Grandiose Claims vs Clean Streets

The SNP can't keep Glasgow's streets clean or the roads free of potholes, but Nicola Sturgeon is off to America to bang the drum for Indy and explain how Scotland can become a world leader in global affairs. 


Grandiose Claims vs Clean Streets (April 29, 2022)

More grandiose claims from Scottish Ministers about Scotland becoming a world beater under their leadership.

Meanwhile they can't even organise a census, fix the potholes or keep the streets clean. 



Just Fix The Potholes! (April 07, 2022)

I don't drive much these days, but no one can deny the state of Glasgow's roads is truly terrible.

As Iain Green's cartoon says, can the SNP just 'put a sock in it' and focus instead on bread and butter issues like fixing Glasgow's potholes and cleaning up the city?

Because I'm pretty sure the poor state of Glasgow's roads and public spaces is not down to Maggie Thatcher or some dastardly plot at Westminster.

What a complete hoot - these hypocrites have no shame! Peter Murrell  @PeterMurrell "Anonymous political donations supposed to be a thing of the past. Yet Scottish Tories pocketed £319,000 from secretive trust with no fixed address or known current trustees. @Conservatives legally responsible for checking true identity of donors before accepting cash. #DarkMoney "

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'.
