Re: SNP: Two Murrells, one motorhome and a shed-load of missing cash
One of the deeply annoying things about all this is that it makes ‘Rev’ Stu Campbell (a.k.a. Wings Over Scotland) look like a credible, competent operator, despite his being responsible for one of the most egregious pieces of magical thinking of 2014 (his ‘Wee Blue Book’, part of the wider indyref campaign that year). That and his annoyingly funny interventions in the ongoing Twitter fight-back against Genderwoo, but that’s for the other thread.
Taylor’s analysis here is persuasive, and it does answer the pressing question of how Nippy Sturgeon could really think we’d buy her claims that she had no idea what was going on. As Taylor puts it, her claims are plausible because she was already looking the other way, trying to cover up something ‘merely’ dishonest rather than outright criminal.
For me one of the more entertaining things about this week was how Murrell more or less torpedoed any coverage of Tuesday’s performative debate and vote on the latest indyref that won’t happen.
