Theres a difference between poor decisions and corruption

There is of course  

I’m pretty sure there would have been benefactors of the war who had links to the government at that time. but at that time information wasn’t readily accessible. Corruption in government isn’t a new thing as we all know. It’s just easier to call it out now and also easier to gain traction on class stories in some case.

I am not sure the two are really comparable or relevant.

I thought at the time Tony Blair was a very good PM but the way we went into the Iraq war was unforgivable. Yes, the whole house voted in favour but on dodgy info, which IMO was signed off at the top or he was at least aware. He did a lot of good but he will always be a cunt in my eyes.

It’s all a waste of tax payers money by corrupt cunts. Seems very comparable to me. Just the ways in which they go about it which have changed rather than the underlying motives. In my opinion

Mine, too, but not just the Iraq war.

Depends how you look at it.

Time may reveal spending could have been better. At least it's been spent to try and fight a pandemic. 

However, for the Scottish not to spend the money on the nhs begs more serious questions.

They’ve spent it all on scotch for the scotch

[MickyD]

Wee Jimmy Crankie will doubtless come out in the morning with something along the lines of, “Oh, that money was for NHS spending? We didn’t realise.”

Shipping contracts to a crony without a ship. Fucking hell, if ever there was a contract given where it oughtn’t to have been, this was it.

I have said it before and I will say it again, there is no way this shit would go down if TM was still in charge. I still think TM was treated badly by her own party but she oversaw the hostile environment when Windrush blew up so maybe karma played part.

Is this a leftie policy ? Unique to Scotland ? I never quite understand your point.

Not in the banana republic which is otherwise known as Scotland 

 

a man can rape a woman be charged and then self identify at court as a woman with no ability for this to be stopped. 

 

A person can without any checks or any medical or other certification decide today They are going to self identify as a man or a woman and it takes effect and that is how they are to be taken. 
 

it’s madness
