@LloydAMelville Nice one Lloyd. Presume you know the “secret plan”. Any snippets you can give us?

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@GrahamSpiers Why didn’t they just invade the pitch with 5 minutes to go? “Exuberance” etc….

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@AlasdairStephen @afneil “Losing” a reasonable proportion would be a good start….

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@bladerunner1951 @RussellFindlay1 What would it do differently?

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@kevintarkovsky @kevverage @MerrynSW Given FFA is official SNP policy, why don’t they publish some estimates of what it would look like? Totally unserious posturing until they do…..

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@edintravel Expected crowd?

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@StephenFlynnSNP Did you formulate your plan for the supermarket price caps in the car? Must be close to 100 days now…?

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@Billy_Kenna @BroraGolfClub @bunkeredgolf @GolfMonthly @AskernishGC @ScottishGolf @PGAScotland Impressive 👏

@afneil @British_Airways Until the load factors start dropping, they 100% DONT CARE

@PaulJSweeney @themajorityscot Why wasn’t it fully insured? And who was responsible?

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@afneil And Scots who would like (and are able) to pay the fees are also specifically excluded!

@Daniel_Rapaport About a 60/1 double. Place your bets Dan - all legal in the UK!

@theweeflea @nats_tired @larabirdsnp @theSNP And some of the brightest (esp if privately educated) can’t get into Scottish Unis because of quotas. So they go down south (or overseas) and never return. Great policy - very forward thinking.

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@Ross_Greer It’s performative nonsense, that’s why. And so is the bond issue…..

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@HolyroodSources @CalumAM @akmaciver @geoffaberdein Burnham is looking to devolve further powers to the regions/nations

FFA is official Scot Gov policy

So why aren’t they making the case - with modelling to back up?

Frit - or just without a plan?

Either way, a totally unserious “government”!

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@Malcolm_Offord FFA is official SNP policy. So if they’re even close to resembling a serious government, presumably they’d be capable of publishing the modelling behind said policy?

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@LottieWoad Best keep them fresh for another 4 years I think! Play well….

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@Morphington @staylorish Indeed. And isn’t that the very definition of “modeling”? In other words, they don’t have a clue. Totally unserious.

[Mark Finnie @edifinman]

@Erudite4Unity @ReformUKScot Is gaining 17 seats from a standing start a “flop”. What adjective do you use to describe Labour’s result? 🤷‍♂️
