SNP - No Notes, No Records , No Fault, No Blame
From the private lobbying meetings between Nicola Sturgeon and Alex Salmond, to the Rangers tax fraud fiasco, to the unrecorded dinner engagement with Sanjeev Gupta and Lex Greensill the hallmark of the SNP is always the same - no notes, no records, no fault, no blame.

An SNP minister’s unrecorded dinner with Lex Greensill and Sanjeev Gupta has sparked calls for an investigation into whether he broke the ministerial code.
Fergus Ewing, rural economy secretary in the Scottish government, dined with the banker, the steel billionaire and two of their senior colleagues at one of Glasgow’s top restaurants in 2017. A freedom of information request by the Sunday Mail has revealed that the minister had no officials with him, no notes were taken, and the government claims to have no emails, texts or phone records about the meeting.
