General Election 2015

Did any of the papers actually manage to get this out on their front pages this morning?

Front page of the Telegraph down here. Mail has 'The Most Dangerous Woman in Britain', but nothing about Nickileaks. Guardian and Times have her on the front page but in a more positive light.

Was that Torygraphy's last hope? Surely there's no one else that could back them up. What a disaster for them, pleasing.

It's apparently stemmed from the scottish civil service somewhere.

Someone is gonna get a baw booting.

I doubt the Telegraph would have done that, too damaging to their own reputation. If the story is untrue they've either made a huge mistake, or believed they wouldn't get caught.

I'm still more inclined to believe a story in a respected paper than the words of a politician. Now there is reasonable doubt so it is difficult to know whether it is false or not. Thing is all it is is evidence of something everyone knows is true anyway. Tories and SNP share the same interests and will want the other to suceed at this election.

Honesstly man, give up just leave the forum. You're gone in the head.

I fully expect our first minister to hold a press conference on this. She will prove its rubbish ie quote the French ambassador; and launch a scathing attack on labour. This will be very good for the SNP imo.

The FM to ask for Sir Peter Heywood to conduct an inquiry into the "memo".

I find when telling a lie it's best to make it believable. Make it too big and people start digging.

Nicola will come through this stronger. She is basically going to have a platform to speak for the next few days and to go after Labour , yet again, being hand in glove with the UK establishment.

I think its just a case of run with it anyway and hopefully the damage can be done, thats why they are still reporting it even after its been proven to be untrue. The referendum campaign hasn't really ended, we are going to see years of this til we either leave the UK or the issue is settled for good.

They have no shame, no integrity, no professionalism. Anything they can do to smear the SNP they will do. We face a hell of a fight.

It should but probably won't. Even now, the entire media is going with "Sturgeon denies", which in most people's eyes will make her guilty.

I can see how this will continue to be reported:

"Sturgeon has been caught saying she would prefer Cameron", "controversy will overshadow recent debate success", "SNP supporters have rushed to her defence", "ahemtheFrenchConsulatehavedeniedthewholethingsaaywhat"..."Labour have called this explosive news".

Oh dear. Murphy's trundled Alistair Campbell out. Talk about selling your soul.

Alastair Campbell takes Marilyn Monro's advice and 'Thinks in Ink' about SNP/Tory shared interests. http://tinyurl.com/n86oblh

Now what about the fallout? Sturgeon has adamantly denied the story, and so have the French. However, it is hard to believe that nothing at all was said to justify the colourful account, and also easy to believe that a politician might be a little loose-tongued with a charming and suave French diplomat. It has been known to happen.

Campbell harkening back to his early days as a writer of soft porn there in his inimitable sexist way.
