A non story, he stepped down due to time commitments and not political reasons, hence it's a non story.

Thank you for your post. What do you infer from this announcement? Do you think it shows the SNP in a bad light, another example of SNP mismanagement, or is it simply that the person has discovered he doesn't have the time for these additional duties?

I doubt he stepped down due to time commitments, he knew roughly what it would take 6 weeks ago. But I wasn't making that point its political news who the Westminster chief whip is, it'll now be Brendan O'Hara. Don't know much about him apart from he called rangers huns, which I like

I admit it is possible to read this post as being aggressive although it was not intended as such. It was late so I cut to the essence of my response.

I'm not aware my post contained any suggestion he should not have posted, I merely enquired what he thought about the announcement.

Isn't it a shame that nowadays people's first reaction is to disbelieve the politician's explanation?

Don't really think much about it it's not huge news. I think the new whip is closer aligned to Stephen flynn. I think flynn and black can make a big impression. I think blackford and NS will look stale in 5 years or whenever the next referendum can be, I'd perhaps prefer the former two to front it

That's not a nowadays thing. Most things that politicians have been spouting for decades are full of spin pr and untruths. Political class are worth the watching

So when Nadhim Zahawi says his tax affairs are up to date your first reaction is to believe him? Or when Boris Johnson said he never partied in Downing Street your first reaction was he was telling the truth?

Or is it only certain political parties where it's a shame people's first reaction is to disbelieve their explanation.

Perhaps you'd like to read this bit of the conversation again. You seem to have lost the plot.

Were you referring to all politicans? Or you just happen to believe him for some unspecified reason?

I, and most people I know, would automatically assume Boris Johnson isn’t telling the truth given the form. I would naturally be more inclined to believe someone who I don’t know to be a proven serial liar, until I was given reason not to.

Is that wrong of me?

It was a general comment about my perception that the quality of integrity in modern day politicians has significantly diminished. I put a lot of this down to Johnson and his lying cheating self-serving fascist cronies, but my comment was about how it has affected our views of all politicians.

My views are pretty close to yours here, I think it has proliferated during the term of the current Nasty parties time in office and the acceleration of misconduct, increasing number of crooks and lies being the default position is down to Bozo surrounding himself, in the main, with people who to varying degrees are like him and would only stand up to him to save their own skin.

Hilarious.

Meanwhile here's the estimated cost of one of the options for the restoration and rebuild of the Palace of Westminster.
£22 billion and up to 76 years to complete.

The cost control around the palace of westminster fiasco makes the Nasty party's PPE payola for their pals look like shrewd financial management.
They were talking about the latest estimated completion costs being 12bn in Nov 21.
Good to see so many hefty donators to the nasties in this trough as well.

Westminster/UK Government was responsible for building the Scottish Parliament £40m estimate ...

No one ever remembers that the £40m figure so often cast up was made by the Scottish Office (so, yes, Westminster) before any location had been identified and before any plans drawn up for the building. A figure almost literally plucked from the air. But it was useful as a stick to hit Scotland with ... and it still is, as posters on here demonstrate.
