It is good to know that the lofty reputation of Scottish politics is being upheld as stories of swingers parties, perjury claims and phone tapping swirl around the Web c/o this trial.
The background
- Allegations were made that Sheridan took part in swingers parties while a Member of the Scottish Parliament.
- So Sheridan sues the NOTW for defamation in court and wins.
- Followed by further allegations that Sheridan committed perjury to win his case.
- Then Sheridan is found guilty of perjury and sentenced to three years in prison.
- Result - all the Scottish political journalists have a good laugh behind the scenes and Scotland's reputation as a serious, independent, political entity takes another bashing around the world.
