It debunks some of Ecky's insinuations re sisting the judicial process and sure, there are lotsa questions/theories in what was predicted to be a "can of worms" - everybody to their own opinion and their "conspiracy theory" insinuations without 100% proof either but admittedly lotsa suspicion. I've commented previously that there could well have been an individualistic issue re a bias towards Salmond because of his crass behaviour but I don't think it was an all-embracing govt conspiracy - absolute rubbish IMO with no logical reason to follow that route whatsoever plus too much to lose! I call it possible self-preservation/protectionism in a situation within a government that has been consistently described as a potential "political minefield with lotsa trip wires". I must say, as previously commented, I wanna just move on from this shit in which the original perpetrator (not the Scot govt!) who was found not guilty would've likely been sacked if he'd been exposed during his period in office just like anybody else behaving in this way in any business/company. And what about the women/complainants who were let down by the whole judicial process??? A lotta people forgetting the biggest failure that these women have been let down badly. Remember that originally many "conspiracy theorists" presented an argument (another conspiracy theory!) that these eleven(?) women had formed some kinda conspiracy pact to bring down Ecky years and years later, well after the events of such inappropriate sexual advances by a sitting FM. It transpired that these women are random, unrelated people who eventually came forward after the initial complaint made by two women within their unrelated group. That initial complaint was one of more interest to me (re being a wee bit suspicious of the poss motives to raise such an issue at that time) than the eventual bigger number of random offended parties who came forward and confirmed there was a historical problem attached to Ecky, the significance of which we don't really know but we have a fair idea re what was going on. Of course that led to my previous initial remarks that solid evidence and proof of guilt was likely gonna be difficult to present in a legal sense. By gum, how prophetic was that comment!!
Of course that leads on to questions re the robustness of the processes available to govt and how to deploy proper human resources to good effect in ensuring trust in said processes to progress govt instructions/actions as effectively as possible.
