    Ken 500. Assange is ego merchant like some of you so called Scottish Nationalists. He would probably be free by now if he had obeyed the law and turned up at court. He thinks he is some biblical figure giving deliverance to the masses and issuing bread and fish.

    Speaking with @NicolaSturgeon about the delay to Brexit. The First Minister has written to the PM calling for the time to be “used constructively and not wasted”
    I also asked the First Minister about what this delay will mean for her #indyref2 plans and her response to some members urging her to use the Brexit delay to push for another independence referendum

    No deal bluff has been thoroughly called. Tory brexiters cannot now use it to force through the brexit deal negotiated by the Prime Minister.

    We have waited too long on this. Corruption by leave campaigns, concealment by former Home Secretary May having been advised of this by MI5, footdragging by the Met. This needs to be the straw that breaks the camels back. But because it would destroy Brexit, nothing.

    Re Leith by election and dark money Davidson

    Inundated with anti-SNP/anti Indy guff from “Ruth Davidson’s Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party”, including a personally addressed letter in the post. How much is this propaganda bombardment costing and who’s paying for it?

    Who is this Ruth Davidson? I seem to vaguely recall somebody of that name who had her own political party for a while, but in the end that didn’t add up to much, did it? =grin=
