I’ve set up my landline phone so that nuisance callers have to say who they are before getting through. They don’t seem bother any more. It’s great.
However, nuisance callers remain a problem for those who follow the news. You could easily click on the above and be rewarded with an all-too-predictable line from the Scottish Conservatives.
You can see why the headline doesn’t mention them. Even the foolhardy would know not to follow through with a click.
I guess most of us know what to expect now and are not tempted but they’re still at it today, as they have been for years:
Guess who? Yes, it was Jackson Carlaw. Just him. No one worth bothering about.
Is it a form of anti-advertising. Do the Scottish Tories have to pay a fee to not get a mention in the headline?
And they’re still at:
‘Calls?’ Two? Nope, just the Scottish Tories, yesterday so that should be ‘amid no calls today.’
Talking-up Scotland 
John, I think the tories have lost all pretence about NS and will blame her for everything and as the election gets nearer it will get worse.
About the bbc I don’t know if you have seen this but it would it would be great if they did the same regarding Sarah Smith and not just a correction from her on Twitter.

The way i handle nuisance callers if i can identify is as follows
I answer by saying Sgt.Smith here, Fauldhouse Madhouse
How may i be of assistance
Result Stunned silence
But in the event that i cannot identify
I answer by simple hello
And ask them to reveal themselves
If and when they do i ask as to what purpose they are calling
Then i ask to whom do they wish to speak
If they ask for myself by inference in any capacity
I reply that unfortunately the person you wish to speak has taken temporarily leave of their senses and currently in a straight jacket
And muzzled
But should the situation ever improve you are
Most welcome to endeavour again

Alex Salmond should start up a Party . If he can be bothered. There is a need for another. To harvest the votes.

I’ve just finished watching Margaret Mitchell’s ‘performance’.
She didn’t ask questions, it was a party political broadcast aimed at undermining ScotGov and promoting the Yoonyun. Eventually, the Convenor had to shut her up and point out that she hadn’t posed a discernible question! What a disgrace,

Pertinent questions. Why arbitration wasn’t used as per usual? Save time, space and monies. Follow the guidelines. Save a lot of hassle.
