How much more evidence do voters need that Biffo is a bottler when it comes to real governance rather than being in goverment?

In 2000 the Women's Institute in Britain gave Tony Blair the slow hand clap to demonstrate their contempt.
It was dignified, restrained and effective.Doesn't Bertie deserve the same scorn. No shouting, no abuse, no agression just a relentless slow clap whenever he speaks in public would be enough to end that man's presidential fantasy.
If you agree copy the signature in to yours and lets get the whole country slow clapping Bertie.

So now McDaid from the far side also is playing the ultimatum game ...

This takes the bolshie lefties out of play

That presumes the Bolshies are bluffing.

Are they?

A poll on something that has yet to happen??? Perhaps we should all be applying for jobs with Irish Psychics or whatever that asewipes company is called.
