Salmonds Resignation Speech
It was interesting to read a footnote to a report on the Press Conference yesterday, given by Alec Salmond at his Grace and Favour Residence, Bute House.
"His last act....... Ban on Press foes
When he finally surfaced to answer questions about the defeat, Alec Salmond hand picked the journalists allowed to attend - with Unionist Press turned away.
His Press conference, at which he announced hos resignation, had been due to start at 10am but at midday officials announced it would be by 'invitation only'. The Times, The Sun in S Outland, the Heald, Dundee Courier, Daily Record, PA, BBC and Sky were invited while The Mail, Financial Times, Telegraph and Express were barred and The Guardian boycotted the event."
Says it all really!!
