Boris Bananaman

I sent an email to Boris Johnson during the referendum campaign over his comments about the EU restricting people from buying banana in bunches of more than 'two or three' at a time.

Not as damaging as other ludicrous claims to do with a pain-free Brexit or a huge cash boost for the NHS, but two weeks on I'm still waiting on  a reply.

 No wonder people get fed up with politics and politicians.

Dear Boris

Banana Comments and the European Union

As one of the key figures in the Leave Campaign to take the UK out of the European Union, I would be grateful if you could clarify your thoughts on bananas before polling day on 23 June 2016.

I have say that I was completely taken aback by your comments about being unable to buy bananas in "bunches of more than two or three" which is a perfectly ridiculous statement for an informed and educated person to make.

Never mind an honourable Member of Parliament and someone who is spoken of as a future leader of the Conservative Party, potentially at least.

I look forward to your reply.

Kind regards


Mark Irvine

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
