Since he was a cheery wee chap just doing his job courteously, I asked him in to see there was no arial connected to the screen. So when Angus Robertson had the affair 2014/2015 with another woman. On 27 February, project manager Jennifer Dempsie - who had previously worked as an adviser for former first minister Alex Salmond - first contacted the office of Culture Secretary Fiona.

Write by: The public figure, who is not being named for legal reasons, told the high court in Edinburgh that the woman took part in a small private dinner with him, Salmond and a third guest at Bute House in Edinburgh, the first ministers official residence, in June 2014. What really hurt her was that the stories appeared to have been briefed directly from her mentors team. I cant get in to the Spectator hearing this morning using the dial in details which I see have been removed from the High Court website. I agree. Hungary, Ukraine, Belarus and now Scotland. Cole-Hamilton does it every chance he gets. Anybody interested to listen to the High Court can do so as follows. The one area where all the complainers were let down, was the unlawful and tainted by apparant bias of the Civil/ Employment, specially drafted and only used once, complaints procedure which LE procured and NS signed off on now subject to a parliamentary inquiry because it was such a fuck up. I think it is a leaving photo. tyson jost dad; sean penn parkinson's disease; mockingbirds attacking my cat They want Nicola to have the last word because the last words are remembered. All of which is, I daresay, all very well and good. I see Geoff Aberdein next to Alex, Campbell Gunn at the back behind Alex, LL on the right. Dempsie, a former adviser to Alex Salmond, simply did her job by using her contacts to put her client in front of government. September 14, 2015. Posted at 09:45h in still life art competition by gordon cooper, astronaut wife. IT was a side of Nicola Sturgeon that her top team of advisers rarely see. I just hope she is on the side of the snp, Is there any hope this depressing shit show will be over any time soon? Inside the SNP, they do not know what lies ahead for Miss Sturgeon and Mr Salmond. Weve already had a court say the original process was unlawful. Theres something very unnatural about Aberdeins front leg and the hand on his shoulder is very clumsily edited. Has the British deep state all over it. Miss Sturgeon had hoped she could move on from what had been her worst week as First Minister. Is that Pringle behind Stephen Noon? So for me, its either staggering naivety or he had a wee plan cooked up himself which has backfired badly. If you respond to their contact saying you dont watch broadcast television, they seem to go away for a few years. Some believe Brexit Secretary Mike Russell is an option, although he has previously been sacked as education secretary and many think his rumbustious style of politics would be a major turn-off for voters. About five years ago, when the licence rep visited, he was happy enough to be told I dont watch TV and use the screen solely for DVDs or streaming. How long will it take for the Spectator case to come to a verdict/conclusion? wins its legal challenge over Salmond trial court orders: Lady Dorrian to vary an order which now allows Salmond and Geoff Aberdein evidence to be published. Did all their hopes rest on never having to face any scrutiny or is Liz Lloyd now feeling like shes been duped and could be made a patsy? Information about his character is also almost as rare as snapshots, but according a couple of articles by his former employer, five years apart, were told that hes tetchy andknown for his aggressive and combative spats with journalists. Its not like every time theres a harrassment case there should be a holyrood enquiry. No, not that kind, the vote-winning kind. Joanna is making the best of a bad job whilst at the same time giving the bloated one the finger. Whats a heptagon cross, sounds interesting. Suddenly, from being a friendly place full of laid back people, some eccentrics and oddballs and having an almost family feel to it, it seemed to be rammed full of young people in sharp suits and management consultancy types. The interesting part is that it drags in Murrell the Squirrel. @spectator Liz Lloyd in this photo who did she work for at this point in time? A certain seniorofficial had thousands of pounds of taxpayers money spent on lawyers getting her out of it by trying to pre-determine what questions she could be asked, while Alex Salmond has been invited to appear, but literally threatened with imprisonment if he turns up and tells the truth. Vapid tool of the junta, John Swinney, has gone quiet. For anyone who has been reading my postings on American influence within the SG/SNP Please note Duncan Hamilton received an LLB from the University of Edinburgh and was a Kennedy scholar at Harvard, Massachusetts. Scottish politics Former Alex Salmond adviser withdraws from Holyrood running. Whilst searching for info on Stuart Nicolson, I came across this.

The 33-year-old said last night that it was a great honour to have been encouraged by colleagues to throw her hat in the ring for nomination, but that it would be a tough act to follow for whoever gets the chance. As a former SNP candidate in a target seat and indeed a long time on the NEC it is getting embarrassing. So, if the Spectator have won, are we getting the whole submission without the redacted paragraph? And yet now the common phrase being pummelled by Scot Gov and its tame media, is, let down by the courts/legal system etc. Alex Salmond has been on trial in a court and been found not guilty, It is understood the Spectator will argue there is a strong public interest in disclosure under article 10 of the European convention on human rights, given the significance of Salmonds allegations about Sturgeons government and party, @mac But such is the state of the SNP in terms of membership loyalty and the cult of personality that I think I would be in a minority on that., He added: We are heading for trouble and the party membership dont realise it they are in a state of denial. Did they lose evidence, fail to trace and interview all the potential witnesses, did Police not take the enquiry seriously and fail to investigate? ALISON BALHARRY says: He was never sexually unfaithful to Moira.. BLMac, it would be good if you (as someone who contributed) could do this and ask them to provide you with all the advertised terms and conditions that the SNP published as Police will need copies of them. Alex Massie is Scotland Editor of The Spectator. There is every likelyhood, that once one complaint is made, many more will follow, and it will in effect become the equivalent of a class action. He regularly used to explode when confronted by negative newspaper headlines. The great ignored truth of the devolution years is that Holyrood has been a bulwark against change, not an agent for it. The alarm bells should be ringing.. As a general rule and when it comes to gender one cannot avoid generalisation this is a kind of politics that, more likely than not, is more attractive to men than to women. Miss Dempsie was a special adviser to Mr Salmond, who was a guest at her 2011 wedding to Isle of Harris bunkhouse owner Ruari Beaton, 48. On Tuesday, more revelations emerged, as Mr Salmonds former chief of staff, Geoff Aberdein a personal friend and former colleague of Miss Lloyd, and who now works in the private sector for Standard Life Aberdeen claimed she had told him she suspected there had been a complaint about Mr Salmond in late March last year. A certain senior official had thousands of pounds of taxpayers' money spent on lawyers getting her out of it by trying to pre-determine what questions she could be asked, while Alex Salmond has been "invited" to appear, but literally threatened with imprisonment if he turns up and tells the truth. On Tuesday, McCall had challenged H about her account of the dinner with the celebrity. This could get confusing. 11 February, 2021 at 12:50 pm. Aime Cesaire provided a thoughtful description of the dominant bourgeoisie class, culture and purpose, much of which we see reflected in the activities of our meritocratic elite today, as you so ably describe: ..sadistic governors and greedy bankers, prefects who torture and colonists who flog, not only corrupt, check-licking politicians and subservient judges, but likewise and for the same reason, venomous journalists, goitrous academics, wreathed in dollars and stupidity, ethnographers who go in for metaphysics, presumptuous theologians, chattering intellectuals born stinking out of the thigh of Nietzsche, the paternalists, the embracers, the corrupters, the back-slappers, the lovers of exoticism, the dividers, the agrarian sociologists, the hoodwinkers, the hoaxers, the hot-air artists, the humbugs, and in general, all those who, performing their functions in the sordid division of labour for the defense of Western bourgeois society, try in diverse ways and by infamous diversions to split up the forces of Progress even if it means denying the very possibility of Progress all of them tools of capitalism, all of them, openly or secretly, supporters of plundering colonialism, all of them responsible, all hateful, all slave-traders, all henceforth answerable for the violence of revolutionary action.. Lady D cant appear to be too keen to withdraw certain aspects of the anonymity order .. even if she believes some parties have been involved in a stitch-up, she needs evidence, by case law or precedent. Ironically, it was the type of reaction many of the special advisers had not seen since Mr Salmonds reign. It appears especially audacious given the immense lengths the Scottish Government has gone to to PREVENT certain people from appearing in front of the Fabiani Fiasco. Off-camera came the audible respose that she could name them. I have a deep mistrust of Scots who take honours from the the British Establishment. May 28, 2016.

Ive got to assume The Spectator knows what its doing, what its doing will cost quite a lot of money, and that it will succeed. Oh! There are now a lot of different people from different backgrounds with different views, one SNP politician said. With very occasional honourable exceptions, including . What hasnt happened is the Scottish goverment, snp members and the lord advocate now need to go on trial, I find myself replaying over and over the jingle from ITVs The Masked Singer: [42] That is just re-smearing Alex Salmond by the back door. Stu, A couple of days ago, some bright spark spotted the double spacing to defeat word search in the documents. Judge adds that The Spectator could then publish an article criticising the approach so bringing the issue into the public domain, she continues saying these proceedings are not a conduit to the [inquiry] committee.. She cant possibly lead the party into the next election, whether thats Holyrood or Westminster. I cant tell whether they think theyll still wriggle out of this or were seeing a scorched earth campaign in action. Privately, some in the Government also worry about losing their grip on Scottish politics at the next election and dread the prospect of one coming along before 2021. I posted a guide on how to go about it last week? Kenny @11:29 Endorsement may have been refused because of this , https://www.facebook.com/BritU1/posts/the-snps-mrs-message-her-romance-with-a-party-chief-and-a-150000-government-cheq/837293913044502/, SPADS 2018 Are the press allowed to name either the victim or the alleged perpetrator given the case has no relevance to a previous case they may or may not have been involved in ? I have been racking my brains to think of the names because I knew you would ask. Akeywitness, Geoff Aberdein, was effectively barred from being even mentioned, let alone allowed to answer questions. @Alan @Eileen Rev do you have a date for the pre referendum picture?

He said one bottle of red wine was drunk and that he thought H was wearing jeans, but could not be certain. So far it certainly sounds like Lady Dorrian is amenable to changing the wording of the order to specifically say that you mustnt identify anyone AS A COMPLAINER, rather than simply identifying anyone who HAPPENS TO BE a complainer, which would be very welcome. Jennifer Dempsie has entered the contest to succeed Salmond as the SNP candidate in Aberdeenshire East, it emerged yesterday. We are subjected to a government and judiciary of the very worst kind, while the MSM simply look the other way. As Lallands Peat Worrier reminded us: On the constituency ballot, 41% of the male electorate supported the SNP, compared to only 32% of women voters. National identity, as without that there is no national consciousness or drive for independence; It would be bliss, never to see that gawping avatar or reads those life-sapping words ever again. Despite having worked for BBC Scotland, been the political editor of the Scottish Daily Mail and now being the First Ministers personal spokesman and special adviser, the only photograph weve been able to find of him is this one, keeping some interesting company before the indyref. He certainly looks like one angry little man. Dont suppose theres a caption with names to go with that photo? 11 February, 2021 at 11:20 am Ms Dempsie, who lives in Garmouth in the north-east, began working for the SNP a decade ago as a press officer for Nicola Sturgeon, before being appointed as a special advisor to Mr Salmond when he was first minister.
