The audacity of these people.

[wully]

I trust we will all be voting for Claymore?


If I could choose it would be the Glen Farce.

Why haven’t the board of CalMac been sacked over their dismal performance in maintaining a viable fleet? People will no doubt be blaming the SNP since the media has been training the sheeple to do for a while now and sure they carry some blame but they are not a ferry operating company.

And before you do blame the SNP for incompetence first look at the aircraft carriers, new WMD submarines, H2S, London Crossrail, add that cost up and then look again.

BTW , I see our new PM’s family managed to do quite nicely out of a deal with Bp who have suddenly, unexpectedly benefitted massively from the contracts Rishi is handing out. You know, in the North Sea that had no future a few years ago around some referendum…. What wonderful timing by his relatives huh?

Indeed let’s get Claymore voted for, a fitting tribute for a reliable stalwart.

I don’t think anyone comes out of this smelling of roses, no glory here. CMal who own the ferries, Cal Mac who operate them, Ferguson’s and the SNP all had their part to play.

This article in Wikipedia details the debacle.

I was farting about with AIS on by boatie today and noticed the Glen Sannox proudly firing her name aboot the place through the hemisphere. If they've got the AIS on, surely she must be about ready to rumble?
