Ludo*1 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 The worry was never what Salmond would or could supply today, because he's got nothing on key figures, it's the way the media will now frame and hound Sturgeon without batting an eye at what's going on down South. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Think some people need to understand Sturgeon could potentially be implicated in wrong doing without Salmond accusing her directly of being involved in a cover up/conspiracy. He's making a wider point than people like to frame it. There will be no credible pursuit of that without him leading these loons in that direction (very forcibly on today's evidence). She will deal with this standard of questioning in her sleep. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 The very notion of Murdo and ACH trying to trip up NS is fucking risible. I might even watch some of it next week 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did say "the worry" so I'd presume that would relate to something you agreed was a worry. Posts like this annoy me because SNP have clearly been sloppy here and so are Westminster at times, why not condemn them both equally rather than holding the SG to less account because you feel journalists go easy on Westminster?

S7C Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Haven't been watching. Has a single piece of evidence actually been provided yet? The media frenzy makes it seem that way, but I can't come across anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media frenzy makes it seem that way, but I can't come across anything.He appears to have very little if anything beyond it being his version of events. He has resorted a couple of times now when asked more telling questions to the old "I'm not saying for a minute this is the case..." then recounting what he thinks that "case" was anyway. A sure sign he has very little to back up his stance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between 'my' and 'the' is surely substantial enough to not dive in head first. Proclamations that this is the end of Sturgeon, the SNP and independence are wide of the mark. Perhaps, if actual evidence comes to light then Leslie Evans might be needing to be punted, but that's just conjecture based on Salmond's excellent oratory skills rather than any new evidence he's provided. Can we agree that journalists are letting blatant law breaking slide south of the border though? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 He sought mediation before going to court as he realised how "cataclysmic " it would have been for the current Scottish government. Aye right that's why you sought mediation Eck !!!And as he's asked a tasty question....he has a chest infection and needs to stop !As someone suggested earlier I'd get him tested for C19 ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Nope. None whatsoever.Explosive according to Sky [emoji1]He basically explained what would constitute a breach of the ministerial code and the Sky reporter is interpreting that as having provided evidence of a breach ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we agree that journalists are letting blatant law breaking slide south of the border though? Well who's worry is it meant to be then? Generally if someone says "the worry is" then goes on to describe said worry you would presume they agreed with such concerns. They would be wide off the mark, I've personally not said such things. Of course we could agree that some journalists are doing so. It's of little relevance to the integrity of the SG actions here though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
