Golden Charter are charlatans - missold a "family trust" to my mother with dementia and (thankfully, in this case) failed to complete the paperwork correctly (as it allowed us to unwind it and be re-imbursed).
So, Blackford graduated from the same school of business ethics as his compatriots Tasmina and Michelle Thomson it would seem.
Were you previously aware of his chairmanship of said organisation, and if not would you now consider taking the news of your experience to a suitable media outlet, or perhaps to your future MP to raise in the House (assuming they are not of the yellow-and-black variety and b

No I wasn't. It might interest them that they sell 'family trusts' as a means of avoiding inheritance tax. A means that, as far as I'm aware, would not help (in my mother's case).
Between the Charles Kennedy incidents, his 'humble crofter' line and hypocrisy over the profits of weapons of war, your information just adds to the evidence that Blackford is a ct.simoid said:

I was working in London for a few days this week and a few colleagues were asking about this. Their opinion was that the Scots should get another independence referendum because we voted to remain part of the UK within Europe and that's about to change.
Hard to argue with them.
Not really difficult.Hard to argue with them.
That was a known risk when we voted in our once in a lifetime referendum. Just like oil revenues collapsing, Salmond turning out to be a bare faced liar, Trump getting in and taxing hell out of Whisky, etc. We took the risk that we wouldn’t agree with everything that happened whether we were in or out of UK.

Its a pity they haven't evened it up for fairness and included 50 SNP failures, complete lies, cover ups, ironies,
discrepancies, and party members who have been done and are in the process of being done for crimes including
some of a very serious nature, the plethora of examples would be so fecking huge they would be spoilt for choice.
As a side note have you noticed how the resident nats only come back with single or two word answers,
it speaks volumes though.
The SNP’s David Linden MP being “very very clear” about their future economic policies.

That's comedy gold - he's not really an MP though is he? Not just a junior researcher of some kind?https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CGY6yZEIjfk
