Be fair, HDLG. A home isn’t complete without a salt and pepper set by Lalique, costing £2,600. And who doesn’t need a £110 pencil sharpener?
Sturgeon was a busy woman. She had all those daily self aggrandising press conferences during lockdown to attend. She couldn’t possibly be expected to notice a £80,000 Jaguar or a £125,000 mobile home on her driveway.
What a tale of hubris. This gruesome, arrogant pair really did seem to think they were untouchable. The press was either compliant or intimidated into silence.
The result: they ran Scotland as their own private fiefdom. Any ideals they might have had were replaced by greed and a love of power. Precisely what Orwell warned us about in the late 1940s with his pigs in “Animal Farm”.
The fact Murrell’s hearing was moved from its original date of February to after the elections to the Scottish Parliament is of course nothing to be suspicious about. Who could possibly think otherwise?
