London veto will keep secrets from Scots and their government
Blair promised open government, Blair promised a freedom of information
bill, the Liberals jumped into bed with labour because they were
promised an immediate end to University fees in Scotland
and a real freedom of information bill commensurate with a modern
democracy.
Blair LIED. The Liberals have backed down. All to make WESTMINSTER happy
Now Westminster can veto the release of any document sent to the Scottish
parliament if comes from Her '*!&@@' government in London.
Freedom of speech has been suppressed in Scotland, and we'll never
find out now exactly how much we subsidise these thieving Westminster
pirates.
All Scots with a brain and a spine can see what a sham this so
called Scottish parliament is, it jigs to the strings pulled the
'Scottish Office', at Londons command
Independence. Nothing Less. Lets hope we see some backbone soon.
A London ministerial source said "Any information supplied in confidence by Her Majesty’s
Government would only be disclosed in accordance with the Freedom of Information
regime for the UK. It would be up to the department that passed it to us to decide whether to release the
information."
Note the use of the word "freedom" and "regime" in the same sentence. Blair und
Thatcher uber alles.....
