@MrDickWarrior Yes Clearly. I wonder is it possible for you to say anything without adding an enormous serving of hyperbole?

[MrDickWarrior]

@N330AA

In England Terrorists walk the streets as a result of Westminster incompetence. The so called Lockerbie bomber was deported, or did that slip your mind? I hardly think releasing the Lockerbie bomber was sucking up to the Americans.

I think when Scotland becomes independent England should become a US state. Clearly Westminster follows their orders so why not go the full hog.

[N330AA]

@MrDickWarrior Well, obviously not because as you say in your own words terrorists are walking the streets. You clearly have a problem with that but you don't have a serious problem with Scotland releasing the Lockerbie Bomber.

[MrDickWarrior]

@N330AA

If thats the best you can come up with, Scotland must be doing ok.



[N330AA]

@MrDickWarrior Well if Scotland stopped releasing terrorists from prison maybe they wouldn't be.

[MrDickWarrior]

@N330AA If you want another example of Westminster kissing the backside of the US look at the news today; Christopher Tappin being extradited to the US for selling batteries whilst terrorists walk our streets.

[MrDickWarrior]

@N330AA There is no perfect judicial system in the world. When you look at the Stephen Lawrence case, the Birmingham six or even sentencing for the English riots however it is clear to see that something is seriously wrong. I’m sure miscarriages of justice happen in Scotland as they do everywhere. The difference is in Scotland we have little in the way of political interference and the corrupt police which are so prevalent in England.

You are quick to stand up foryour party leader.

[N330AA]

@MrDickWarrior " In any case it is an issue for the Scottish judicial system which when compared to England’s I would say is excellent." Do you have anything to substantiate this? Inevitably not, facts aren't prerequisites with you. Evidently the Scottish judicial system isn't excellent, and no matter how respected or not Mandela is, it's not his job.

And where have i stood up for the Conservatives?

[MrDickWarrior]

@N330AA Tony Blair was considering instigating a fresh look at the case because many people had doubts. Nelson Mandela is one of the most respected politicians in the world, he wouldn’t put his name to something unless he was certain of it. In any case it is an issue for the Scottish judicial system which when compared to England’s I would say is excellent.

It doesn’t surprise me you’re standing up for the Conservatives again.

[N330AA]

@MrDickWarrior Sorry i didn't realise Nelson Mandela was the Scottish justice minister. If he was innocent you reopen the case - otherwise you undermine the whole legal system. If he wasn't innocent he deserves no compassion. Releasing someone on a hunch is ridiculously unprofessional and insulting to the families of the survivors.

It was the 2 Labour leading Scots Brown and Blair that got into bed with Gaddafi for arms deals not oil. Cameron put him in his place however.
