1/ While Lib Dems talk about 'authoritarianism' in context of an SNP broadcast, it's worth exposing the something a lot of people don't know about Vince Cable, their present leader....
2/ He was chief economist at Shell in the 1990s – the period during which the oil firm was famously linked to the killing of prominent Nigerian author Ken Saro-Wiwa.
3/ Saro-Wiwa was a member of the Ogoni people, an ethnic minority in Nigeria whose homeland, Ogoniland, in the Niger Delta has been targeted for crude oil extraction since the 1950s.
4/ The Centre For Consititional Rights sought to hold Shell accountable for alleged human rights violations in Nigeria, including summary execution, crimes against humanity, torture, inhumane treatment and arbitrary arrest and detention.
5/ I'm the end, Shell agreed to pay $15.5m (£9.6m) in settlement of a legal action in which it was accused of having collaborated in the execution of Saro-Wiwa and eight other leaders of the Ogoni tribe of southern Nigeria.
6/ To this day, Vince Cable - privatiser of Royal Mail and chief austerity enabler - hasn't uttered a word of criticism of Shell. Nevemind, a quirky election broadcast is the real enemy of the freedom.
7/7 So, Lib Dems, on your moral high ground today. Please, do yourself a favour and reflect on your own leader, your hypocrisy and your willingness to turn a quirky election broadcast into a point of principle, throwing real principles under the bus.

Next you will be claiming he personally signed off the murder not to mention the fact Vince couldn't prove he wasn't in Whitechapel during late 1888.

Nah a whisper about Labour's leader in bed with all sorts of dodgy types and his henchman threatening to lynch opponents.

Scottish ministers are currently accusing UK ministers precisely of undermining Holyrood by centralising control in London over EU powers that are currently overseen by devolved governments.

That position was supported in an overwhelming vote in Holyrood on Thursday, when Scottish Labour, the Scottish Lib Dems and the Scottish Green party backed Sturgeon’s government by 86 votes to 27 opposition votes from the Scottish Tories.

The emergency bill will now be fast-tracked through Holyrood over the next three weeks unless the UK, Scottish and Welsh governments strike a deal over how they share out the EU powers at the centre of the dispute.

Sir Vince Cable claims there could be a wave of defections this autumn if the Labour Party adopts new rule changes that will make it easier to deselect sitting MPs. The Liberal Democrat leader made the warning as he revealed that his party has been holding informal talks with a “surprisingly large number” of disaffected Labour MPs.
