Boris Johnson reportedly wanted Chris Whitty to inject him with Covid-19 on TV to show it was not as bad as was being said. WHEN Boris Johnson was elevated to Tory leader, I said that the country was headed for a disaster of biblical proportions. I said that Boris Johnson was a malignant narcissist and an incompetent buffoon who hid in a fridge to avoid a reporter. I said he was a lazy unrepentant liar. He is a Poundland Trump. He thinks of nothing else other than making money and coitus. At the start of the pandemic, frontline NHS workers said there were shortages of PPE and other vital equipment and no plan for dealing with the outbreak. Johnson’s government denied this and said there was one. Thanks to Dominic Cummings, now we know Boris Johnson was lying.
THE plight of the McVitie’s biscuit factory in Glasgow and of the workforce there who now face mass redundancies is a good illustration of the economic insecurity which comes with allowing overseas companies to own production capacity in Scotland. In a recent series of articles in The National, the Scottish Banking & Finance Group (SBFG) have been making the case for reform of Scotland’s financial system so that it provides capital to support the production of the goods and services people need. The McVitie’s story is an example of what happens when capital is not available for domestic companies to develop their business.
Letters: If you don t want indie, why not be brave enough to hold a vote against it?
No voters won the day in the 2014 referendum. Should another vote be held to prove that independence is still a minority cause? LISTENING to Radio Scotland this morning (May 10), I was amazed at the level of misunderstanding there seemed to be around how to decide one’s vote. It was as if most contributors thought that they were voting for or against independence last Thursday. That election was to vote for the party or parties whose manifesto one wanted implemented in government. Some parties included the intention to hold a referendum on independence, others planned to block one. It was not about deciding on independence, just the opportunity to do so at a later date.
