Scotland's current attempt to destroy the rule of law - a warning to all petty states and pushy princelettes

 

The Scottish government’s attempt to undermine judicial independence, and thereby abolish the rule of law, is deeply concerning – apparently to the judiciary too, and they should know!

 

We are heading for an Orban-style state in which pointless triumphalism, unfounded victimism and endless scams to “disappear” taxpayers’ cash is a substitute for good government.

 

Yousaf should mind his step or there’ll be tears before bedtime, as described here: https://thinkscotland.org/2023/12/learning-at-the-feet-of-erdogan-and-putin-humzas-abolition-of-judicial-independence/

 

Enjoy – but ponder too!
