It’s neither a pile on or pathetic. i don’t think anyone has defended Murrell if he is found guilty. A comparison with the treatment of 5he SNP by the press and media with that of the conservative government is a perfectly valid topic for this thread. You seem to want to restrict any discussion to ‘things that happen with Scottish Parliaments and MSPs’. Scottish Politics is of course a far wider subject than that given the fact that Westminster still has a considerable role in running/ruining our lives and futures. I for one will continue to post what the hell I like in this thread if it’s about politics that impact the Scottish people.
