Acaila posted:I only recognise three names there - the MEPs and Muscatelli, who IIRC everyone hates? Lord Kerr used to be head of the Diplomatic Service, and he's about the most establishment person there is, or is possible to be. His wiki entry is an interesting read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Kerr,_Baron_Kerr_of_Kinlochard . The Trilateral Commission, Bilderbergs, Rio Tinto and Royal Dutch Shell, on top of the FCO work! But, a useful ally, perhaps, with the usual caveats about long-spoon supping.

keep punching joe posted:Scottish Twitter lawyers are a pro follow, especially for land reform and constitutional issues. I'd recommend @PeatWorrier @loveandgarbage @trewloy @MalcolmCombe @profchalmers. Stick with @trewloy (the former @loveandgarbage) even when he goes a bit odd (his "think of a number between one and a million" game where he retweeted all the hundreds of replies, for example) - he's a master of the twitter form, and utterly forensically brutal when he gets the bit between his teeth on a legal matter.

Jedit posted:Sturgeon does realise she's robbing Peter to pay Paul, right? Council funding is an ongoing catastrophe right now. An utter, utter disaster for things like adult services - services that once they are gone will be practically impossible to start up again.

Pissflaps posted:Without the polling stations and vote counters I'm not sure how such a poll would be possible. Perhaps they could seek advice from their major donor Brian Souter? After all, he has experience organising a Scotland -wide poll that eschewed polling stations.

forkboy84 posted:Saw the Social Security (Scotland) bill past and also that the Nats voted with Tories to stop a Labour amendment to increase child benefit payments by a fiver which seems bad. At least the Green amendment to ban unnecessary medical assessments for disability benefit claimants is a humane step. Scottish Government got some local amendments to Universal Credit, although I think that all that amounts to is making more front-and-centre some options that are already catered for eg frequency of payments, paying landlords directly Edit: to be a bit clearer, UC has inbuilt flexibility on certain matters, but only accessible by DWP staff. In Scotland those options are offered to every claimant through the UC journal system. TheHoodedClaw fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Apr 25, 2018 |
