If you're that blind you can't see the evidence from the Holyrood broadcasts I pity you. After all, it is actually highlighting Sturgeon's and the SNP's performance.

Correct, some people can't see the wood for the trees

It's the same down here in Wales...

If it's Bad - It's Westminster wot dun it! If it's good - What a great job we're doing!

Taking independence out of the equation, what policies do Scottish Labour have that are better than those the SNP offer Scotland?

According to the Tory council election leaflet...........if the SNP 'get back to the day job' and improve schools and education.. the Tories will oppose them every step of the way.

Does anyone read these things before they are sent out.

The ability not to believe a word the First Minister says.

Oh! just a minute, even the SNP don't believe her, they know what shes doing.

You have no ideas on Scottish Labour policies better than SNP ones then ?
Surprised as you are usually so full of political enlightenment.

Just had a good read of all 4 party websites. The SNP's is the slickest, with a number of metrics, closely followed by the LibDems. I'd put the Tories in 3rd with, disappointingly, Labour in 4th.

My concerns with the SNP's headline grabbing policies is who is going to fund them? Show me a sustainable budget and I'll vote for them... From a socialist perspective they are refreshing but if they are so good why have 152,000 student places disappeared in recent times?

"The Scots have something to thank England for, with the decision to exit the EU driving down the pound, and the sterling’s weakness having significant impact on exports in the second half of 2016, the SWA says. "

17,000, crikey!

Must have been a big banner

From a conurbation of 2.8 million. No doubt some of the 17,000 travelled to Glasgow from afar.

So less than 1% of the voting public turned out, and that turns you on...!? Oh my sides!

I don't see or feel anything like the interest or appetite for Indyref2 just now that was present in 2014 for Indyref1, need to get this GE out the way and see what Brexit raises over the next 18 months or so before re-looking at Indyref2 or other options, don't mind Sturgeons stance about looking at the issue again then, Scottish parliament approved Indyref2 by democratic vote a couple of months ago anyway so it is already approved democratically before any new Holyrood elections in 2021, Mays 'now is not the time' seemed very wrong given she then called her own GE, regardless of that I don't think any marches in Glasgow at the moment are going to achieve very much of anything. Went completely under my radar anyway.

Interesting play with figures on this, Police say 15k, organisers say 17k and another Indyref2 state 25k on their fb page today.

Wooooosh! Looks like thousands of banners to me unless they are all diddy people.

There's an answer to that but best not.

Don't spoil it for Doon. He's wetting himself and drooling over the pretty pictures
