exile Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 So... if I followed that correctly Davidson and Falconer were hardly supportive of Carmichael and more or less said he should consider his position? But without any sense of real pressure or urgency. Nicolson seemed leaden footed, and Riddoch could have answered all the SNP questions herself Alex Massie a long winded troll, trying to be clever calling carmichael bagpuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 whoa, This week, a precious few minutes on the Carmichael affair, and Andrew Neil spends almost the entire time trying to skewer Salmond on his 'lying' about EU legal advice... which he is entitled to bring up as part of the issue but surely not the whole issue - but I'd have liked to hear what Portillo, Johnson and UKIPper thought, would they defend Carmichael or not? What about Mundell? Why are they not asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stapes Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I can only hope you were pissed because he is rank It was an SNP hustings to choose the candidate. So a very different scenario. But I agree, he was poor last night. Surprised they threw him in there so early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Bongo Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I thought Nicolson was alright Was the poorest i had seen Massie though And as for Ruth Davidson bringing up the Orkney & Shetland Independence from Scotland red herring ........

Toepoke Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Thought he did ok too. Nice to see a different SNP face for a change. Actually I thought all the panel were ok (although as mentioned Massie was poorer than usual) normally half those involved have me reaching for the remote...

Flora MaDonald Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Don't know if anyone looks at the texts while the show is on (page 155 - Teletext), but the sheer vitorol from English folk last night was astounding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomtscotland Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I though Nicholson did well enough - though he was kinda gulping in air at times. I appreciate it must be difficult to think on your feet and always give sharp answers but there are always obvious and repeat type questions that can be prepared for. When it was suggest that it was not right that Scotland should have some kind of veto should the UK vote to leave E.U. then it could easily have been pointed out that it was possible that only England might vote to leave E.U. and the other 3 countries might be taken out as a consequence.

weekevie04 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I'll watch it tomorrow, but I've been impressed with Nicholson (A bheil Gàidhlig aig Iain?) He certainly sounds it, yet apparently he's a Weegie. Always find Riddoch and Massie pretty good in different ways. Davidson started off quite good, but has turned into a wee shitebag recently with her constant sniping. No Lib Dem? Shock a roonie. Nae Cockburn either? Or Farage? Whit? I fought this woz kwestian time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you watch it, ye willnae be Kev. Missed easy opportunities to score against Falconer (which Davidson stepped in and took). A culture secretary that doesn't know if Scotland are playing Qatar home or away (fitba is a big part of Scottish culture, no?). Then comments about Sepp "Platter". 5/10.

Now we know who the unnamed Tartan Army member who talked to the Record is. Anyway, I'm not bothered if Nicolson knows anything about Football or not as sport is devolved. The important part of his brief is Media which is reserved and which will be an important issue in this parliament, especially where the future of the BBC is concerned.
