I think she's wilfully misremembering, there's nobody on here going to shift that, the fact that you feel the need to compare her to Salmond shows where you and many others stand on it, I'm not interested in defending anything Salmond did before all this kicked off. As you can tell though, I'm not a Sturgeon or SNP fan, they're not taking us a step nearer independence anytime soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, like I said right at the beginning, some people will believe she's lying some won't. There's no way to argue each other round to changing minds. The reason I compared it to Salmond is simply because he had a very similar lapse of memory in exactly the same hearing covering exactly the same events. So it's just not credible to say Sturgeon couldn't possibly have forgotten some of these details whilst Salmond could have. You can believe he did and she didn't but simply saying "It's not possible that she'd misremember this stuff" doesn't stand up to any scrutiny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your not a Sturgeon or SNP fan, never ! well you had me fooled lol All joking aside the one thing for certain is she will take us a damned site closer to independence, than if we end up with pro Unionist majority come May 7th. I think vast majority of Indy voters understand that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paolo2143 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 If we Alex Salmond is planning to try and destroy the FM/Scottish Govt's credibility by drip feeding information to press/public over next couple of months, I don't think it is a wise strategy. If he is seen as the cause of a Pro Unionist majority come May 7th then he will be as popular in Scotland as Mo Johnson was with Celtic fans after his "last" minute signing to Rangers back in 1989. He ended up being one of the most loathed persons in Glasgow lol. Not only will the Unionists go back to showing naked contempt for him but he will be a pariah with majority of YES voters. If i was him and i still wanted to do a lot of damage to FM'S reputation and embarrass the SNP, but remain popular with Indy voters, I would serve my revenge just after election. If say on weekend after election he was to release further revelations and say that he felt compelled to stay quiet until after election, as didn't want to damage chance of Independence, he could portray himself as martyr and that would ensure he remained popular with very movement he helped so much with. Now that would be a cunning plan as "Baldrick" might say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would absolutely love to be able to understand the thought process whereby you can decide that a woman who joined and has been a member of the Scottish National Party in 1986 - a full 28 years before becoming First Minister - that has been a proponent of Scottish Independence for at least 34 years, who was one of the most prominent members of the campaign team in 2014, and who has support for Scottish Independence at an all time high, isn't actually interested in Independence. Not sure "Galaxy brain" quite covers that. The Yes Da's are some laugh. Edited March 4, 2021 by J_Stewart 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strichener Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 1 hour ago, Gordon EF said: I think you're applying double standards. Salmond wasn't being accused of being less than gentlemanly. He was being accused of serious sexual assault which would have by his own words potentially seen him been imprisoned and that he denies. I don't think it's credible to hold Sturgeon to the standard that she must remember every detail and order of all of these events but of course it's understandable that Salmond would just muddle up things in a similar scenario. Even if you accept that she forgot about the initial meeting, she hasn't denied that this was where the meeting of the 2nd was arranged. Therefore why was there no official record on the meeting of the 2nd taken? It was quite clearly government business and therefore in accordance with the ministerial code, it should have been officially recorded. Is this meeting on the monthly list of engagements, if not why not? Quote Ministers meet many people and organisations and consider a wide range of views as part of the formulation of Government policy. Private Offices should arrange for the basic facts of formal meetings between Ministers and outside interest groups to be recorded, setting out the reasons for the meeting, the names of those attending and the interests represented. A monthly list of engagements carried out by all Ministers is published three months in arrears. A monthly list of engagements carried out by all Ministers is published three months in arrears. Detailed arrangements for recording contacts with outside interest groups, including lobbyists, are set out in paragraphs 4.22 to 4.24 above.
