FERRY FIASCO: Deputy First Minister quizzed on harm of £30m cut to ferry infrastructure
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
- The Deputy First Minister, Shona Robison, was pushed on the 'reprofiling' or cut to CMAL's budget.
The convenor of the Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee, Edward Mountain, asked Ms Robison 'If the Caledonian Maritime Assets Ltd-CMAL-budget has gone down by 31 per cent, or has been “reprofiled”, which is a £30 million loss to its budget, that will have no impact on when the small vessels come into service'
Mr Mountain's final question was 'As part of reprofiling the small ferries project, CMAL’s voted loans budget will be cut by 31 per cent or £30 million. What effect will that have on the harbour works that need to be undertaken to ensure that the very ferries that we have talked about being so delayed are actually capable of coming into service?'
Ms Robison said the Scotish government was commited to to funding port infrastructure with an investment plan of £580m.

Utter Gibberish!, the woman hasn’t a clue what she’s talking about! She should not be in a post of such importance maybe on the reception desk at Hollywood.
She would not be capable.
She'd have to speak clearly and with more eloquence, so she's not even in the running go that's job.
She toil for a job in McDonald’s 😡😡😡
Perhaps she could be used as THE desk ……she’s so wooden .
It’s not only Humzy that’s winging it, this woman is a perfect example of somebody totally out of their depth, and knows it.
Does she 'know it'? Do any of them 'know it'? Do the people who vote for them 'know it'? Scotland has been wrecked by people like her.
Who’s person beggars belief not a clue and this person is a minister reading from a script come on people these eejits need to go and to jail
You heard it. This s the plan, the plan😂
omg how embarrassing
She can’t even look up when she’s telling lies.just get them out. If it was a real job that they had they would have been fired by now
But if they had to be interviewed for that particular job, would never have made it past the first screening process.
Straight out of the Sturgeon word salad bowl.
They use the same snivel serpent script writer .
What an embarrassment this woman is - Heaven help us!
This woman is not capable of running a cafe on a ferry, far less a ferry, far less a ferry company, but (as she would say 'there are ifs and buts) she is responsible for Scotland's budget and deputy first minister.
In any other walk of the private sector life they would not only be fired, they'd most likely be facing a criminal investigation.
That my friend is on the horizon, have no fear Sturgeon's deck of cards is about to collapse!!
Edward Mountain is in a completely superior league compared to the inept Robison.
Him or Craig hoy should be leader of the party
Jesus this woman has no idea what's she talking about 😅😅1
I want independence, but as long as these headbangers are in power I will always vote no.
The SNP are the worst thing that’s ever happened to our country.
Snap...what happens when you let Globalists,Gay Rights activists and Irish Republicans take control of the independence Party!
@bobdidit55
Eh?
I don't get your logic, after a vote for Independence SNP would not win an election because people in an independent country won't vote for an independence party. But I take your point the current inept leadership should be making a vote for indy to happen.
@@jimperston2921 All Parties would have to dissolve on indy being achieved, personally, I'd ban all former politicians from standing, so ax our newly free country isn't tainted by the corrupt, from the past...I'd also make WEF/WHO/UN membership illegal!
@@williamrae9954 all parties do not have to dissolve. As for banning former politicians, it is for the electorate to decide who they want to vote for.
Eloquent speaker Er em er em, how do SNP ministers say so much but actually tell you nothing
I was wondering the same thing myself.
The problem is ….she is reading most of it .
not the brightest that ain......what an absolute embarrassment to Scotland....no eye contact....making it up as she goes along...
She's reading from a script, with obvious ommissions, so she can insert her own banal waffle.
Once again a pre-prepared civil servant script , it's absolutely bleedin' ridiculous, she is so out of her depth. Would she also need to refer to notes if someone asked her how the Alps were
at Xmas.
Robison is unbelievably inept in her role. How anyone can have confidence in this unqualified woman is a mystery. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
she couldn't run a kebab shop which is probably where useless yousaf found her.
Her answer to the Alps question - “Eh”.
Absolutely ridiculous how in hell is that woman in office it’s so bad she can’t give a bloody answer has to read of a written reply how bad is this in hawks name she is useless reading it that is so bad get these idiots out of
She looks scared. I think even she knows she is well out of her depth. Trouble is there isn't anyone in the SNP that would be any better. They are all inept.
She has not got a clue what she is talking about she is reading what she has been told to say she has not got a single fact that will give us any hope of the boats being built on time and on budget
Why is this woman running Scotland's finances, she's not capable of running a jumble sale. She's barely the full shilling! She's way out of her depth
….but she’s a very good friend of the former First Minister . …..that’s why she’s there
Car crash
She is so out of her Depth, its painful to watch her; like a child lying
What a load of tosh, no work has been started to the docks in Ardrossan, typical snp, useless, utterly useless!
SNP failures coming to light daily. God help you Scotland 🏴
Thank you, but we are beyond help. What you see and hear here is la creme de la creme of the SNP government of Scotland
she really speaks in circles why is she Deputy First Minister she has just went around and around in circles there ,
Unfortunately she's not got a clue. It's all waffle.
"Deputy First Minister" ?? What an AIRHEAD. We'd be better off with Deputy Dawg.
Their real failure is that they haven't engineered a way out of the Union and escape the terminal decline of the UK.
Gobbledegook! The money has gone. The ferries, if they get built, will have nowhere to dock. All she has done is to lay down the reasons and coming excuses that they are going to give for what is going to be yet another SNP failure.
This woman should be forced to resign, totally out of her depth.
ifs & buts, errrm, errrm, 🤥 shocking 😳 I wouldn’t want her in charge of my household budget 🤷♂️
She's Head of Finance...I wouldn't trust her with my pocket money 😂😂
or my empty piggy bank bloody awful
Every photograph of her, no matter where she is, or what she is doing. the eyes give it away. "The Light Are On, But There Is No One At Home."
That's actually a compliment.
….but this woman has a university degree . Scotland education has certainly gone downhill .
Not sure the electricity is connected.
@@mrdunns3338 You are correct. She was supposed to run on Duel Fuel. Oxygen, and 4 D Cell Batteries up her arse. They had to remove the batterie when they realised she needed her arse to talk out of.
@@georgemorrison9280naw she leaned against a wall at university that’s the only degree she got
Can't quite place why but why don't I think she knows what she's talking about!
She’s a flat-earther
Definitely as the rest of the Theifs watched them at farmers inquiry how times they were asked were the money what bank I was waiting for them to say ours meaning personal bank anybody else's had even tried to steal government money they would be locked up and the key thrown away
Why has the SNP got 10 gagging orders regarding these ferries,why won't they release the report just done by Levon,at a cost of over £500,000,about 802,this is a shambles,but HOW THE F### is it allowed to continue.
Agree going to ask the Secretary of State that question
you are spot on shambles
Again, another unless showing by Deputy First Minister. Unbelievable SNP again. Hope she's out of a job very soon
We hope so
Crazy how someone can use so many words but not actually say anything.
She only looks up very occasionally, spends the rest of her time blaming everything on everything else. Very depressing
She has not got a clue ...just listen to her talking a load of crap ..stutter..stutter...stutter...
😂😂😂 buy one ferry pay for three 😂😂😂 SNP ECONOMICS INSANITY 😂😂😂
Does this mean the ferries are still afloat?
@@oldfordconsul
You wouldn't feel confident that it wasn't going to sink.
@@oldfordconsul
Remember the "Herald of Free Enterprise?"
Didn't that go down because the doors hadn't been closed properly?
And now imagine a crew of "Diversity Hires" in charge.
Personally, I have no intention of ever stepping onboard those imaginary ferries. You couldn't even pay me to
What a mess the SNP is,,,
Absolutely, but the biggest mess can be seen in the destruction of what was once a special country - Scotland.
Its patently obvious now that she was appointed solely for the purpose of making Yousless look 'good'....
That eh is the plan eh comedy gold she has not got a clue could not run a bath 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
what a lot of waffle from someone who is obviously way out of her depth and has not got a clue, about what she is talking about
Dreadful snp can’t push a sentence out embarrassing 😳🇬🇧
What an unimpressive politician
We remain commited, to what ,running scotland into the ground ,yes your SNP government are certainly doing that
People are voting for this lot ! I counted around 42 eh’s and em’s.
You can tell from the way she is answering that she doesn’t have a clue about the subject under discussion.
I love the notion that these now legendary ferries can still be called 'new.'
The only ferries that will be obsolete before they sail .
@@georgemorrison9280
She struggles to look her questioner in the eye; I suspect there's a lot more ferry fireworks to come.
like a child trying to explain that the dog ate her homework, who appoints these incompetents?
…..but she’s the best they’ve got in terms of finance .
This woman has not got a bloody clue
Will she ever stop saying, “You know”?🤣
Her performance doesn't fill me with confidence that she is comfortable in her role. Never mind, she can always blame Westminster.
That’s the Deputy First Minister too! God help us!
I know, it makes us seems like all Scots are gimps
If ifs and buts and ems and ehs were nuts and bolts she could have built the boats herself.
Klunk out of Stop the Pigeon could have explained this better.😂😂😂😂😂
They are always saying we are committed to this and committed to that but they are not committed to the people of Scotland all I can say is I’m definitely not committed to voting for the SNP
Or prison.
Wow how do these people get elected, she hasn’t a clue, same when in health. You are wasting our money not yours! It’s ok, just keep raising taxes so us who really work can pay for your SNP mismanagement.
There are politicians and there are excuses for politicians but this deputy first minister is beyond excuses. She is totally and utterly incompetent.
It has become utter ridiculous, she has no idea at all
Get them out
If,s and but,s I will waste your money all day every day because I don't have a clue.
Here is the epitome of why Scotland is in the advanced mess it is in.
SNP 😂😂😂😂😂
If that was a job interview,she would have been thrown out the door after two sentences,so embarrassing listening to her,she must make waffles in her other job,o load of tosh
She just got handed these notes 10 minutes beforehand .deputy dopey
She's been working on these for weeks, probably had to phonetically sound out the words with more than 2 syllable?
Her middle name isn’t Articulate 😂
A child at scool would fail a exam if they spoke as much rubbish. She not got a clue.
Would have been cheaper to forget about ferries and just buy everybody in Scotland a shovel and dig tunnels out to the islands.
It's like listening to a female joe biden
Turn to page 4 - then 5 - then 6........... 😮
An embarrassment to scotland this woman completely out of her depth.
and this year's prize for 'Tosh and Waffle' goes to...
Incompetence at its finest.!!!
This had to stop. People cannot put up with it any longer.....these people are utterly inept.
Waffle
Totally out of her depth! What a bunch of utter rubbish...🙄
Non and I mean, Non of the SNP representatives ca from a paper perform under questioning without reading the answers from their prompting sheet always provided (by the puppet master I assume)
Does this woman have a clue about what she"s talking about? The blind leading the blind.
No such thing as public money, it is taxpayer's money.
Err,Emm Err,Emm Conclusion I don`t have a clue even with crossed fingers .
Could you answer it in English now ?
How LONG ARE THEY OVERDUE
“Challenging “ = “Total Shambles” ?
More like, "huvney a scooby".
Will the small vessels be in service before the two big ones .
Nikeliar's bestie... what did you expect???
Missed and the dog ate my homework..and Jesus wept!
She isn’t there to answer the question, she’s only there to speak.
She really is so out of her depth and totally unconvincing, how on earth did this lady get to such a position.
She ain’t no lady .
We need to see the receipts, there needs to be an audit done on where the money for the ferries has gone.
SNP ploy in all enquiries and investigations - bore the Convenor/Chair so much they lose the will and ask no further questions. Yawn!
That is the eeh plan eeh ahh eehh have umm. The profiling eeh um aye of aye, whit the umm. I'm only the Finance Minister it's no ma fault I hav'nay an fing clue.
Not human
She does not care as she fly's to go on her very expensive holidays in Chamonix so the riff raff can stuff it and just have to make do.
SNP's finest. The other clown, Blackford, spent days and many, many hours, in The House, going on and on and on about Boris having 'a drink' and 'a cake' with his team and got caught. They just lost 30M, great. If Scotland has it's own Navy, she could, would be in charge!
I’m surprised Blackford remembers Boris having a drink and cake ( unless Blackford forgot tae delete his WhatsApp messages) 😂😂😂😂
If in doubt just lie the SNP policy
That in the intension but there is a process and there will be updates, as far as I am aware, great answers straight to the point, someone has made a lot of money for very little outlay, crazy world
All the opposition parties have to do is broadcast this questioning as party political broadcasts……..SNP gone!!!!!!!!!
an empty vessel. we need proper business CEO's to run properly and also bring some accountability into play
They are experts on ‘empty vessels’ .
Not got a clue!!!!
Couldnt run a bath.
She doesn't know what she is talking about and what she is authorizing or not???
Nobody bothered to check that the port infrastructure was suitable for new vessels…the mind boggles, but I’m not surprised!!!
This is embarrassing. What has happened to my homeland? Voting them in time and again. Please stop this cycle my fellow Scots.
Talking pish.
Many many pockets have been lined off the backs of islanders!
God what a total lack of planning for something that's been known about for 9 years
What Shona means Scottish Government Interference and incompetence.
She never comes across as having a single clue what she is talking about?
