    Huge thanks every one of you for this. You've brought some solace to all of us with your words and the depth of feeling you spoke them with.
    I wanted so much to join you on Saturday and eventually got to Dyce but was stranded miles away from the meeting place (i bussed out) and too late to get another bus/busses to Fraserburgh to join you all. 😢
    Was in tears then (again) and in tears again when I first watched this. But the tears are better out than in and I'm in good company at least.
    I still can't come to terms with losing Alex, and I don't know if I ever will. One thing I do know is that he was the most inspiring person I've ever known and had the pleasure of meeting and talking with - and that I'll not rest until those who played a part in trying to put him behind bars & destroying his reputation are exposed.
    RIP Alex

    A wonderful tribute to Alex Salmond, Scotland's modern day Wallace who got the equivalent fate of harassment until death, engineered by the Scots he gave careers to.
    All your guests and your chair gave wonderful input to the greatness of Alex.
    Eva's telling of her journey was very moving bringing tears to my eyes.
    Many thanks to you and every one who paid their respects to him at the roadsides on his final journey and most of all to the patriot who financed his repatriation.

How do they do it? Can't someone put a team together to think. We need to drain the swamp and put Scotland back in Hollyrood.

    Allan highlighted what more people need to know - that the civil service in Scotland is appointed and run from London, and the service they deliver is for Westminster, not Scotland. The civil service in Scotland does not serve the Scottish people. It is an insidious, behind the scenes way of influencing policy in Scotland no matter who gets elected, and rarely if ever do they act to Scotland's actual benefit because those servants are always mindful of what their true masters' wishes are, and those masters only care about the Westminster agenda..
