Thin-skinned politicians can t hack scutiny

Thin-skinned politicians can t hack scutiny Fri, 28 May 2021 Current MHKs can’t hack tough questions from the media, according to a senior member of the Celtic League. Bernard Moffatt has hit out at ‘thin-skinned’ politicians for being unable to stand up to public scrutiny. He claims a defensive approach is often adopted by those fronting the media. Mr Moffatt feels that’s a far cry from previous governments which he says could handle a strong line of questioning. “It worries me now that people are not willing to handle scrutiny and criticism.” He continued: “I notice these days, particularly when journalists are trying to interview politicians, [the politicians] are very defensive and they can be very, almost offended, if the sort of questions that the public want you to ask are put to these folk.
