Fallout Continues



Some things just don't add up.

 Take, for example, Stewart Hosie's resignation letter to Nicola Sturgeon in which he cited health reasons for his decision to stand down as deputy leader the SNP.

 Now if that were the real reason for Mr Hosie deciding to fall on his sword, then you would think that the self-same logic ought to apply to his role as deputy leader of the SNP group of MPs at Westminster.

But according to this report in The Scotsman, Mr Hosie is in rude, good health as far as the Westminster bubble is concerned, even if he has to take things easier in other parts of the country.

Sturgeon: No need for Stewart Hosie to quit as Westminster deputy

FIRST Minister Nicola Sturgeon has insisted there is no need for an SNP MP at the centre of love triangle allegations to quit as deputy leader of the party’s Westminster group.

Ms Sturgeon praised Stuart Hosie for doing the “right thing in difficult circumstance” by standing down as deputy leader of the party nationally, but said there was no reason for him to leave the same post in London.

He is alleged to have had an affair with Westminster journalist Serena Cowdy, who was previously said to have been involved with Angus MacNeil, who represents Na h-Eileanan an Iar in the UK Parliament.

SNP - Conspiracy of Silence

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
