LABOUR have calculated they don’t need or want Scottish votes (Keir Starmer’s praise of Margaret Thatcher an ‘insult’ to Scotland, says Humza Yousaf, thenational.scot, Dec 3). Scottish Labour tossed out with the useless rubbish. No recycling for them. (Perhaps they consider Scottish Labour voters are thick as mince too.)
Even with the passing of decades, if you are not aware of and do not understand what Thatcher’s legacy is within Scotland, I guess you really are tabloid-sucking, brain dead and blinkered.

You can’t make this stuff up. What a stunningly back-stabbing and arrogant attitude Starmer displays. This is so mad, it can only truly be what Starmer and all Labour are. I worry about recent worker heroes like Mick Lynch – surely he and others must have known what was afoot?

STARMER’S Labour whole pitch seems to be “We are like the Tories but a bit nicer, vote for us”.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
