Wendy Alexander, the disgraced Scottish Liebour leader who took an illegal donation for a Jersey businessman, has gained the support of the Scottish Conswervatives and Scottish Illiberal Dumbasscrats for a devolution review funded by the Scottish Parliament.
Alexander will be calling for a review today into devolution in general and how the Scottish Parliament’s financial accountability can be strengthened.
It’s not clear whether this is the usual Liebour tactic of getting caught doing something wrong and passing more laws to stop it happening rather than keeping their own house in order, or whether it is a genuine desire to improve the way the Scottish Parliament works and make sure that all those lovely billions they get in subsidies from the English taxpayer are spent properly and not spent on Iron Bru, whiskey and battered mars bars.
On a related note, the illegal donations that Liebour received and No Mandate Brown promised to refund will most likely end up being confiscated and paid into the Treasury instead. I guess that even Gordon the Goblin King couldn’t get away with forcing UKIP to forfeit the unlawful donation they mistakenly accepted whilst refunding what they knew was an illegal donation to the donor.

Irn Bru not Iron Bru 😉
It is spin and bullshit to deflect trouble, she is in deep trouble up here, if she goes, there will be all sorts of weird national problems, they have been discussed here already but probably of more significance the Labour party as a whole will be seriously compromised up here. There is word of the ‘champagne socialist’ element being abandonded by the ‘tradittional smelly working class’ section and a new 3rd way emerging!
Let’s hope Scotland has it’s independence by then, axel.
