    Sturgeon wasting more Scottish taxpayers money

    I enclose an article which states that the Scottish Government have been spending £750 per month on photographers.
    The article further states that the number Scottish Government ministerial cars has increased from 24 in 2010-11 to 41 in 2020-21 resulting in a cost of £7 million to the taxpayer.
    A spokesperson for the Scottish Government stated that rise in the number of chauffeur driven SG cars from 24 to 41 was to allow people carrying ministerial work to be taken in a secure environment when public transport is not available.
    What a lame excuse. There is plenty of public transport available and judging by the size of some of the MSPs signing up at Slimming World at their own expense should be a high priority. https://www.express.co.uk/news/polit...er-750-a-month

    I enclosed the article from the Express. If you have any complaints with their figures take it up with them.
    Banks went bust because Gordon Brown who was the Labour Chancellor of the Exchequer stopped the well run profit sharing schemes operated by the banks and replaced them with bonus schemes.
    Bank staff were given targets which if they reached their target they would receive bonuses of up 30% of their salary.
    This resulted in bank staff being paid a bonus even if the bank made loss whereas with the well profit sharing schemes bank staff only received a pay out from the profit sharing scheme if their bank made a profit.
    Gordon Brown’s crazy instruction to end the profit sharing schemes and replace them with bonus schemes resulted in casino banking.
