topcat(The most tip top) Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 She was actually in the chamber the other day. Nearly fell out of my seat when the TV camera clocked her.That seems twice as odd to me because it means that my MSP was actually spending time in my constituency 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sophia Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Rachael Hamilton has just implored the Scottish Government to be both fleet of foot and to put their hand to the wheel. Setting aside the mangling of the wheel metaphor, unless your name starts with Fred and ends with Flintstone, how can you be running and driving at the same time? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachael simply wants Scotland to move forward, not backward; upward, not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards dependence. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Can we rename this as the tory thread? Anyway, Adam Tomkins throwing in the towel: [/url] Their spin doctor too: Tomkins claiming it’s not for political reasons. He’s seen the writing on the wall and is jumping before the crash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done it before after all. You're right in that the average salary for a Professor is much the same as an MSP, my hasty response was based on an article I read recently where a Professor at The London Business School earned £647,000 in one year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe she's trying to work her way back into favour after last summer's anyone-but-Boris strategy but BJ just doesn't seem the forgiving kind. Might just be trying to keep her profile high for consultancy work next year- she is still planning to leave Holyrood at the next elections? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
