Mastermind Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 There seems to be a little doubt as to whether today’s Scottish Budget will now go ahead in light of the allegations around Derek Mackay’s texts to a boy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just read that, what a creepy fucker. He'll be given the bullet very soon. What is is about people in the public eye who imagine that these things will never see the light of day or nobody will notice stuff you do on the internet? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gannonball Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Its probably good he's been caught now, if he's messaging folk that young I would imagine he would only get worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect Device Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Interesting how the SNP deal with this. Not sure he has done anything illegal but it looks creepy as f**k a 42 year old bombarding a 16 year old with texts. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is he’ll be one of the few ‘resignations’ from the Administration. Nothing illegal has happened, nothing to see here. Move along please. Sweep sweep. Back to your old office so soon Mr Swinney? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) Seems he's resigned. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-51397956 Edited February 6, 2020 by RiG 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 This is creeoy and even worse coming from a man in a position of authority. Only a few months separates this from grooming. If he has resigned then good. However I think this does merit investigation from the police as the behaviour shown here is worrying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Not in the least bit surprised by these allegations. Always thought Mackay was OFTW.With him this month and Salmond’s trail next month, things aren’t looking great at SNP towers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Fucking hell. Kate Forbes will deliver the budget but I doubt the finer points of fiscal policy will be getting much attention. While it’s not illegal, it’s creepy enough that he could be looking at suspension/sitting as an independent rather than disappearing to the backbenches like Hosie; this is a different magnitude from that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can take Alex out the SNP but his legacy lives on.Wholesale changes of culture needed at that party. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
