Another enquiry

[Davy]

BBC News - Historical abuse inquiry announced by Scottish government

All very well, but how can't the powers that be get the same laws to force the ruling classes to give evidence against their peers. Will be low level social workers who get caught this time...and they should be...but how many judges, police, mps have been prosecuted?

Conservative MSP Nanette Milne said: "I hope it will provide an opportunity to expose the perpetrators of such hideous crimes against children in Scotland and ...

Hideous? offensive to the senses and especially to sight : exceedingly ugly: morally offensive : shocking

Surely she meant heinous?

Of a person or wrongful act, especially a crime : utterly odious or wicked

I expect better from the tory councillors, sorry MSPs!

As for the enquiry.

I hope it's cheaper than the most recent one. It's got the potential to be a record breaker!

The organisations involved are just about every organisation in Scotland ... so good luck with that. Make sure the St Andrews first aid lot are included.

Is this a case of getting in there before Westminster? Oh! Will political parties, given recentish revelations, be included?

This could run for so long that in future if anyone looks at the title and sees Historical they'll think it's the feckin inquiry itself!
