    Brilliant! I don’t see how Police Scotland can possibly refuse to investigate.
    Good work, Stu ?

    Succinct, and elegantly addresses the question of why the Police Scotland failed in their statutory duties to fully investigate what is clearly a criminal matter.

    No-one, and particularly politicians, should be above the law.

    One can hope that one of the eventual outcomes of this ongoing scandal results in a separation of the judiciary from the Scottish Parliament.

    Persist in your sterling efforts.
