Iain, cannot disagree with any of that, a fine piece. Its all largely been downhill since 2015, and would have been a different story I believe with competent economic nanagement if Alex and his team had remained in position after indy ref 01. Not sure why I'm giving it a number, as there will never be another in our lifetime. Will be interesting to see if the beeb comes down on any side in their 2 parter from tomorrow after all their Alex bashing in the last 5 years

Thanks. That story is far from over. Salmond will not rest in his campaign to hold to account the SNP cabal that tried to get him locked up.

Nicola Sturgeon may have been the most effective elected politician to advance the Unionist cause in the past decade but the most effective unelected Unionist politician of the past decade must be David Harvey who knew, if not where the bodies were buried, but in which old and long forgotten files he could find the documented and corroborated lies of Nicola Sturgeon and Leslie Evans.

The forthcoming Civil Case against the Scottish Government which is about to be continued by Alex Salmond’s executors will be our last chance for a long time to put some of the key protagonists / witnesses on oath in the Outer House of the Court of Session and face criminal charges of perjury if they continue to deny actions that can be corroborated as being true and which were not followed up by the Holyrood enquiry.

It is unlikely that the Sir Ernest Saunders defence of Early On-set Alzheimers’s in the Scottish Distillers / Guinness trial will work this time. He said that he could not recall the actions which he was libelled to have made. ( Sir Ernest Saunders recovered from Alzheimer’s a few years later, the only person in medical history so to do.)
