A Cringe-Making Admission From Holyrood.

Unsurprisingly, security at Holyrood, the Scottish Parliament, has been stepped up because of the terrorist alert. No more than one would expect in the circumstances.

While most of us in Scotland are already aware that our politicians are a pretty useless, dumb lot, even I would have thought they had enough wit to know if someone sidled up to them and stuck a bomb in their pocket.

Apparently I underestimated the brainless clowns. They are an embarrassment to us all.

Comments:
Some people would suggest that to believe something written in the Daily Record - indeed, to go on and quoite from it - is infinitely more deserving of the epithet "clown" than being an elected member of parliament. ;)
 
Thanks Alex C. You are, of course, probably correct. Never have I pretended to be anything else, unlike the elected members.
 
I didn't say they weren't clowns. No more than 50% of them anyway. Unfortunately, they tend to be the ones in power.

Democracy ain't meritocracy...
 
Thanks for that Alex C.

Nicely put. There are some good ones in there, without a doubt, but they tend not to be heard. A pity.
