Nellie The Don

Fair enough. I get that the average punter might not know exactly where the boundaries of their property are. I'd expect that it should be fairly standard that it would at very least ring a bell with a councillor that a project bordering their property may involve a conflict of interest, and it should be checked out before any approvals go ahead. As for him having no part in the decision, the P&J version of the story seems to suggest something quite different. https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/aberdeen/1229641/pay-200000-fix-council-bosss-boundary-wall/

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-39717220 How is it possible that a council member would have to consult with a solicitor in order to find out whether they owned a piece of land that was subject to council funding? Is it really possible that there's an innocent explanation for any of this? Maybe someone more knowledgeable about council proceeding can shed some light, because I surely can't think of one. Thoughts?

Motherwell now got a goal difference 6 worse than anyone else in the league. I'd absolutely piss myself if they got relegated on goal difference.

In fairness to McFadden he's just doing what McGhee should have been doing in his interview, and making the story about something other than his teams terrible performance.

Haha. Total shite. If Barry McKay is worth £6M, then Johnny Hayes is worth at least £8M.

Yaaaaaaas! Welcome (back) all. This is much better.

Be prepared for electronic toilets, with many many buttons and no helpful hints as to which one is 'flush'.

For what it's worth, Richard Lochhead is definitely a dandy. I've spotted him in the crowd several times.

What's the score?

Thanks. That sort of thing would be game over for a politician here, but I think rocket touched on an important point when he said that analysts weren't picking up on it. It'll only harm him if the media pick up on it and press the point.

I would probably vote for Jill Stein if I had a vote. Given she's only polling around 5%, it'd do fuck all good, though. You're right about 'both' candidates being fucking cretins. Any systems that offers those as the only viable options is truly fucked.

What gives? It was a simple question. I really am interested in what you were saying. Feel free to dial down the hostility.

Thus is the Internet. I'm asking you because I know you know and I want to find out more about your opinion of why it will damage him.

What was the context of the quote?

And Mark Hateley ended Michael Watt's.

Fuck me. Do you ever get tired of the sound of your own voice? It's a real shame that your occasional gems of wisdom and insight get drowned out by such an avalanche of self indulgent derivative pish.
