Witchhunt in Westminster



In one of his regular columns for The Times newspaper, David Aaronovitch set out in forensic detail the shameless behaviour of Tom Watson MP who has tried his best to make political capital out of wild allegations of child abuse. 

 As I said on the blog site the other day, Watson now claims that he was doing his job in reporting these allegations to the police and prosecuting authorities, but that conveniently fails to explain his reckless public statements such as the one made under privilege in the House of Commons where the Labour MP suggested the existence of a: “powerful paedophile network linked to parliament and No 10”.

 I haven't seen the BBC Panorama programme which seems to have exposed the  'Westminster paedo' allegations as malicious lies, but as David Aaronovitch explains just before this went on air the Met Police confirmed their inquiries had ceased for the want of credible evidence.

 So it seems that having made a name for himself by attacking phone hacking, shoddy journalism and biased reporting at the now defunct News of the World, Tom Watson has sunk to the same appalling standards with his politically motivated 'Westminster paedo' campaign.

SNP - Conspiracy of Silence

Image
So here's the issue - two Glasgow MSPs (Nicola Sturgeon and Humza Yousaf) have been asked a reasonable question about their use of public money to employ two SNP councillors who already have full-time, salaried jobs as senior elected members of Glasgow City Council.   But these two public servants (both long-serving ministers) refuse to answer, so what to do next? One regular reader suggests raising the matter on the floor of the Scottish Parliament which is a good idea, but requires an MSP who's prepared to put down a written question for Scottish Ministers to answer. So here's a list of activities which will help shine a light on what has been going on because as Lord Nolan once said apropos driving up standards in public life - 'daylight is the best disinfectant'. Write to the leader of Glasgow City Council Write to the Chief Executive of Glasgow City Council Write to all elected members in Glasgow City Council Write to the party leaders in Glasgow City Council W
