Itv leaders debate.

Do what you usually tell others (when you actually do respond) then, Google it.

I have already suggested that and referred him to the appropriate issue of the FT but all to no avail.

Or perhaps he did and the information provided did not fit with his argument.
 
OK over to you.........proof of her saying it please................ one minor Whitehall officer trying ingratiate himself with his boss's thinking.
Unless you know better.

Why are the Foreign Office saying no memo exists?

Unlike you I haven't made any statements that she did/didn't say it. I responded to you saying that the document was false and asked you to provide proof. As usual along with most of the other nonsense you spout you are unable to back it up.
 
This is a woman that belongs to a party that agreed to accept the Scottish people's No vote for Independance only to back track in less than a week and suggest that they will have another go ignoring the democratic wishes of the Scots.
Why should anyone ever believe her or her party ever again.
 
No link then.


OK lets all calm down a bit and base this on Phil's courtroom.

We have either The Foreign Office, Nicola Sturgeon, The UK French Ambassador and the Edinburgh French Consul all telling the truth.

or

Some minor Whitehall officer telling the truth.

Who would you bet your house on?

We have a document so far and that's it

You have to prove the document and what is being said is false

You are the one making the accusations so provide the proof that you know it's false

The minor Whitehall officer.

He has nothing to gain or any axe to grind. We know the French hate us nearly as much as some Scots .:ears:

Or, everyone could accept that this will never be proven either way, and move on? DfT, you have no way of knowing if she was lying, Phil, DfT will never be able to prove it either way. This one will just go round and round!

Exactly.

I wouldn't trust her with the schools hamster!

No answer then.

Yet again.

Financial Times 11 March 2015. Financial Times 11 March 2015. Financial Times 11 March 2015. Clear enough?

Absolutely pointless entering into any further discussion with you as you constantly choose to ignore uncomfortable facts and display the blind faith of the zealot.

As to your question as to who we should believe I would suggest the answer is anyone who is unlikely to be discomforted by this story being true and anyone who might have something to gain if it were.

In other words none of the above.

Where's Doon frae the Moon getting this 'minor Whitehall officer' from?

Was the link actually read?

'The memorandum which was written by a senior British civil servant......'


I reckon this part might, just possibly, explain a lot.

'It is a common diplomatic courtesy if an ambassador to the UK visits one of the three devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland for the British Government to be given an official readout of the conversation although the SNP leader, who has only been in position since the autumn, may have been unaware of this formality.'

I'm not really sure exactly what you lot are arguing about, but of course the SNP want a tory government at Westminster. They've been using that for the last five years to sew discord and no doubt feel it's their best chance of another referendum.
 
:D Made me laugh!

I guess people have just had enough of Doon making statements without actually providing proof to back them up

Either he is doing on purpose to wind people up - wouldnt surprise me

Or he feels he doesn't need to provide the proof ?

Either way some of the statements are ridiculous and try and suggest under hand tricks from UK government and people towards Scotland which does nothing but get people's backs up

I've actually caught up a bit on the story and it does appear there are some shenanigans going on.

Oh no doubt there are games going on - expect to see many more as the campaign goes deeper

I'm sure if it's al false that Sturgeon is currently going through lawyers looking to sue the paper
 
I too want a Tory govt with a large SNP bloc. Anything to expedite our leaving the uk is ok by me.I also despise all of Scottish labour, Jim murphy in particular, so seeing him in a bad place would make me happy.

I think sturgeon said it personally
