Everything Is Awesome

Posted on June 03, 2026 by

You’ve had a few pretty gruelling pieces to get through in the last week or so, readers, so here’s something a little more light-hearted.

It’s from an episode of Broadcasting Scotland on 27 November 2020, a month after we confirmed our big story about the SNP accounts and the missing fundraiser money. In it, snug-toed SNP MP Pete Wishart opines that there really is nothing to worry about, and we should all just put our trust in the party.

We’ll leave you to judge whose opinion stood the test of time.

    There’s no saving that party.
    I briefly tuned into BS as the holyrood election results came in. They were hosting Linda Fabiani.
    The reek of self-entitlement was overwhelming. She sat and scoffed that Fergus Ewing had prevented one of their gravy candidates from being elected. The whole thing needs dismantled.

    My dark money to the Conservatives never paid off. I wish I had light money like the SNP. Far more transparent and everyone can see where it’s gone. All laid out in Murrell’s case.

    Behold, the utter melt that is weak pishart.

    Another useful idiot in the Sturgeon/Murrell gang of thieves, pickpockets and street urchins.

    What will happen if he turns “Crown Witness” under Scottish law in order to obtain a lower sentence. Who would he have to give evidence against?

    Crown Witness testimony in Scotland is known as turning Kings Evidence in England.
