Mysterion Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 It will be very interesting to hear what the charges are and how strong the evidence is. I suspect he'll not be found guilty but this will hang over him for the rest of his days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well she was struck off from being a practicing solicitor so there were significant concerns about her character/standing. Always found it funny how we make assumptions and treat people with certain political views. On the one hand if a Tory had purchased property below market value or exhibited some form of predatory behaviour then we'd be outraged but not surprised. As it was allegedly by an SNP representative it's been quite scandalous to see someone caught up in it who is supposed to be on the side/fighting for those who'd fall victim to panic selling. The media do love to slaughter those who say one thing but do another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's far easier to slate the source of a statement rather than attempting to counter the statement itself, especially when that source has presented inconvenient things ideologues don't want to deal with. The need to feed one's confirmation bias is strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagar the Horrible Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 For a high profile person, and it being released formally as a statement to the press, then the Police will have been in contact with COPFS, so there must be enough to at least take it to court, because this can come back to bite. But This case will bite the SNP hard and cause in-fighting. But the SNP don't get democracy. Still could be for contempt, that snippet was in the twitter feed. Still they could all join the Lib-Dems if they need to vacate public life......Oh politics, this will keep Brexit and trump off the covers for a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
