"CalMac admitted their performance had declined – despite the pay boost for their chief executive." Why is failure always rewarded in SNP Scotland? #SNPout #AbolishHoylrood

Goodness Gracious Me!
So the biggest beneficiary of John Swinney's trip to India seems to have been India itself - and an IT firm based in Bangalore which has been handed a £35 million contract to manage benefit payments in Scotland!
Make it make sense

It was Lady Dorrian who erred by granting this order in the first place when it is entirely obvious to those who were directly involved that the complainants lied and perjured themselves during Alex Salmond's trial.
The damage they have done to actual victims of sexual assault is incalculable but very obviously serious and far reaching.
The key complainants should be in jail alongside fallguy Murrell.
Scotland will remain a basketcase whilst this level of corruption continues and the senior judiciary behave as a protection racket for those, in senior positions of power - and those who influence those in power - who are actually guilty.
This is a fascinating case
“The Court of Session upheld the Scottish Government’s appeal against David Hamilton’s decision, finding he set the bar too high when judging whether disclosure could identify the women who complained about Alex Salmond”

This is a remarkable story.
The SNP are spending £21.8 million to pay Scottish civil servants who have no permanent role, which could fund 584 junior doctors on their current starting salary of £37,316 a year in Scotland.

A doctor rapes a patient.
The victim reports it.
THE DOCTOR ADMITS IT.
He tells a hospital committee that it was a "one off" and he will not do it again.
THE MANAGEMENT SAYS THAT IS OK.
And allow him to carry on working.
THE POLICE TAKE NO ACTION.
The hospital concerned is the BLACKPOOL VICTORIA HOSPITAL.
The same hospital where a 75 year old patient was raped to death and no one was ever convicted for it.
Are women worth nothing to the NHS?

There are several damning revelations here but perhaps the most shocking is that BBC publicists REFUSED to promote a film about October 7.
None were disciplined. A non-BBC employee was then employed to promote the film - even though BBC employees were being paid to do this.

The SNP is betraying Scottish factories with Chinese made schoolbags to be given to every P1 pupil. The fact they’re using Chinese firms who pay workers £1 per hour is an extra kick in the teeth for Scottish companies. If the Government is not going to use our own workers who is?

💥 Scotland’s hidden army of public sector ‘ghost workers’ whose jobs no longer exist but cannot be made redundant.
💰Staff have spent as long as 17 years on full pay without a fixed job, costing taxpayers tens of millions.

Before diversity we didn’t need signs telling people not to shit in public.
Now we do.
What a sorry state of a country we’ve become!

For the avoidance of doubt (since some have been asking), the 800 on the Scottish public payroll without proper jobs does NOT include the 129 MSPs in Holyrood 🤣🤣🤣
Astounding Sunday Times investigation reveals new scandal in SNP’s Socialist Scotland:
800 NHS, central government, council and quango workers whose jobs no longer exist but remain on the public payroll because of the SNP’s ‘no public-sector redundancy’ policy.
Estimated cost of paying people to do nothing: £27m a year.
One NHS Highland worker has been receiving a full salary and benefits for 17 years despite not having a specific job.
The health board refused to say what the worker had been doing for almost two decades and how much they had been paid.
Likely cost to the taxpayer is expected to be far higher with several public bodies refusing to disclose salaries for hundreds of the workers awaiting redeployment.

@British_Airways you have taken my money and say it will take 4 weeks to provide a receipt, maybe
granrose retweeted
@British_Airways incredibly disappointed. I received incorrect payment confirmation. Called you and eventually spoke to someone. They sent different, also incorrect payment information. Said there is nothing else they can do. Told me to raise a complaint which takes 4 weeks.

It’s sickening isn’t it when 6 Million people on benefits will receive £150 energy bill discount this winter & yet workers who are struggling to pay their bills get NOTHING.
A lot of people on benefits are better off than workers because they get so many more additional benefits that workers don’t get.
It’s wrong that you can be better off on benefits than working.
REWARD WORKERS NOT SHIRKERS

The SNP, including Sturgeon, has apologised to long dead witches but they have not apologised to the families of care home residents who died of the deadly virus after a damning UK Covid Inquiry criticised them for a lack of preparedness. The SNP must be held to account.
