Anyone tempted by this “promise” (which now looks more like a threat) might first want to take account of the cautionary words of the President of the Family Division. bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/…

I do wonder whether, given the current omnishambles of Scottish politics, anyone actually wanting to take over as FM at this point in time should automatically be disqualified from doing so.
Very useful thread from @Scott_Wortley explaining what happens if the FM were to resign.

Whatever your politics, this is a slightly odd response for a party that was about to vote on doing *exactly the same thing*. Strong “she didn’t chuck me; I chucked her!” vibes here, IMHO.
This tension between the LA & the FM as to the route through may well explain the FM’s (misdirected) anger at Westminster. For myself, I agree with the LA: convictions, if wrongful, should be overturned by Courts, not legislative fiat.

This is appalling. I’ve never experienced this on entering any court I’ve appeared in, in Scotland or in England, and I would be outraged if anyone tried it.

Good evening. Tomorrow's Daily Record leads on the news that SNP stalwart John Swinney is set to launch his bid for the party's leadership. Readers can also have a chance to win a year's supply of dog food. #tomorrowsnewstoday #scotnews
@RoddyQC I haven’t had my coffee yet so definitely too early for any chess and SNP politics references.
@RoddyQC They also see to have forgotten already that a pro-Indy party….the Greens were more than happy to vote for the proposed Tory VONC in a SNP FM and to remove him from post which caused him to resign. It seems many in the SNP now want to forgive the Greens and move on as friends.
@RoddyQC @mickbrick54 A better paper might have had fun with the optics of a "Dog's Breakfast" tag line for that front page.....🤔
It is an embarrassment to the society we actively assist in protecting, as their lawyers, if we allow ourselves to be subjected to abuse and unprofessional behaviour. @HMCTSgovuk should be ashamed of themselves to think it acceptable to touch ANY court professional. How dare you.
@RoddyQC @mickbrick54 Are the two somehow linked? 😜
@RoddyQC @mik61scot Glad to see you survived the trauma of your doors. 🙏 😂
@RoddyQC Mind all those interlinked alarms as well 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@RoddyQC SNP-approved Brechin flood Mitigation Measure though….🤔😬👍
This week I’ve seen multiple tweets on disturbing behaviour by court security guards & real distress & trauma caused to lawyer colleagues. @HMCTSgovuk tagged repeatedly but no response. Lovely news about the peregrine falcons, but this is giving fiddling-while-Rome-burns vibes…
🐦A pair of peregrine falcons have once again returned to nest on the roof of one of our buildings. 🐣The incubation appears to be progressing smoothly, and our livestream has already captured the hatching of three chicks. Follow their progress here⤵️ youtube.com/@HMCTSPeregrin…
@RoddyQC Pardon my language but “any”. I did read that right? And yes, I was going to curse but it’s Wednesday.
@RoddyQC An exceptionally vulnerable child. Autism and anorexia leading to severe malnutrition + mental health problems that had her hospitalised for 9 months. Was prescribed a high dose testosterone level immediately, on the say so of a GenderGP counsellor (with no medical knowledge).
I find Kate Forbes' views on gay marriage etc pretty dreadful. But she's no more going to legislate on any of them than Humza Yousaf was going to legislate for Sharia law or mandatory burkas, so picking on her for her faith if you didn't criticise him is massively hypocritical.
I wonder if others share my embarrassment at the last few days of Scottish politics? Petty, childish, hurt feelings - no wonder English MP's are laughing at us. Then add the misogyny and religious bigotry from so-called political commentators and it's clear it's been a bad week.
Since when is "deterrence" paying a person voluntarily departing £3k plus airfare plus board and lodging for 5 years?
@RoddyQC Kate has integrity, honesty and intelligence. That article lacked all of these qualities.
@RoddyQC The “I don’t like Kate” bunch are being pretty vocal. I have to say I rather like her.
@RoddyQC @WullieHalliday Or a competent (and Christian) John Swinney.
So, it looks like we’re going to be doing this whole bunch of guys (or at least people siding with a guy) monster the young woman and parade her as some sort of witch thing, again …. how enlightened
