The extension of winter due to global warming has seen a delay in the annual visit of toads and frogs to my garden so I've been scouring the internet to see what's happened to them.
One was seen here ( centre of photo above) and was tweeting about the SNP being more interested in the independence referendum than the rape of a child.The toads in my garden have more respect than this Lord.
Aristocrats have always seen things in a strange way. They are not of the world in which you and I live.
ReplyDeleteThat is the only possible explanation for the idiotic outbust from his nobleness.
That, or, as usual, he was pissed as an arse.
I'm not sure that the police in Orkney are spending a lot of their time on the independence argument. In fact I'm pretty sure that they go about catching criminals the same as any other police force.
The notion that Kenny McAskill should perhaps go to Orkney and solve the case for them is rather silly.
Of course, I'm not sure what happened when Labour was in power in Edinburgh. Perhaps there was no crime and it could be that this was because their justice secretary had no independence problem to tie up his thoughts with.
I wonder, though, that during the 60s and the 70s when, for at least part of the time Labour was in power in London, that their sharp eyed Home Secretary (charged with looking after both policing/crime and television services in England) didn't notice that the BBC was playing host to a bunch of paedophiles some of whom as good as owned up to it, and did it on camera...
Or maybe the sensible answer to that is that Cabinet Secretaries for Justice and Home Office ministers aren't actually engaged in the day to day business of fighting crime.
And perhaps unelected 'politicians', particularly drunken old sots, should shut the hell up.
Just a thought!
Sorry, just realised that the rape didn't take place in Orkney but in honesty that doesn't change my argument.
ReplyDeletehi tris, yes these lords are not on the same planet as us lot. Fawned over and sucked up to by the media. Its a strange state of affairs when these ermine in vermine ( as Lord Prescott once called their noblenesses )can say or do whatever they like and no one in the msm thinks it's worth bringing them to task. This only encourages them and gives them more rope with which to show us the fools that they are.
