Hogmanay Party at Sturgeon's ???

We don’t have to get on. The whole point is it’s a free for all?

And still you don’t want to do it.??‍♀️

Don't bother I don't think we would get on ?

The last thing I am is a fan of Sturgeon but posting her home address is simply unacceptable. It's hard to understand why people just don't get it. There are nutters out there. Two politicians have already been murdered. It's not a prank. It's not clever and it's not funny.

I’ll come on New Years Day instead?

Me? Only ever been there three times in 70 something years.

I can’t see the funny side of fictionally posting that there is a party at someone’s home address.

Obviously you wouldn’t like it because you’re not going to give us yours.

Lots of Scottish football fans not happy with Sturgeon

Oh look, that's just what I said....

We'll let the idiots bit pass as we're getting just far too personal now. And I get told off for making nasty remarks

Oh come on Maudi I don't expect you'd get a thousand people at your front door because you're not a First Minister.
You'd maybe get a dozen or so and that'd be a bit of a laugh.
Are you still tittering?

I’m waiting for the address.

No?

Why ever not?

Aha! The truth will out!

Saor Alba...

Perhaps you should say that life is too short to the endless Boris basher thread posters and Brexit threads by some posters who don't even live in the UK. Sturgeon and the snp fanatics are trying to break up the United Kingdom so if I wish to dislike her and her petty politics I will. ?

Or two?

Is it BYOB?

If we knew Maudis home address we could post it and invite people to turn up at her house for New Year.

Wouldn’t that be funny. A thousand people mostly the worse for wear in your garden, hammering on your front door.

How about it Maudi? Go on, it’ll be a laugh?

No backlash from me or anyone I know. The cancellation of Edinburgh’s Hogmanay celebrations is a sensible precaution. The eejit deserves to be arrested for being an eejit.
And Maudi if you don’t live in Scotland or Wales why bother yourself with intense feelings of dislike for the First Ministers? Life is too short.

J K Rowlings address is well known ,its even pointed out on Bus tours.The FM s address is her private home on an ordinary Street in Glasgow.2000 drunken unionists turning up to intimidate her would not be funny Maudi

If we want honest, hardworking, respectable people to enter our Councils, governments etc - then we need to stop endangering (or just disrupting) their family's life. Maybe the lack of such people in today's politics is a direct result of such attacks. Who would want to put their husband/wife/children through such things as are now being suggested.

Some people may think it funny to post such childish messages on social media - but it isn't. Anybody who finds this amusing must have a very warped sense of humour.

Tell the truth and shame the devil Blossoming

Dear me Alegrias1 have you been telling the truth and correcting misinformation again?

I’m in Scotland, am neither a fan of the SNP nor NS, but think this man should be severely punished. As previous posters have said, it’s a dangerous time to be in politics.
Aveline the three who “protested” outside JKR’s house removed themselves from Twitter after first trying to portray themselves as the victims in the scenario. I don’t know if JKR has taken legal action against them.

"obviously not good to publish a personal address but it was nipped in the bud " No, it wasn't nipped in the bud. Ten times nore people will have seen that address than registered for the non-existent "party" and they won't have forgotten. Her neighbours know it already, but she can hardly go in and out for the messages, school run etc incognito. Now fanatics all over the UK know exactly where she lives, and can look on Google Maps to find the layout of the street and plan whatever fanatics plan for political targets. That could be pepper spray, an armed ambush, a kidnap, if you can imagine it, someone somewhere has already thought it a good idea.

If you worked in some job where you could make enemies, would you like your address plastered all over Facebook with a suggestion that those reading it should meet up there at midnight with a few bevvies in them? No, it is not a giggle.

bevvies = drinks
messages = shopping

No I thought this thread would be light hearted and frivolous but judging by some of the posters who have posted they are obviously not very jolly at the moment unlike me.

Not feeling very jolly at the moment, Maudi, not having seen half my family for over 2 years.
I will try to be jolly and pull a cracker tomorrow.

I don't agree with anyone having a go at Mark Drakeford - we're expecting Omicron to hit in January in Wales and he's just ahead of the game by introducing restrictions now. He's very sensible and has taken all the right decisions throughout the pandemic. Unlike the dithering Boris.

I agree.

So you know about Edinburgh in August and the money-making scheme that is Edinburgh's Hogmanay.

I hadn't heard of it until DD and (Welsh) friends went to Edinburgh in summer a few years ago - they enjoyed it!
My dear Scottish friend loathed Hogmanay!

If it was a joke it backfired, using the official address might just have been a bit amusing but very reckless with Omicron around.

The title did sound as if this might be frivolous Maudi but it turned out that the thread is about a criminal act that could still cause harm because of the FM's private address becoming widely known.
I don't understand why you continue to giggle about it.

Bit off topic, so apologies in advance.

I find it a bit port, kettle, black that some posters find it a useful exercise to pursue other posters across different threads and copy their posts from the other threads in order to make nasty little unfounded digs about them. A suspicious person would think they are being targeted. ? I guess we'll see who else comes along.

In the meantime, I won't be giggling about any politician's address being put on the internet and I won't be calling anybody childish names.

Back to the topic.
