Crap Holyrood Chat: July 2008
http://crapholyroodchat.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Monday, 28 July 2008. Wendy Alexander - Hungry Caterpillar. It doesn't really matter what the context this, but this faithful quote alone is enough for Wendy Alexander to find herself added to the Crap Holyrood Chat vaults. On Saturday he ate through one piece of chocolate cake, one ice-cream cone, one pickle, one slice of Swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake, and one slice of watermelon.". Links to this post. Wednesday, 23 July 2008. This is ...

Jim Millar: September 2009
http://jimmillar.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Councillor for Arbroath East and Lunan. Wednesday, 23 September 2009. Tesco Discriminates Against Jedi. I read this in the Guardian when I was in Paris (will blog about that later), and thought it was hilarious. The Tesco response is superb. Jedi religion founder accuses Tesco of discrimination over rules on hoods. Daniel Jones says he was humiliated and victimised for his beliefs following incident at store in Wales. To remove his hood or leave a branch of the supermarket in north Wales. You have a choi...

Jim Millar: March 2009
http://jimmillar.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Councillor for Arbroath East and Lunan. Tuesday, 24 March 2009. How Local Govt Communicates. I got a rather cryptic phone call the other night. It was from someone asking about a Socialist rally in Arbroath, and did I know any of the details about it. Somewhat perplexed as to why someone would phone a Tory councillor about a Socialist rally, I politely asked who was calling. It turned out that it was a 'PR Consultant' for the council who had been asked to call me for details. Sunday, 22 March 2009. I've ...

Jim Millar: Statement By Anne Moffat..............
http://jimmillar.blogspot.com/2010/03/statement-by-anne-moffat.html
Councillor for Arbroath East and Lunan. Tuesday, 23 March 2010. Statement By Anne Moffat. This statement has just been released by Anne Moffat. I wonder how long it will take the First Minister to slip any of this into his response at FMQ's? I am deeply saddened that my service to East Lothian Constituency has come to an end in such distressing and appalling circumstances. Unbelievably, at the time of this press release I have yet to be formally notified of the NEC decision. Hello and welcome to my blog.

Jim Millar: April 2010
http://jimmillar.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Councillor for Arbroath East and Lunan. Friday, 16 April 2010. I don't think that this event was ever going to live up to the media hype that preceded it, and in the end it was something of a disappointment. Many, myself included were looking for a clear and decisive winner, but it simply didn’t happen. The event also failed to deliver the kind of political ‘cut and thrust’ of PMQ’s that many members of the public might have expected. For all the great sense of anticipation, the idea that history was in ...

Jim Millar: February 2010
http://jimmillar.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Councillor for Arbroath East and Lunan. Saturday, 27 February 2010. I wonder if spoof political posters will be the hallmark of this election? HT to My Labour Poster. Wednesday, 24 February 2010. I'm not going to go into the nuts and bolts of the Nicola Sturgeon's statement. I never thought this was a resigning issue, but it did underline the apparent emnity between Labour and the SNP. Back to the drawing board for Labour I think, but we may see more scalp hunting in the not too distant future. Ms Cowley...
