During questions with the first minister in Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon was taken to task over the covering up of evidence by Conservative MSP Ruth Davidson.
Ruth Grilled the First Minister of Scotland for nearly 10 minutes. Nicola hit back using the term “Conspiracy Theory” as cover, but what was glaring to see was the sheer depth the First Minister went to keep certain aspects of the evidence given by the former First Minister Alex Salmond out of the realm of questioning.
After the questioning, news reporters reported that when uncovering the redacted parts of the evidence from Mr Salmond, the redacted words were around whether the First Minister Nicola Sturgeon was untruthful to the Scottish Parliament.
With a specific part of the evidence redacted, it means Sturgeon cannot be questioned around the truthfulness of her past statements made in Holyrood. This means Sturgeon will not have to be held accountable on the redacted part of Salmond’s evidence.
Whether Sturgeon told any untruths, there remains a strong whiff of a cover-up through redacting evidence so questions can’t be asked.
What’re your thoughts on this? Is this a cover-up, or a coincidence that the very details that would damage Sturgeon before an election was randomly redacted?
Leave your thoughts below in the comments.
It’s what Sturgeon is best at, promoting and protecting herself before Scotland.
This phrase ‘conspiracy theory’, appears to be a smokescreen now to divert attention away from the truth of what is presently being discussed. The very fact that Nicola Sturgeon believed that she had to dodge the issue is cause for concern. What is wrong with a simple Yes on No. The fact is that she has now caused more speculation that she is actually covering something up.
Sturgeon resign Your guilt
If you have nothing to fear then you hide nothing and give all the evidence without anything being missed out.
Damning analysis. Resign STURGEON! Dump the whole SNP in May, Scotland …… and save us this political civil war which achieves nothing for Scotland and which is exactly what the SNP achieve by their digraceful governance and execution of their devolved powers. DUMP, DUMP, DUMP!! Come May, let’s see the back of all this wrangling and poor governance and secure the Union.🇬🇧🏴🇯🇪🏴🏴😊
I’,m afraid that this young lady is beginning to sound like a Trump spin-off!
