Unless you have actual evidence, this is a pathetic and stupid claim.

I think that the broad support we've seen from all sections of Twitter is a representative sample of the population.


Yeah, because Twitter is totally a trust-worthy source of information for polling :roll:

How many people from Yorkshire supported this? 5 and a dog?

I think that given how much of an issue it has turned out to be it deserves a thread of its own.


IF there is no evidence why do you continue to post this nonsense?

The Yorkshire Party has been running since 2014. It has slightly more legitimacy than the NIP.
I highly doubt NIP will be seen as anything more than a nuisance party in Yorkshire.

Yorkshire Party - 4k followers in 6 years
Northern Independence Party - 13k followers in 1 month

I would think the same thing, and I did, until I saw the widespread support on places like football Twitter.

There was plenty of opposition to Labour on Twitter. All the opposition I've found on Twitter to this is coming from accounts with UK flags in their names, and I'm not talking about Brexity types, I'm talking about the full-on Oswald Mosley profile picture types.

I'm not the one using them as synonyms. It's the Northern Independence Party using them as synonyms. And they've been widely accepted as synonyms by everyone interacting with the movement.

I've already told you that the reason that referendum failed was because it was seen as a white elephant with not enough power. This is exactly the opposite. Independence is the power of a sovereign country, not the glorified county council we were offered back when people wanted to give the Blair government a bloody nose.

Push for a different form of devolution then, simple. I.e like what NI, Wales and Scotland have.

And then you know, actually get into power in said devolved government and show people who effective you would be.
