Interesting article looking at how Scottish contempt of court laws protect the rich and powerful in Scotland, and prevent the sort of rolling analysis and coverage we’re used to for Westminster. Partygate style coverage of SNP corruption is not legally possible.
If the legal case hasn’t resolved by the GE Labour will have to make the case to Scottish voters without reference to the criminality within the SNP, lest they fall foul of contempt of court. An absurd proposition.
