@WingsScotland Yep Corstorphine Old Parish and Swinney plus his mates. A hotbed of Scottish nationalist and Celtic fans. Invite to join rapidly filed in bin.

@alexmassie On other words its not reliable enough to be given a regular route and Calmac will only use it if they have to!

@dpmont0407 @thinkdefence Just maybe there was a little bit of self interest in stopping the Nazis??

@glasgowswestend @Dennynews Deflectors up whataboutery drive engaged 🙄

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@JacobAD82 @joannaccherry Or we could all email Sir Lindsay directly? There is a very useful contact form online. Obviously any taxpayer money stolen by Murrell should be repaid by the SNP.

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@JacobAD82 @joannaccherry The Clerk of the HoC is responsible for partys short money allocation and reports to the Hoc Commission which is chaired by the Speaker. Perhaps one of your Westminster colleagues could ask Sir Lindsay what steps he has taken to ensure short money wasn't stolen by Peter Murrell?

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@WingsEcosse @staylorish If you read Sam’s post yesterday the SNP apparently spent 480k of it in the 2017 GE, there was no ring fencing. Murrell stole 400k most of it came from outside the fundraiser. The interesting thing will be if WM “short”money is mixed up in this…

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@WingsEcosse @staylorish In 2017 £482k was raised the rest was raised after.

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@staylorish If the crowd funding money is gone how do we know that the money didn't come from the SNPs Westminster short money? I will be extremely angry if my taxes have directly paid for his salt and pepper mills!
No wonder our first minister is desperate to avoid the issue.

@afneil Grievance granny isn't good with maths just like the SNP.

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@wave_hoppa @NavyLookout @RFATideforce @MarineNationale @FrenchForces Agreed totally not right and in the scheme of things what's needed is peanuts. And they wonder why they have recruitment and rection issues...

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@kevverage @jazzyrussell59 SNats ain't very good with numbers.

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@The_Red_Dandy @afneil A funny concept is continually avoiding the economic realities of independence whilst spending much more than you earn because of the Barnet formula and pretending that independence wouldn't involve tartan austerity.

@OnJambos41038 @DouglasRob0 Away back under your bridge and grow up. God help your kids.

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@OnJambos41038 @DouglasRob0 Just what are you blathering on about?
"You types" clearly ain't living here putting up with the cack handed SNP 🙄

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@OnJambos41038 @DouglasRob0 Some Scots do indeed need to wake up. The dafties who think everything is free and the SNP are doing a good job...

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@brodie_prime @DouglasRob0 Could be although I've seen DB schemes where you can put in AVCs to "buy" extra entitlement. Alternatively you could just take out a SIPP. As I said previously it depends what is more valuable to the individual increased pension or time.
No matter what Scottish tax is too high!

[David Hogg @dvdih]

@DouglasRob0 Depends on the scheme if it allows extra payments and any early retirement rules or you can set up a personal pension. By increasing pension payments you can lower taxable pay potentially avoiding a higher band of taxation. However time off may be more valuable to your colleague.
