If I was a Tory (a thread): I would watch my enemy closely, the enemy that comes between me and my colleagues making a lot of money. I would see my foes attitude to inclusivity, fairness and equality as their greatest weakness and I would ensure that this would be their ultimate
downfall as this attitude wouldnt allow them to fight dirty, like I do. I would see the cracks, the in-fighting, the man against woman, the government against the people, the woman against woman, the blogs against the party and I would use this. I would place others within the
party, I would use my ill gotten gains and pay off the trojan horses who have infiltrated and allow them to drip their poison throughout the party and supporters. Everyone has a price. I will divide the support, over and over again, I will use every covert tactic I have. I wont
need to do much, I will sit back and watch it all unravel. They will destroy the best hopes they have ever had of becoming an independent Scotland. I will pit NS against AS, there will be subterfuge, speculation and there will be a bias media alongside once supportive bloggers.
Finally, there will be voters. All infuriated about one thing or another. The TRA's, the vicious evil spouting from those demanding to be heard (or else), the lack of party action, the threats to abandon the party because they wont do exactly what each voter wants immediately.
As far as I can make out there are now about half a dozen factions all demanding they are right and that everyone that opposes them are stupid, naive or delusional. We have the media doing their SNP bad thing which we have paid them to do. The small flames have been fed and have
now become a raging fire of destruction and I havent even broken a sweat. My job is done....if I was a Tory! What if I was a supporter of independence instead? What if I could see exactly what is happening? Each supporter being manipulated & unwittingly fuelling the fire.
Passing on tit bits of information, horrified at the next piece of divisive legislation, some information may be clear, some may be innuendo and some just quite plainly taken out of context in order to excite or infuriate my friends and followers and to bolster my beliefs.
After all this time and with polls so high in our favour does it not make sense to stand back and question why this has happened, at this exact point in time. We are happy to question WM because they are proven liars but it is more difficult to question an ally or politician
in who, we have placed out trust before. So do we abandon the only working vehicle we have? Should we accept horror and discomfort in the future because we wont accept different opinions now? Yes, we need to hold the SNP to account. Yes, they need to do better and try and read
the room so as to work for the benefits of the majority while improving this country for all of it's citizens. We also need to accept that no party will ever align 100% with every one of us, thats a fact. The whole point of democracy is to talk, to work together and to find
compromises that support everyone (to an extent). No one person is bigger than the movement or this moment that is almost upon us. Ask yourself this, if you think you are angry and pissed off now about one or two issues, how will you feel when those issues have ruined your only
chance to have a say about them in the future? So my last point (i am sure you will be glad to hear), who is ultimately benefiting from internal fighting right now? I will guarantee you one thing, if the vote in May does not fall in favour of the SNP, every single one of these
current issues is moot. That noise in your ears will be the Tories laughing as they press the detonator that destroys Holyrood and Scotland's chance of Independence forever. So by all means carry on with the bickering, without independence it wont matter - no one wins, except WM
