Check it oot! Another win for non stick Nic and the YesNP!!! Nothing to do with the (hawk, spit) English and Westmonster!
US suspends tariffs on single malt Scotch whisky
Tariffs on UK cheese and cashmere will also be lifted as the countries try to resolve an old trade row.www.bbc.co.uk
And obviously absolutely nothing to do with not being in the EU anymore so not needing to be punished along with the others.
Same. If I were stranded on a desert island with Wee Nippy & Susan Boyle, I'd be forced to try start a family with Susan.

I’m surprised they are letting us off as we were in the EU when the rules were breached. Possibly a gap in the legislation that didn’t cover member states leaving and some smart solicitor discovered it, we could do with him/her here.
No doubt the EU debit remains the same and it will be covered by others.

I hate it when your finger goes through the paper. Other than that the first day at the old people's home wasn't too bad.

The Lord Advocate shows the 'punishable' Scottish parliament where power really lies | The Spectator
The Alex Salmond inquiry is about far more than his allegations against Nicola Sturgeon and her government: it offers alarming insights into the extent and scope of political power in Scotland. In particular, the way in which the Crown Office, Scotland’s government prosecutors, pressured the...

Yes I know that the tram saga was an Edinburgh Council cluster.. and that it was labour controlled at the time...
However the point I was making was that the devolution process was so flawed that it spread out across the entire Scottish public society.. (which includes council bodies of whatever hue..) and has underpinned a swath of feckwittery unparalleled in recent history. Instead of a culture of fiscal probity, professional competence and proven performance we have crackpot theory, nursery level politics and an ability to waste resources that is truly eyewatering.
The political colouring of the individuals involved are of little consequence in reality. The current SNP is a badly thought out bandwaggon which has picked up momentum because of the conditions that have allowed it to exist. What we have done is connected a source of power to a grouping that should never have come into existence!
It is like someone handed Extinction Rebellion the keys to the treasury, the home office and the nuclear deterrent! It is that stupid!
The Trams happened because Edinburgh Council was allowed to bypass a shedload of checks and balances that would have come from the Scottish Office (when that was run by grownups!). Holyrood should have stopped it, but they were far too interested in their own shagfest at the other end of the Royal Mile...!
