Feb 2021. Salmond Sturgeon and Scotland Part 1

Rape Crisis Scotland has demanded the Scottish Parliament convenes an “emergency” meeting to rethink the decision to publish Alex Salmond’s submission to the Holyrood Inquiry. Chief executive Sandy Brindley said it was “inexplicable” the parliament would “knowingly publish” material which the charity said risks identifying a complainer. She blasted: “I think the lack of priority given to protecting complainers by the Corporate Body is a disgrace, and makes me ashamed of the parliament.” A Holyrood committee is investigating the SNP Government’s botched handling of sexual misconduct complaints against Salmond when he was First Minister. Salmond took the government to court and it was agreed the internal probe, which destroyed his friendship with Nicola Sturgeon, had been unlawful. The former First Minister’s allies believe government and SNP figures tried to plot his downfall. He was separately acquitted of sexual offences after a trial last year. He was found Innocent, and besides all stuff is now in the public domain for good or ill, so it makes no difference to the complainers. Just an attempt to justify the Highjack of an Innocent Man!
