Let's wait and see if the full legal advice is published.


@andywightman
But what the DFM is promising to do is to release the "key legal advice" It is not for the Scottish Government to determine what is key legal advice. Keep that Motion of No Confidence on the table."

Legal advice has been leaked in advance of tomorrow, albeit heavily redacted...

I was going to do this but lacked the skills rofl

The words I'd chosen were it was Salmonds fault. Sturgeon is innocent.

Another disgusting SNP failure comes to light, the nationalist party is unconcerned with providing basic standards
for the people it claims to represent, instead it leaves them to die on the streets, whilst throwing huge amounts
of money at flags and multitudes of other BS.

SNP....excelling at Failure in every aspect of governance.

The statistics speak for themselves.

The worst homeless death rate in Britain, thats the worst homeless death rate in Britain....

Swindley caves to the pressure. It's a shameful reflection of this administration that the parliament have had to employ the threat of a VoNC several times to make progress. It remains to be seen what is actually released... how can the inquiry tell if they have ALL the documents?!

Article said:
JOHN Swinney has caved to pressure and agreed to release crucial legal documents after his job was put on the line by opposition MSPs.

The Scottish Conservatives had tabled a motion of no confidence in the Deputy First Minister if he continued to refuse to publish the key documents repeatedly requested by MSPs investigating the Scottish Government's botched handling of complaints against Alex Salmond.

Looks like the leaks have started.

Can only have come from Salmond or Sturgeon. These hearings are behind closed doors.

Aberdein's evidence won't be used in any form.

Hard to believe you're not deliberately misinterpreting things given you're supposed to have been following this story.

Huh, isn't this crucial to the point of the degree to which sturgeon broke code?

Have I misinterpreted this?

I thought we were roughly agreed, harassment inquiry is likely going salmonds way.

My bad, I missed the part about 'today' and thought you'd interpreted January's communication as going forwards.

Apologies.

Still, the Aberdein evidence being un-legally sharable despite not identifying accusers (at least insofar as corroborating timelines ) is nothing new. Hopefully getting it via salmonds lawyers will make a difference. What a joke this is.

Is there any other role he could have a crack at, just to completely ruin the country? Leader, then Finance gimp, and now Education Overfker, I'm sure there must be something needing a kicking. I know Asda Jeannie's had a good run, maybe Swinney should give Health a go next just to properly put it in the ground.
