Thanks. This is interesting.

Hmmmm.. the recent supreme court judgement on the advisory referendum rather suggests they are cretins. The Lord Advocate's submission was an embarrassment to the legal profession.
The Scottish GR legislation seems to me to have been badly drafted in a strictly legal sense in terms of the Scotland Act and the Equalities Act. For SNP MSPs to vote against their own legislation is a novel experience. The rush to get this bill through before Ms Forbes comes back from her maternity leave is telling.
