    "FORMER Labour first minister Henry McLeish today warns his party are in danger of dying out in Scotland unless radical action is taken now."
    Hopefully the SNP will get back to doing what they do best which is governing a devolved Scotland.

    I wonder if you actually know any of their policies other than independence?
    No peeking at google now....

      Why would we invade anywhere when we'll be living in the land of milk and honey?

        Of course I do. I quite often attend meetings held by Angela Constance, Fiona Hyslop and Shona Robinson, as well as Alex & Nicola

          Out of interest, do you discuss anything relevant to the governance of the country or do your meetings reflect the, frankly simplistic, view of the world that you project in your postings on this site?

            I said I attended the meetings. I didn't say I discussed anything

              Fiona Hyslop was the one that claimed Scotland never ran a deficit.

                    Salmond is a tool, but I once went to a work related conference that Nicola Sturgeon spoke at - a very niche area of healthcare. She was actually the only minister I've ever seen speak who knew what she was on about. Very well briefed and able to answer questions extremely well in an area that would have most hospital consultants completely stumped. Don't know what she's like otherwise.

                      Most of them are very good with their brief and can talk easily with people in that area of expertise face to face. Most of the time you only see them on TV giving vox pops or answering a journalist's questions which is obviously trimmed down for TV.

                      I'm not just talking about the SNP MSPs but the other parties as well as I've also attended their events.
