Why call it misleading call it what it is lying
SNP lying again and getting away with it.
The phrase "This is beyond a joke" would apply normally.
But regarding the lies the SNP gets away with is beyond even beyond a joke...and we're paying their wages (well some of us)
That's actually a green that props up the snp.
Come on, you didn't honestly expect anything else from this lot.
Mislead Parliament ??? Lying more like !!!
They're not allowed to call each other liars.....One of the parliamentary rules.....Mislead means Lie, under that roof.
Time for a new speaker. A speaker/presiding officer should be impartial
The Presiding Officers are consistently ineffective and their incompetence has played a considerable role in diminishing the effectiveness of the Scottish Parliament.

@@dunkirk1581 maybe, but this one supports the SNP.

Good question and point raised. Scottish SNP / Green Ministers were knowingly using a false quote.
The greens need to be voted out
Like " £350million PER WEEK for the NHS " ?
Like that ?
@@gordonbradley3241 In fairness alot more then 350 has been given to the NHS. It's virtually bankrupting us.
@@kincaidwolf5184
The bus said " "350million PER WEEK " !
And vast NHS funds go to private companies owned by Tories for them to profiteer !
Get them out and costs would reduce sharply !
@@gordonbradley3241 Actually the companies were owned by cronies of the Labour PM Tony Blair, who is himself a Scot - as was his chancellor of the exchequer then PM Gordon Brown. And it was Tony Blair who forced the NHS to sign up to these companies. It was public knowledge when it happened and it's certainly been publicised since then, I've even heard/read about it and I don't even live in the UK.
Corrupt to the core and getting away with it .
Yes Westminster is a disgusting institution
@@f.mitchell5247 agreed but at least they're accountable holyrood is Corrupt.
Unbelievable that the Presiding Officer is apparently reluctant to publicly hold the government to account, instead deflecting the issue towards the existing channels of complaint. Where is her outrage at being misled, where is her care for the dignity of her office being so disrespected?
I can't be alone in thinking that she's covering for these wilfull misleadings of parliament, why else won't she reprimand ministers and demand accountability from the chair?
She's a Scot Green... Nuff said?
🇬🇧
She is most definitely part of the corrupt problem.
She is in wee nippys pocket , jobs for the boys (girls) comes to mind
@@gmesuk61 That's too gender specific... what about the other self identification options?
No change there,,, they seem biased
Alison Johnstone Presiding Officer. Green party member prior to picking up this very lucrative post. The Greens now support (prop up) the Natz, that's why she didn't censure the Natz.
She never does censure the Nats she makes a joke of Holyrood, it’s like kids playing at government while being paid to destroy Scotland.
Dissolve the Devolved it’s killing Scotland under this rogue SNP
Johnstone is a waste of space, and every time Sturgeon visits the bog she is there with a toilet roll !
She is totally ineffective and one of many presiding officers who are as much to blame as anyone for the incompetence and shambles that is the Scottish Parliament
" I thank you for your question, but far from being impartial I am wholly captured by the corrupt SNP"...move along, nothing to see here.
The greens need to be voted out.
@@stephencollins9062 where they even voted in?
@@laineyh6518 excellent question
@@stephencollins9062 I think Lorna came in third in her constituency and Labour second but Labour didn’t get through but third place Lorna did go figure and now she’s a minister.
snp/greens could not run a woodpeckers picnic in a forest.
This lady. Lorna Slater is a chancer & a wages thief. Who seems to have landed very lucky indeed. In my opinion. But then again the Scottish government? Is jam packed with these kind of people.
She said she would rather be in the pub or in bed ,,than in the parliament.... She's a chancer , as is her sidekick in the greens , Patrick Harvie,,,wonder when he will be found out 😱😱
When in doubt, lie, double down is the way of those in power in Scotland.
None of them will acknowledge any wrongdoing, they will get a big fat payoff and a lifelong index linked pension I assume but I don’t know for sure.
She may have recognised the problem and explained how liars may correct their lie, but should the liars be pulled up for lying to the house. It seems it is left to the liars discretion whether they correct the lie or not. Ministers who continue to lie to the house must be sacked.
That means sacking the whole SNP corrupted minsters.
Good point
This 'speaker' is nothing more than a deflecting shield for the SNP...
Absolutely spot on so pleased someone els has noticed what I’ve been saying.
Dry your eyes yoons. The yoonion is finished us real Scot’s say it is so.
The Presiding officer has not a bone of power in this, and does not seem to want to do anything, the ruling does not get the minister to return to explain themselves...why not?
She is a Scottish Green so it's not like she's impartial
So that's how the snp get away with it every single time.
Holyrood's presiding officer lets them.
Refuses to punish them and to hold them to parliamentary rules.
It is stated that the SNP MSP’s are not allowed to disagree with the SNP, if they do they have a choice either resign or sacked. This is what happened over that SNP woman who objected to the Gender recognition bill. In other words shut up or loose your job!
It is different in Westminster but Westminster rules in this case should be adopted in Scottish parliament as all of them are just yes men!
@@janecooke9151 I should've clarified and meant Scottish parliamentary rules.
Just as an aside; what a shoddy and tacky design for a parliamentary debating chamber.
It looks like a fourth year woodwork project, designed by a drunken ex-Ikea worker who had left the company " under a cloud ".
Hideous!
Does the speaker not have the power to have this breach investigated as I thought misleading parliament is a serious issue but it doesn’t seam like it with her response.
She won't she is an SNP
I thought the role should be inpartial
They didn't abide by the code when awarding the ferry contract. The saying 'That ship has sailed' seems somewhat ironic.
That taking the pi@@ out of the=people of Scotland more particularly the Islands to them their a joke the SNP are a spite filled party who are probably annoyed the Islands spoke up and wanted independence from the SNP who can blame them.
That what many many Scots want too.
"All lies and jest
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest".
The Boxer Simon and Garfunkel. This is what the SNP supporters hear and believe from the lies by the SNP.
Yes we all know about the minister code goes!!! Remember you found nippy guilty for misleading the parliament!! Call your mate nippy for that judges name from Dublin who let her off!!
James Hamilton QC came up with a report that.....in his opinion......Sturgeon did not break the ministerial code. However he added that it was up to the Scottish Parliament to decide if she had actually mislead Parliament. The Holyrood investigation committee that Sturgeon appeared in front of, and was questioned by, found by a majority verdict that Sturgeon had mislead Parliament. So why is the lying biiitch still in office and continuing to lie every day and disgracing Scotland.
What, a judge from here let her off!!!!!!!!!!!! Who the h*ll was that then?
@@musicandbooklover-p2o when Nicola Sturgeon was found guilty of misleading parliament in Scotland.. she was found out not guilty… but I separate enquiry one judge from Dublin ruled it off… last comment
The same chair who changed the subject when told in law if a member leaves the union the assets would be divided by the remaining members of the union in 2014 it's pantomime.
The SNP have been organising some internal coursing it would seem….. I’m surprised Sturgeon has the time considering the galavanting and posturing she has to be doing.
The SNP and the greens getting caught out again!
They are getting away with everything, they are brilliant at it.
This Presiding Officer is totally outside her depth. She hasn't the intelligence to hold her paymasters to account.
Po is a waste of space
Close them use the money to do something useful
I love it how the UK and Scottish parliaments both seem to have an addiction to letting foreign nationals occupy positions of power. LOVE IT.
Shouldn't they if they've been elected?
@@Gambit771 it's a fair point, however I don't know why anyone would trust a Canadian to do what is best for Scotland beyond someone born and raised here. Particularly when she is a demonstrable liar.
@@Gambit771 absolutely not
@@jintyc9133 Why not?
Yeah , like all the English settlers sitting in Hollyrood.
Where's the money, Krankie?
Is sturgeon really sturgeons name , because it sounds that everything SNP come out with is BS
And very fishy
😂
I assume the presiding officer is snp?
She is a green list MSP. Funny that….
If a politician misleads deliberately or by incompetence, then they should be punished for this. I don’t think that there isn’t much of a penalty at the moment for them to be bothered. All that seems to happen at the moment is that they are called out for it. There must be a punishment to be paid for this, I suggest a large fine and a public apology.
Lift the carpet 🧹
She has a strong Scottish accent ? What with Krankie being more English than Scottish is anyone in the SNP actually natives
Yeah we'd be much better with Douglas Ross in charge eh , 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@benmacdui9328 Don't know but iam well with in my rights to dislike Krankinstien who is more English than Scottish. But you cult members ignore that 😆 🤣 😂 .When the pathetic independence vote is laughed out again decent working honest non benifits beggers will have the last 😆 🤣 😄 😂 laugh 😃
Sturgeon has stepped down , if Lorna Slater has any decency left then she will do the same
Bad news when the speaker excuses SNP LIES 🤦♂️
Presiding officer weak and ineffective.
The presiding officer is hopeless
They are asking Companies to buy a pig in a poke and 664 of the suckeres have signed up for it
A new and strong presiding officer is obviously badly needed, even desperately needed.
So how come these jokers keep getting away with their lies?
Presiding officer is not fit for purpose
Green Liar's nothing changes
She is a nationalist too
What a waste of oxygen that presiding officer is. just blowing hot air and loving the sound of her own voice
The Scottish Sun??? Scottish my arse!
The speaker is getting back handers from the snp at least that's what it sounds like
Who on earth designed that place...awful ha
Trudeau is missing you hen ...... go home.
She, he, it, is fully qualified for SNP/Green numpties
I wonder which political party the speaker aligns to, as if her bias doesn’t betray her political leanings. Disgraceful behaviour!
She is SNP
you couldn't make this up, oh yes you can, this is the SNP. If taken to task at some future date, just say I cant remember. SNAFU
The Scottish Parliament must meet in my opinion to the same standards as the UK government, I know they are not by the devolved powers but they should at least try and meet with that standard.
Whenever I watch discussions in the Scottish Assembly it seems to me that the opposition parties are far more articulate and intelligent than the party in power. Does anybody else see it this way?
Always make it up if either you don’t know or if it suits the narrative .
O Canada, glorious and free............
Waste of time SNP has consistently since they got power ignored Parliament and it's Committees for years
Scotch
The speaker 🔊
Is he mad?Abide by the rules?Is he mad?Facts,I see no facts.I see no ferries either.However unlike the PM in Westminster I assume the one in Scotland has.
Has seen what?
Brilliantly hilarious and yet so hypocritical when you consider the persistence with which his own head office at westminster clearly hold that parliament in such utter and total disdain.
Just another straw man argument to shift blame and deflect! Using your logic, any wrongdoing by the SNP/Green should be forgotten and ignored because Westminster have done the same or worse. Please justify your statement? Should a murderer be allowed, to offer as a defense, that they should be found not guilty because another murderer killed more people? Or the SNP not be investigated or questioned because Westminster have done worse? Isn't that what you're saying!
Once again highlighting SNP playing fast and loose with facts - o I forgot its the process, so no harm done then - move on and forget!!!!!
Oops again
Listening to this lot would be better than ''Yes Minister/Yes Prime Minister'' if it wasn't so tragic. Lord help Scotland if they ever get to totally run the country (I've just heard my son-in-law's aunt is desperately trying to sell up with her family [3 generations] and leave Scotland, probably for Ireland. Now I fully understand why).
Oh, and I don't know who came up with the design for that debating?? room but it looks just like our audio visual room did in my school, back in the 1970s. And the way some of them are behaving reminds me of people I knew from school as well, and that isn't meant to be a compliment.
Is this like the £350million per week for the NHS ?
No the extra 25 billion spends.
The nhs has benefitted from more than the £350 mill!
Who promised an extra £350 million a week?
@@Gambit771
" We send £350million PER WEEK " to the EU !
We could spend it on our NHS !
They painted that on the side of a BUS !
There are pictures of it all over UA-cam !
Have you been in a coma ?
@@gordonbradley3241 the word "promise" never appeared anywhere!
Lol the Scottish 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Funny how Tories have no issue with their own misleading parliament over and over again.
Risks bringing this Parliament into disrepute? Sorry too late, it IS in disrepute.
Hamilton is an obnoxious individual.
