Government By Gang

Scottish Ministers are deliberately withholding information - because they were quick to release unofficial 'estimated' data on Monday when it suited their purpose having previously insisted that no such data would be released.

What odd behaviour, especially as Scottish Ministers have some 55 spin doctors on the public payroll - yet the SNP seem to prefer government by a close-knit 'wee gang'.
