I liked this too:

The Scottish Government is considering putting up taxes for the highest earners from next year, Finance Secretary Derek MacKay has confirmed. But business leaders and opposition parties have warned that the move could drive away high earners with Scots already facing higher income tax levels than elsewhere in the UK.

Lol, you don't like the question, even trying to change the question.
It's obvious you don't like the answer.

Oh and the bold, large font is not needed.

I'm not trolling, I'm just posting on a debate board.

Is the definition of a Troll, someone whom you don't like their opinions?

Yada yada yada.

Crack on, I sure any mods will clearly see my posts are not spam, not trolling and simply attempting to have a topical discussion and debate on the "Debate House Prices and the Economy board"

What a surprise that you would say that.
Not.
ISTL posted a large number of posts first, if you look.
So the contrary is in fact true; I am responding to ISTL's multiple posts.
Another description for those may be spam BTW.
We already know how much you wish no dissent was evident within these pages, don't we?
Which is why you yourself are often guilty of "clusterposting".

I may encourage others to report for spam if this continues and if they too feel it appropriate.

If you had any b***s you'd be reporting it yourself instead of moaning about it publically hoping for pats on the back from other posters.
You've posted just as much yourself over the last few pages, which I've had to plough through losing the will to live.. but uncomplaining since you have as much right to a say as anyone else on a discussion forum and should be afforded the courtesy.

Personal attacks just derail the threads. If you want to talk about Scotland then talk about Scotland. If you want to accuse others of spamming and trolling, hit up the moderators and let them decide ( and don't be surprised to receive the same reports about yourself )..instead of just using bigger and bolder fonts to shout troll at complete strangers who are trying to engage with you in debate.

Now shall we get back on topic ? Or do I have to start a new thread ? *entire forum cowers in horror* :cool::cool::cool:

"but uncomplaining" - that whole post is one long complaint!
:rotfl:
Will this new thread have clusterposting from one poster on it too?

It seems criticised for not putting up the rate, criticised for looking into it.
It's a no-win situation from some it seems

No. You're not a moderator.

It was a joke....hence the smiley face

Are there going to be no jokes in your wonderful "progressive" empire; unless they are sanctioned by the state!

Example...

2 loyal, non imperialist party members walk into a LGBT/disabled/ethnic friendly non alcoholic discussion bar.

"Why the long faces" says the gender neutral counter assistant?

" Composite 546 was approved at conference today....."

"Without the ammendment"........:rotfl::rotfl:

iScotland; even the jokes are better, (if you believe the spin).

Just ignore ISTL. It's a forum pile on and responding to them all will just derail the thread ( which is what they want to do ).

Labour’s evaporation in Scotland reinforces my view that the Scots face an enviable choice on June 8, and one which makes the general election there more exciting than perhaps anywhere else in the Kingdom.

A straight choice between the SNP and the Tories isn’t one between nationalism and Unionism, because only a referendum can decide that; and the chance of one deciding to change the status quo in the present climate are, as Nicola Sturgeon well knows, nil.

It is a choice between a hardline, confiscatory and redistributive socialism that borders on Bolshevism, and a liberal conservatism that champions private enterprise, aspiration, prosperity and efficiency.

Voters should also notice how badly the SNP run public services, notably education. To takes seats off the SNP now will prove that the Sturgeon ideal of a Scottish republic with her as Queen has been effectively put in the dustbin,..............
