SNP Competence, an oxymoron....

I have been watching the BBC Scottish News dance around a report that the SNP has let the Scottish Parliament's powers to vary taxes slip away.... It was as if they couldn't believe the facts, or they couldn't believe that anyone could be so stupid and that they were unable to absorb the sheer importance of the story.

Seriously, the Nats who keep harping on about greater fiscal autonomy, who want Holyrood to handle more and more of our tax and spend powers, they "forgot" to renew the tax varying powers of the Scottish Parliament.

Just.

Clean.

Forgot.



SNP Business Management in Action

What a bunch of fools. You can imagine the furore if a Labour administration had "forgotten" to renew one of the key powers of the devolved Parliament: heads must roll would be the least of it. "Perfidy" and "treason" would be called out from the highest hilltop.

Hat tip to Better Nation for the letter from Michael Moore to Alex Salmond telling him the sorry news....

"Dear Eck,
you cocked it up...

Love
Michael".
