Cronyism

The Scotsman

The stench, the reek of cronyism in Scotland’s devolved government is now
overwhelming. The number of appointments from within a small circle of people,
for whom who they know appears at least as important as what they know, is
staggering. I shall spare readers the details but after eight years of their
rule Labour is to blame and the Liberal Democrats, with their umbilical link to
power, are now just as guilty.

The problem is that the Scottish public doesn't know and doesn't care. The good people will leave and the rest will vote Labour.
