Costanza Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 5 hours ago, Ulysses said: James Hamilton was our Director of Public Prosecutions for 12 years, a role which required him to be very effective at steering clear of politics. The role was created specifically to ensure that prosecutions would be independent of the political system. However, if he has any political leanings, they won't be towards any political party in Scotland, that's for sure. Of course he was appointed as an independent investigator by the First Minister of the day, and re-appointed by another FM. Who else would have had the authority to appoint him? Well quite. His independence from the political system however is defined by him giving the right result or not it would appear though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graygo Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 11 hours ago, No Idle Talk said: Even if she had went and sat in front of that committee and said "I lied and I don't care what you think about that", there would still be huge swathes of people in this country who would shrug their shoulders and vote for her in May. All because she is promising them a second independence referendum. It's sad really. I voted Yes in 2014 but if she gets her way I am really not sure how I will vote the next time. Even if she had went and sat in front of that committee and the committee said "We know you are innocent but we really need to discredit you before the election so we're going to try to pin this on you", there would still be huge swathes of people in this country who would shrug their shoulders and still not vote for her in May. All because she is promising them a second independence referendum. It's sad really. There is only 1 reason people fear referendums, they think they will be on the losing side.

Vote for another party that is pro Independence is probably the answer to your question. The UK Prime Minister was proven to have lied in the Highest Court in England and yet that goes apparently as nothing to see here move on. Closely followed by the outrage that they have spent £37 billion on PPE contracts mostly lining their pals pockets and yet you seem to think that it is ok for Ruth Davidson and Douglas Ross to decry Nicola Sturgeon for something that she has been found NOT GUILTY of doing. One thing you can never accuse her of is not trying her best for the people of Scotland. Can you honestly say that Boris and his pals have the same attitude. They couldn't give a monkies about us up here which has already been shown by the contemp they have shown our Fishing and Farming Industry. Now if we don't get Independence they are trying their hardest to reduce any existing limited powers the Scottish Government currently has so they have total control of how our Country is run. You might want that but I certainly don't and as per 24 of the last 30 polls in Scotland do the majority of Scots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll have suffered a little, she'll have to walk a line going forward when calling out opposition politicians on integrity but i think the credibility of Davidson/Ross will suffer as she hammers home that their motivations were not to support the women who complained. The PR own goal of the Tories to focus solely on Sturgeon was a mistake, they overlooked the women time and time again. Their behaviour will be a turn off for more people than questions over whether or not Sturgeon screwed up over a meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
