Malcolm Offord downplaying dodgy comments by Reform Holyrood candidates as 'fruity' on Radio Scotland. Also as things from a 'past life' that apparently don't count....

A grooming gangs inquiry has been needed for a long time, thankfully announced today. But the idea that this isn’t a u-turn is nonsense. ScotGov completely opposed to this just 3months ago, until brave survivors like @IamTaylor96 and @HollyAlex_ITYC spoke out. Well done ladies.

FM: “The point the Lord Adv made yesterday is the minute the indictment is served on the accused it becomes a public document, because it can be made public as a consequence of that.”
Crown last week: "The indictment is not a public document until it is presented in open court."

@DMScotPol it’s here about the trial date 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

BREAKING: John Swinney was also tipped-off by the Lord Advocate a month ago that any trial of Nicola Sturgeon’s estranged husband was not expected until 2027. Labour MSP Michael Marra:"This information gives clear political advantage to the First Minister" thescottishsun.co.uk/news/15939249/…

This is poor, even for The National.
Peter Murrell hasn't entered his pleas yet.
There is no certainty a trial will take place.

BREAKING: Peter Murrell is expected to stand trial in March 2027, an unredacted memo sent to the First Minister has revealed

@joannaccherry Lord Advocate, Lord President... Lord knows, right?

This is shocking from a government minister. She is not head of the independent judiciary. The nature of the potential conflict is different in that she is both a government law officer and head of the prosecution service. This should be basic knowledge.
Ian Murray MP@IanMurrayMP
Another strong reason why the Lord Advocate should not sit in cabinet as a political appointee and also be head of the independent judiciary.

Lord Advocate email to FM about Peter Murrell case to be discussed in Holyrood later

Very confident performance from the Robo-John 3000 there
@GinaDavidson@ginadavidsonlbc
NEW: John Swinney point blank refusing to answer questions about why the Lord Advocate wrote to him with details of the indictment of Peter Murrell a month before the details were made public. Urgent question on this has been asked for by Scottish Conservatives today. @LBCNews
English
One of the many times it was made clear that Lord Advocate not involved in Operation Branchform. No need for her to tell the FM yet again.
And no obvious reason for her to mention the alleged sum involved in order to make her other points
English
Crown Office line about Lord Advocate memo to FM on Peter Murrell being 'to ensure it was understood she was not involved in the case' won't wash.
1. That had been stated publicly many times already
2. Why this case? Are we to believe she updates FM on all indictments?

@GlasgowAdvocate @COPFS The alleged victim was a registered political party with a chief executive and treasurer, not the government

While serving as an MP on three occasions I was the victim in prosecutions of men who had threatened me with violence and rape. I didn’t get any personal updates from the law officers nor would I have expected to. I often had to chase the PF to find out what was happening.

This is shocking and disgusting. The agency which took it on should be hauled before a select committee to explain themselves…

The group that helped to get Sir Keir Starmer elected as Labour leader hired lobbyists to investigate the personal, political and religious background of a Sunday Times journalist behind an article about secret donations that funded its work. Labour Together paid £36,000 to Apco, a US public affairs firm, to examine the “backgrounds and motivations” of reporters behind a story before the general election. The aim was to discredit The Sunday Times’s reporting by falsely suggesting its journalists might be part of a Russian conspiracy or had relied on emails hacked by the Kremlin. Apco produced a 58-page report including almost ten pages of deeply personal and false claims about Gabriel Pogrund, the Sunday Times Whitehall editor. He and Harry Yorke, the newspaper’s deputy political editor, were named as “persons of significant interest”.
