Weighty Debates and Presidential Podiums



Now it could be just a rumour, or maybe even Chinese whispers, but I hear tell that Donald Trump's podium had to be specially reinforced for the final presidential debate.

  

Trump's Girth Certificate (19/01/18)



Donald Trump is reportedly 6 feet 3 inches tall and according to his latest medical examination the president weighs in at 239 pounds - or 17 stones 1 pound.

But Twitter is not convinced that such a tall man is not a tad heavier, as his golfing photos seem to suggest and some wag is calling on Donald to produce his 'girth certificate'.

A reference to  Trump's ugly, racist 'birther' campaign in which he claimed President Barack Obama was not an American citizen and called on him to produce a birth certificate.

Now I don't normally comment on a person's weight or physical appearance, but Trump is a terrible bully who feels free to voice his opinion about others, often women, even though he is no 'oil painting' himself.

So if you ask me, Trump deserves all the mockery he gets.

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
