My seven-day conventional text-blogging blitz to help promote my Ko-Fi fundraising page is now over, and it certainly wasn't a waste of time because it led to several new sign-ups as recurring monthly supporters, plus several hundred pounds in one-off donations. However, I did fall well short of my target of reaching 60 monthly supporters, and also a reasonable way short of the target of £1500 in one-off donations, so I'll just have to keep plugging away and hope I can reach financial sustainability before too long. The one consolation of not reaching either target is of course that I am now freed from my conditional pledge to keep pre-moderation in the comments section switched off. I might actually still leave it off for a little while longer, because as expected it's vastly boosted the number of comments, which in turn indirectly boosts the audience for the blog. But I expect I'll sooner or later reach the saturation point I always reach where the downsides start to clearly outweigh the advantages.

ReplyDeleteLOL
DeleteLOOOOOOOOOOL
Campbell is being staunchly defended by none other than Peter A Bell, he of the one man party. Perhaps Campbell can resurrect his scheme for a Wings party, which could ally with Peter's and the ATLS ? What's not to like !
Delete5.54pm What’s not to like! you don’t like Campbell fair enough, plenty don’t, but Scheme what scheme. Making stuff up again! Try sticking to truthful criticism and you may be perceived as someone with a measure of integrity.
DeleteHe likes spending the money donated by his silly cult members on legal fees. The legal profession are grateful. He is an idiot who appears never to have seen the classic punch cartoon of the lawyer speaking with his client and assuring him that he will fight his case with every penny he has got. Hopefully a judge will consider punitive damages and stop this arsehole wasting valuable and scarce court time.
DeleteAnon at 6.48. You are an idiot. Campbell considered setting up a party but quickly realised he was an unknown non entity. He sensibly retreated to his bubble and makes a nice living taking money from halfwits. How much have you given him?
Delete6.52 pm it’s your opinion I am an idiot. You have just confirmed in that post that you are a liar. Clear evidence that not only are you a liar ( there was no Scheme ) but an idiot who provides proof he is a liar.
Delete“ How much have you given him? “ asks the liar trying to deflect. The answer is nothing.
Ach 6.52pm is clearly a nicophant who is afraid his/her/they/it world is collapsing. Sturgeon getting sued and now McManus is offering to fund Campbell’s crusade against the police and copfs.
DeleteCampbell & McManus=unionists r us.
DeleteMan in England sues Scottish polis.
Delete8.23pm man on SGP is clueless. The police will not be sued. It is a Judicial Review.
DeleteSturgeon & Murrell & Robertson & Swinney = unionists r us.
DeleteMan in England seeks judicial review of Scottish polis.
DeleteMan on SGP at 9.37pm is a quick learner.
DeleteAll the signs are Paul McManus is going ahead,.! Lots of nats are going to have to learn to swallow!
DeleteMind, you held the whip hand for a long while and you rubbed anyone’s noses in it if they dared to question. So I do hope you have open airways.. and plenty Renneis. NATS are statistically benefit junkies, so bicarbonate of soda is a bit cheaper.
It's going to take while, but McManus will win, enjoy the sufferance NATS!
It's likely going to show you all up as naive idiots.
Drunk Britnat at 4.17am.
DeleteDrunk Britnat at 4.17am.
DeleteAnon at 7.56. Stung a bit by truth and facts? You are trying to deny recorded events. Just like Trumpy boy and lots of unionists. Funny how its always your kind who shout fake news when it is your claims that are false. The wealth of evidence directly contradicting your lies should embarrass you but I suspect your stupidity saves you. Go away and educate your self you cretin. The sooner James starts moderating outright liars like you the better.
Delete9.23 am there was no scheme as you claimed.
DeleteDefinition of a scheme “ A scheme is a large - scale, systematic plan or arrangement for doing or organising something.”
Listen up plonker if you don’t know the meaning of the words you post then don’t use them. It’s reasonable to assume people know what their words mean so you are a liar unless you want to say you don’t know the meaning and confirm you are an idiot.
The rest of your post at 9.23am is a silly rant.
If you insist, reverend.
DeleteAnon at 1.03pm that’s more like it. Keep your comments to the minimum and just use small words wherever possible. Nice of you to revere me but it really wasn’t necessary.
DeleteDefinition of reverend: “ The word reverend means worthy of great respect. “
Or did you not know what this word meant either ?
Since when was Campbell worthy of respect ?
DeleteDouglas Alexander... fnarr fnarr fnoop fnoop
ReplyDeleteIs he still Head Prefect?
DeleteDouglas Alexander is a big pal of John Swinney can he not get his pal to get us indyref2.
ReplyDeleteWee Dougie has no friends, not even wee John. The school sneak is always unpopular.
Delete“Indyref2”
DeleteLOL.
You had your referendum in 2014.
Get over it and move on for pity’s sake!
Dougie Alexander dad was best pals of Donald Dewar -how do you think his sister got involved in politics .. and went to the same church as ex Tory minister Goldie. Pretty sure John Swinney ain’t pals.
DeleteWhy don’t the English realise their days of empire are long gone.
ReplyDelete9.06pm that is question for KC to answer.
DeleteOh dear!
ReplyDeleteIt’s now two and a half days since I first asked the question, and still nobody’s came up with a single “benefit of Indy” !!!
Not a good look chaps!
you get the full tax take straight away
Deleteno one takes all your money and hands you back cents on the dollar
that's pretty good for starters; even a halfwit would be able to improve his life if given more resources
KC nobody can be bothered to answer you because you are an arsehole!
DeleteStick yer independence (and yer English hating bile) where the sun disnae shine ya dipsticks!
DeleteSome people hate the English, I don’t. They’re just wankers! We, on the other hand, are colonised by wankers! Can’t even find a decent culture to be colonised by! We’re ruled by effete assholes! It’s a shite state of affairs.
ReplyDeleteSome Scottish culture for KC.
Oh dear!
DeleteI rest my case!
Rule Britannia
God save the King.
you never made a case to begin with
Deletethe british empire is over
its only future lies with becoming a second province, a new political union, on a one man one vote basis, with pakistan
inshallah
People like anon@10:18pm are an embarrassment to Scotland.
DeleteKC, God disnae exist so how can he save the unelected head os state?
DeleteJames, Bali boy here,. I see my last comments were not to your liking, so you did in fact moderate them.
ReplyDelete"I might actually still leave it off for a little while longer, because as expected it's vastly boosted the number of comments, which in turn indirectly boosts the audience for the blog. But I expect I'll sooner or later reach the saturation point I always reach where the downsides start to clearly outweigh the advantages."
In fact you may not reach saturation point. If you go back and think about how your blog did in the past you were on the up! But you blew it by being a twat. It is pretty clear you are a "bit on the spectrum" with no filter, even your friends advised you to be a bit more careful.. but you ignored them! Now you need to be a big boy and face up to it!
Yes there is little chance you are going to even break even..!
We disagree in terms of view, but that does not mean that we want to shut down your argument, rather as a strong supporter of Jews, abhor antisemitism, a born in Scotland person, not someone like you that flits about with your dual nationality, a traditional conservative Scot.. I can say this..
I do think you are a grifter, you change with the wind! And I do think you see value in favouring the antisemitic. But the wind is changing! I suspect you will pivot your online views in due course.
You are a chancer son, you should have stuck to the stats, your forte. If you actually start to be a force online, your ethics and finances are going to come under a lot of scrutiny!
12.55 Are you on drugs or having a heart attack?
Delete12.55 You need to stop licking oot yer plug sockets Scotland has an abundance of electricity!
DeleteA conservative Scot? As rare as Bigfoot these days.
DeleteMake no mistake. Paul McManus is not messing about. I know of Paul, from the old days at Cloburn Quarry, he worked all day and part of the night. He has become wealthy out pure hard graft!
ReplyDeleteHe is not a man that makes wanton threats!
The upcoming court case is going to happen!
Paul, although a labour man, also has a moral compass. It would be reasonable to assume that Moira Salmond just wants Alec's name cleared, thus passed the rights to Paul, as he is one of the few people, with enough resources, that can take on the corrupt SNP, who use our public money (the tax we pay) to defend their gravy train.
I do think that when Paul wins he will see Moira ok financially, in her later years. He is that kind of guy. When loyal staff got sick in the quarry Paul and the original founder, Bob Durward, looked after the loyal workers, he will look after Moira.
In the round, while painful it will help clean the stables, then we can maybe talk about independence without the stain the SNP have brought to the table.
1.58 A Labour man has a moral compass? Oh dear!
DeleteSo did that other Labour man Gordon Brown and he was happy to support the killing of hundreds of thousands in Labour’s illegal war in Iraq.
DeletePaul the millionaire socialist!
DeleteA dialogue about independence without the SNP.? Where will the venue be for that? A marquee?
DeleteAnon at 1.58: You don't know Paul McManus from Adam. We established that months ago.
Delete"Some people hate the English, I don’t. They’re just wankers! "
ReplyDeleteWell if you think the English are bad, take a trip up to the north side of Glasgow, or maybe the town centre and have a look at the crime rate, the exponential growth in rapes and sexual harassment of young women.
Take a run down to the infirmary, look at the demographic, wonder where your taxes are going, are you happy with that? Now you may be on benefit? now wonder if you are getting your fair share?
It's happening all over, Cumbernauld included. If you want Scotland for the Scots, then you should be much more worried about us getting out bread "to coin a phrase!
Glasgow is designated a sanctuary city.. but ask yourself is there a limit or are the SNP just importing voters? And then ask, do these voters fare Buddhists doctrine, maybe they are Mormons fleeing from Donald trump?
2.27 Spoken like a true son of William of Orange, ya mug!
DeleteIt was a quote from the film Trainspotting. Spoken by Ewen McGregor’s character. It’s not the anons personal view. It’s part of Scottish culture but you didn’t know that. Or did you and you just wanted an excuse to rant about Glasgow.
DeleteAnon 8.09 , the poster at 2.27 probably has never read Trainspotting - too many course Scottish words for him /her.
DeleteJames, when you get out of your scratcher sometime tomorrow .. how many of these posts are you going to quietly delete?
ReplyDelete2.49 Probably none because it shows up the unionist cabal for what they are, hateful, spineless, anti Scottish racist scumbags! Bring it on ya mugs!
Delete4:22am is a very sad individual with little between his lugs.
DeletePeople like that are an embarrassment to Scotland.
The black -clad racists are an embarrassment to Scotland.
Delete"how many of these posts are you going to quietly delete?"
DeleteIs there a noisy way of deleting your far-right comments? Happy to do that if you prefer!
1.20 Maybe you need to go back to Gaza and shoot some more innocent Palestinians to calm yersel doon?
ReplyDeleteSeems to me that where a modest, positive difference could be made is to encourage and feed the struggle within the SNP for a proindependence strategy that helps our people to understand that independence cannot be achieved with the consent of our economic exploiters at Westminster.
ReplyDeleteJudging from the 'quality'of much of the above some moderation of comments looks necessary and essential. Thanks for persevering James.
It’s not just vampires that come out in the middle of the night. Yoon goons show their true colours.
ReplyDeleteAs do Nat numpties!
DeleteHi Ifsy.
Delete9.13am They see him here, they see him there, those numpties see him everywhere. Is he in Baurheid ? - Is he in Bath? - Is he in London? Is he in Cumbernauld? Is he underneath their beds. Naw, he is laughing at them.
DeleteAre you sure its no his reflection in a puddle of piddle?
DeleteIFS is too busy hanging around WGD
DeleteA couple of anonymous numpties at 11.44am and 1.12pm. Not looked at the nicophant site for a very long time but I bet the big dug is still making a good living out of missing the very in your face and obvious criminality going on in the Murrell household. I’m confident Murrell didn’t pass on one of the hairdryers to Mr Kavangh for keeping silent about their wrongdoing.
DeleteNicola cannae recall anything and he cannae see anything but I bet he has said we should all just move on.
ReplyDeleteYou are nothing but a very verbose waste of space, pal.
Anyone who gives credence to human dross like Campbell who still supports the genocide denying fascistic racist heap of Zionist shite called Israel and who also cozies up to the MAGA-Lite shite of Reform and their obnoxious racist drivel, belongs in the same rancid sewer as Wings.
They are complete anathema to our Yes Movement and should be treated as the bucket of cold vomit they really are.
Diminishing? Not as diminishing as the mugs.who fund Campbell.
ReplyDeleteAs Farage continues to pull down Reform (now predicted to collapse to third place by UK pollsters with a WM Seat count now gutted to only 120-130) and with Trump about to have all his remaining teeth kicked out in just over 2 months time, if is very satisfying to watch the racist right wing unionist trash on social media getting apoplectic as they watch their heroes get flushed down their respective toilets.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder the Wingnuts are on here, thrashing around like a bunch of demented diddies.
Their warped world is rapidly disintegrating in real time and the poor wee things simply cannot cope.
