My take on news & politics from the front line of schemie culture. Just watch for the flying bottles of buckie on your way out!

Worse Than Chloe Smith...
At the end of June,
we had supposedly an interview that was cringe worthy as much as it was car
crash television. It prompted a post here bemoaning the quality of political interviewers working in Scotland. One of my work colleagues who saw the post
asked why I hadn’t mentioned Isobel Fraser.
Thinking back, I suppose it was because she has only just reached the
top rank of political presenters/interviewers at BBC Scotland, so I wasn’t sure
of how good she is.

Day Of The Lords
Hmmm, House Of Lord’s
reforms. Dunno about you but I am kind of torn over this subject.
The Eric & Ernie of British Politic's |
On the one hand, it’s
yet another U-turn for a government that makes U-Turns into an Olympic standard
manoeuvre. At the last Westminster
Elections, all of the English based parties said that they would enact some
sort of reform on the UK’s
“Second” Chamber. Quelle Surprise that
the first party to turn against Lords reform are the establishment party. Clegg has a point in being angry at being
stiffed over both voting and Lord’s reform.
