Looks nice Peter. Is it Aberdeen way you live?
Nationalist East Ayrshire.
Is East Ayrshire Nationalist? I is bought it was full of staunch ex mining villages
I might drive up to Ayr and take in Cumnock and Auchenlec next week
You anywhere near there PG?
It's not mate, it's full of Rangers fans and voted a resounding No in the 2014 referendum on whether to split up the Nation.
Auchinleck and Cumnock are two lovely wee proddy Unionist places. Flute bands, lodges, ABOD clubs and Somme Associations galore.
It was 47% yes in 2014 and likely to be above 50% by now. 😀
So they voted No, then? Glad we cleared that up.

Yes, but in 2015 East Ayrshire became fully Nationalist and have been giving the SNP landslide wins ever since.
ALL of its elected parliamentary representatives are SNP which wasn’t the case before 2015.
Amusingly, East Ayrshire converted fully to Nationalism within 3 weeks of my arrival in the constituency. 😀

A better barometer would be going by a result of 53% Unionist on a 84.5% referendum turnout with regards to the question of splitting the Union or not, than the election of councillors where SNP only got 38.5% of the vote on a 44% turnout on questions that aren't constitutional, such as emptying bins and street sweeping. In fact, at the last council elections in 2017 the E.A. SNP vote went down whereas the Tory vote went up.
East Ayrshire is
red,
white and
blue!
Starting to feel like Pete's personal fact checker these days!

Is there a sword sharpening service in your local area? With the amount of swordings you've dished out to Pete recently I think you need to find one.

When you use your measure of the full electorate, the East Ayrshire vote for the union falls below 50% in 2014. So less than 50% bothered to vote for the union in 2014 in EA and since then it has been a clean sweep for civic nationalism! 😀
I had a mate from Auchenlec. Ain’t heard off him in 11 year . Might knock his door.
Lots of folk from Cumnock etc came down in the 60s for the mines. Mostly staunch but some not so. They all got on fine even when the big game was on.
They all backed Scotland as well. No plastics amongst them.Always great crack with them
The house I moved in to in 07 , my three neighbours were Scottish. Two staunch and a Celtic mad one. Sadly only one is alive
I left a year ago.I pop in and see her and taken her some frozen square. Best neighbour Iv ever had
Walking up the nationalist stronghold village of Sorn this morning.

Brilliant picture. Does the dog not get off the lead?
