Nicola has a tough job but she has a few numpties along side her Alex and now Deekie

Thanks for clearing that up for us.

As if by magic the story comes out on budget day!

Don’t worry, Kate can handle it.

What the hell is a ‘Deep In’?

Or a Gaelic Medium?

Gaelic Medium

She sees dead people but only Scottish ones.

Typo for deep end I presume.
And school teaching with Gaelic as the main language.

I appreciate sending messages on Facebook and Instagram seems like magic to some.

Yeah I totally see your point, never mind the fact he was sending predatory messages to the child/teenager in question up to a few days ago so the story has just came out, I’d much rather the reporting on his actions was held back so it wouldn’t taint the SNP budget speech.

Astoundingly niaeve behaviour.

Wonder what’ll happen with wee Eck?

More than a few allegations against him too.

#edit I see he’s due back in court in March..

Hopefully they will be looking at all his It equipment I presume this is not the first time.

I’m not a great fan of going after people’s private lives, no-one is perfect and especially people who have the drive and desire to go into politics but WTAF?  At a minimum it is 2020 and to get to that level you should have a slight idea awareness of social media never mind what is appropriate behaviour.

Good luck Scotland 🙁

Kate Forbes is a creationist, which to me should bar her from office. We desperately need politicians that listen to scientists, and she fails that test in my opinion.

They’re desperate to find a role for her as she was my MEP.

I am generally an SNP voter for what it is worth – but being a creationist makes you an extremist in my book.

Bet he wishes he was a royal, he’d get to just roll on….

Without trying to derail the thread, I’m failing to see the fine line you are drawing between “creationist” and “religious”.

Difference being in this case it doesn’t look like he’s done anything legally wrong.

Just for those who missed it

Police Scotland said it had not received any complaint of criminality

There has been no suggestion in the Scottish Sun’s story that Derek Mackay communicated with the boy when he was under the age of 16.

Buried at the end of course.

Yep, reeks of a set up.

What’s alleged is not criminal, but it’s bloody dodgy.

Sounds like a case of delusions of grandeur. Who the hell did he think he was? A Royal or a BBC personality?

If it’s all true then he deserves to be hung, drawn, and quartered, then diced up and fed to the dogs.

In his position as maybe the next leader it’s a wee bit close to the bone no pun intended, texting a 16yo boy saying he’s cute etc and he’s not denying it, hardly befits someone of his position and leaving himself open to blackmail etc

I’m not sure about this “next leader” thing. There are a couple of other candidates I’d have put ahead of him easily.

Personally, I’m going with Joanna Cherry  🙂

One bonus. The budget was apparently delivered first in Gaelic, and then in English.

He invited me for a drink once. I declined as I thought he was an utter bellend.

As for Alex Salmond, he’s off to Barlinnie after his trial…guilty as ****…

Wonder if he’ll get to share a cell with Prince Andrew?
