I agree with you that there is a strong influence towards Independence on this site and I am pleased about that. westminster isn't doing Scotland any favours Rob, surely you see that. Going back to your comment, I admit that I am concerned about the allegations. They are being investigated and it will all come out in the wash. But will Salmond receive a "fair trial" now that the msm has got hold of it? Hate speech you tosser, as to a "fair trial", can anyone who's case has been plastered all over the front pages expect one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Cort's Hamstring Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 The former head of the Scottish Government, and one of the most high profile 21st century UK politicians has been accused of sexual assault. I think the BBC can be forgiven for treating it as major news. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lambies Doos Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 If you say so.Thank you for proving my point. I expect it to be there for a few more days. You do know that Van Rompuy is the ex Belgium PM and that page was updated 24mins ago. Yet Eck still front and centre of new page too, where he will no doubt remain for the foreseeable. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't see forty newspaper articles about that mind, or lead news on BBC. I wonder why. TBF I appreciate there is anti SNP bias in the press, but Alex Salmond is the one of the most prominent Scottish politicians in history. This was clearly going to be a massive story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was clearly going to be a massive story. His political career is pretty much washed up now anyway, if these allegations are proven, and that he has clearly lied, it’s the final nail without question. The papers will squeeze every column inch out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 This story is just as scandalous as the allegations: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/83745a2a-a891-11e8-b7c2-058fb57c563b 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
