The nasty politics ...



Labour MSP Lord George Foulkes claims Alex Salmond was playing politics by asking for FMQs to be cancelled as a mark of respect for the 16 men killed in the North Sea helicopter crash.

I don't think FMQs should have been effectively cancelled either, but I do think Foulkes is wide of the mark with this attack.

Especially given that from where I was sitting, he appeared to sleep though large sections of it anyway.

In fact, he tends to nod off fairly regularly in FMQs, when he is not heckling to the point of being told to shut up by the Presiding Officer.
