Not sure about the plates and cups but we all needed to replace the pots and pans after beating the **** out of them every Thursday making a noise for the NHS.

Is it strange that nobody wants to take on this job? Strikes me as unusual that thd party of government in Scotland would be reduced to cold calling auditors.

Why is it that the SNP can't get any financial company to audit their accounts?

No doubt people with more direct experience of auditing firms will know better thn me, but in my indirect experience the big firms tend to have clear workplans for the short- to medium-term. I suspect many aren't sitting around, drumming their fingers, hoping someone will call them.

I also suspect that the SNP are in what some of us would call a seller's market. They don't want a service, they need a service and they need it sharpish. That likely means any firm with business sense can charge over the market rate.

If this does cost the party more, then I think they should do the decent thing and refund the equivalent amount to members. It's not their fault that their membership fees are propping up such a dysfunctional and dishonest regime.

I suspect given what’s been going on, any engagement might need to be quite a bit more in depth to ensure the full details are known and covered than if it was part of an ongoing engagement. Not something that can be done quickly unless lots of resource is thrown at it, which costs.

The Herald appears to have won some sort of appeal to have these papers released:

More questions for Yousaf over gay marriage vote and 'unavoidable' meeting (yahoo.com)

[WhileTheChief..]

He must have known people would check up on his take on this. I doubt he'd be so daft as to make up a meeting didn't exist or to claim the family was begging for help if they hadn't been in touch.

He's screwed if the story turns out to be correct.

I doubt that he would have foreseen the current situation unfolding and the story he had concocted would mean he got away with this. I have no doubt he had the meeting and they probably discussed the topic he claims. However it seems pretty clear this was a meeting of. convenience and there just happened to be a reason he could make it sound legitimate. In his previous roles no one was interested. As first minister though it’s very different.

My view is that honesty is the best policy and to keep sticking to a story that has all the hallmarks of being a lie makes it worse than admitting what he did.

It isn't though. Which is why they all lie. Nobody truths their way into that position of power.

Yeah. True. That’s what I hate about our politicians when they dodge the truth. They even dodge easy questions just in case.

I still prefer honesty but it’s all to rare these days.

This Indy supporting satirist pretty much nails this with the very last word in his latest sketch. This is probably his funniest one in his series so far, all of them are on youtube. He goes over the many Indy Ref 2 strategies put to voters by NS over the years. He's no fan of the SNP, Labour, The Greens or the Tories, so I'm not sure which party he wants to run the country He plays a charachter called Morag who is an uber NS fan.

I hesitated to post it when I first watched it as personally don't find any reference to the Care Home deaths dues to covid funny, it seems insensitive to me. Might not be everyone's cup of tea, but for the most part judging by the comments even Indy supporters could see the funny side of it.

Supporters of Kate Forbes are secretly organising a “shadow government” as part of preparations to launch a coup against Humza Yousaf.

If it's a secret, then how does The Times know about it?

However, her key allies have been holding behind-closed-doors talks with MSPs and MPs with a view to making a move to oust the new first minister.

Behind closed doors? But open to journalists of The Times?

Kate's reply.

"I’d usually ignore articles with ‘sources’ purporting to speak for me & about me, but the latest ‘coup’ piece tonight is ridiculous. I’m busy enough - contributing to policy debates, supporting the party & working in the constituency, where there are no shortage of fine coos."

She then posts a picture of a highland coo.

Not sure what the media are trying to do with her at the moment. Possibly trying to build her up just now, so that if she ever goes for the leadership, they can say, we told you so.

I have no particular insights here, but given the amount of leaking to the media during the leadership contest, it not that strange that it could still be going on. The question is who is doing it? It could also be to undermine Forbes, by implying she is disloyal.
