I just knew it. That former nurse Jeane Freeman’s lack of experience in bean-counting means she has gone too far in trying to save lives. She means well.
Anyhow, here’s a sneak preview of tonight’s BBC Scotland Disclosure: ‘Does Scotland need a bit of English Cavalier Spirit to survive in the modern world?’
Jackson Carlaw: ‘Would you buy a car from that wee lassie in chage of the budget now?’
George Foulkes: ‘The SNP are saving lives and they’re doing it on purpose!’
Willie Rennie: ‘I know at least two old folk whose lives were not saved. What about them eh? Eh?’
Monica Lennon: ‘There are fewer empty intensive care beds in poorer areas. What will the minister do about this?’
Miles Briggs: ‘We Tories care more about people than money so I forgive the SNP. No wait…what do I think?’
Gordon Brown: ‘Gordon help…Gordon intervene…Gordon…..’
Boris Johnson: ‘Haw haw…SNP spaffing millions up the wall!’
Dominic Raab: ‘We’ll have those beds! Greater need and all that, what?’

Talking-up Scotland 
Jeane Freeman seems to be be the best performing minister in Scotland – she has responded really well to all problems that I’m aware of – in particular meeting with McCaskill on care home problems, it’s her that he praises for a good response anyway. I would actually be glad if she was in charge of coordinating the epidemic response, she seems willing the listen to reason. So of course she’s open to more criticism from British nationalists, can’t have us deviating from the great British cull, can we.
GMS, now call Kaye, is busy restoring Bitter Together by ‘investigating’ the Great British PPE Supply Scandal – oh! Tis not true! Can’t bee! No no nothing to see here look squirrels!

According to J Carlaw this was said on GMS regarding PPE,as I did not listen to the program I can’t verify.
I have just heard Professor Jason Leitch, the Scottish Government’s Clinical Director dismiss this story as “rubbish” on BBC Good Morning Scotland.

Jason Leitch said it wasn’t True. However he spelt out that it wasn’t true (that English suppliers were refusing to supply Scotland with PPE) for Scotland’s NHS and Council run care homes.
However he did say it was a different story for the private care industry. This was not elaborated on.

Call KayE: immediately after Prof. Jason Leitch Kaye brings on GP Sandesh Gulhaney.
KayE: Jason Leitch claims Supplies of PPE are getting through.
Sandesh: No, supplies might be better but the problem with PPE is the quality, disposable gowns are having to be re-used, sometimes “they” don’t have eye protection.
Scotland’s Clinical Director must have been barely out of the studio before KayE set about undermining his message.

Quite frankly I have got passed the absolute rage that I have for the BBC (and not just Scotland) but the whole organisation and it saddens me that in all my 70 years I have allowed myself to be duped by these shysters that in an earlier life I regarded as above reproach. Nothing will surpass the feeling of absolute loathing I felt in 2014 it is just now a fact of life, a burden that I have to bear but what keeps me motivated is that I can look forward to our sweet moment of revenge once we are Independent.

Oooo. After BBC radio Scotland repeatedly telling us that there is no issue with English suppliers supplying English care homes first as priority, it wasn’t true, honest they tell us, we have Nicola Sturgeon saying the scotgov are going to investigate, and our health secretary is going to talk to their health secretary and sort it out – not quite the ‘not true’ message radio Scotland has been telling me 🙂
