The Scottish negotiations

The Scotsman claims to have the inside track on what has been going on around Holyrood over the holiday weekend:
The Liberal Democrat group met again yesterday afternoon. The mood was still sceptical, with some MSPs wanting nothing to do with the SNP, preferring to retreat to the back-benches without even talking to the Nationalists. Eight years in government and a bad election result have led to introspection within the party and many MSPs feel it would do the Lib Dems good to regroup and reassess in opposition, regardless of what could be achieved in government with the SNP.

I noted your earlier comment about the nannyish agenda. Have a look at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/6635117.stm
Of course, when you create a crime, you create work for law enforcers, not to mention informers. Thank goodness we live in a free country.
