I came here to say that.... Along with: "bloody hell, who'd have ever thunk it (/s)" Might be a bit late, but shouldn't they have done a runner and done a bit of wild camping on the wildlands of the west coast, in their "luxury campervan (sic)". Oh wait, that was impounded wasn't it, presumably because it might have been the proceeds of embezzlement. Anybody else feel that that cause of Scottish Independence may not be quite what it was ?

I don't want to see Scotland leave the UK but would certainly respect the result of any future referendum..... Could this be good news for the Alba Party ?

Discussion tonight on Newsnight on SNP and its electoral chances with a couple of journalists. End with oen saying Hamza needed to have less woolly policies ... unfortunately the subtitles translated this as less Willie policies ... had to laugh at the appropriateness of this.

Former first minister Nicola Sturgeon has described allegations that her husband embezzled funds from the SNP as "incredibly difficult".
As if she didn't know what was going on

Almost as bad as being asked "what is a woman"?

Used motorhome for sale. 1 owner, hardly used. Could be used as a possible bus.
Interesting history.

All the media are reporting that another First Minister is about to resign.
If he goes where is the incentive for opposition parties to agree a replacement? Better to have an election where the SNP would bomb, and all the other parties would increase their share of the vote. What a great thing coalition government is.

Weeeelll... He's facing the no-confidence vote because he walked away from the coalition that'd been stable for three years... So the issue isn't coalition, it's a leader of a minority government who none of the other parties trust.

So the issue isn't coalition, it's a leader of a minority government who none of the other parties trust. He jumped before he was pushed (the Greens were going to dump him due to his change in Green policies). 3 years of stability? Is that the best you can expect from coalition government?
Anyway, look on the bright side. Yesterday Alex Salmond was all smiles thinking he had the SNP over a barrel. Today his lackey is doing the rounds telling everyone there is no need for resignations as Yousaf can do a deal with Alba.
