[Paigntonian]

Let the Scots do their own thing. I can see no reason to grieve if Scots decide to leave the Union. Hopefully, they will go on to great things. I hope so.

[douglas9401]

Just for my bezzy mate. :-)
