The UK Gov't or the Scottish Gov't? You'll not answer that.
Feck things are way out of control. Where's the CPS and Procurator Fiscal? They both think they're legitimate Mafioso outfits.
The Lord Advocate of Scotland couldn't confirm today that failure to comply with a search warrant was a criminal offence. Beat that!
It doesn't paint a rosey picture. Throw in Sunak tomorrow with the job interview. At least he's grounded

Sturgeon would take Scotland bankrupt for a statue in Princes Gardens. That's her level of vanity.
Scotland is bankrupt. Full stop

True Velvet
The centre I worked in (an old converted church in Mancland) was made a polling station for the local elections, plus 1 general & the referendum...we were even there for the British citizens from Venezuela for their election.........can honestly say nearly everyone I spoke to had a feeling of better the devil you know ...no confidence in any of the candidates.

In general I have no problem accepting that other people have different views on things, What gets me riled though, is when they bang on about how the ones THEY support are the ONLY ONES that can do all these things that are best for us/the country.
Take the upcoming Scottish election for example. Everything that has come through my door (apart from from the SNP) is ......... 'VOTE FOR US TO STOP THE SNP'.
Now, whether you support the SNP or not, the point is that these other parties not telling us what they are going to do for the country, all they bang on about is stopping the SNP. So even if you hate the SNP with a passion, how are you supposed to decide who to vote for as no-one is telling you what their policies are!

Very true ....there again even if they do lay out their policy promises, they very often don't keep to them
