@54Lamb@paulhutcheon@MacintoshMairi 2. It has no powers to demand the participation of members of Holyrood or it's Ministers, nor does it have powers to demand the production of any papers involved in what they want to investigate. So perhaps millions will be spent to support the Union and not Scottish government!
@54Lamb@paulhutcheon@MacintoshMairi 1. The Scottish Affairs Committee's only job is to oversee the work of the Scottish Office, Westminster's Colonial Office, and the work of Douglas Alexander. It has no remit to oversee any proceedings of Holyrood or the Scottish Government.
@STVNews How, because a kangaroo court will help them distract from;
the Mandelson scandal,
Douglas Alexander's secret meetings,
Joanie Reid Chinese spy scandal,
Colin Smyth,
Labour Together dark money,
Pam Duncan-Glancy
Foysol Choudhury
their ongoing PFI scandal
@TomSoede@ZiaYusufUK Nigel has already spoken about getting 'professionals' into government. Ministerial positions to 'like/right thinking' in the Lords! Great way of enabling cronies hoping to deflect criticism. How many will be created do you think if they have the same failure rate as councillors?
@alangrantuk@Bigbaz1874@ScotExpress Another bit of Whataboutery...

@Libertymama888@JakeWSimons And the Founding Fathers of the US, IRA in Ireland Hindi in India, Makarios and EOKA! I could go on about 'terrorists' in freedom movements against British rule, but it's all the same, unless it's about Jews?
@CookeIzzym@JillWitherjay17@JakeWSimons@bubbahotep147 Supporting organisations like Hamas, prescribed in the UK, is not compatible with their service. Declaring that Sharia, or personal religious observance must be treated differently is not serving 'without fear or favour' the main plank of our justice system!
@CookeIzzym@JillWitherjay17@JakeWSimons@bubbahotep147 I can understand a 'union' that exists to prevent discrimination to a section of society employed as Police officers, that's the role of traditional unions in our society. However, when that body is forwarding the aims of known terrorist organisations it's wrong.
