We’ve recently seen the Scottish Lib Dems suggest we copy failed schemes to improve student teacher recruitment and to reduce child obesity. As another tower block in London burns, surely they think we should copy English building regulations to prevent fires:
The Scottish changes then go further than the incoming English regulations, outlining a more comprehensive series of measures designed to improve building safety broadly. In the same vein as the controls on combustible materials, the Scottish regulations will makesprinkler installation mandatory in flatted accommodation, larger multi-occupancy dwellings, and places that deliver care. They will also introduce measures to improve evacuation procedures, including the requirement for sound alerts and two escape stairways in all new high-rise residential buildings, and create specific fire safety guidance for the people that live in them.
Maybe not?

Lib Dem Unionitis as they suggest we copy a second old FAILED English scheme
I think they are doing it deliberately to push the SNP Gov down the UK harmony route.
The SNP Gov us not so stupid and the people of Scotland are no longer cowed by Westminster propaganda.
They are the thickos

Probably, the LibDems know that the schemes they are suggesting are ineffective, but they know that the print and broadcast media in Scotland will publish them and then not ask probing questions about the proposals.
For example, “Scottish Government denies that changes to building regulations are needed in Scotland”.

I wonder if “Jockney Jo” realises there is life outside of London, the rapacious City-State where she lives?
It would be great if the SNP win in Shetland. A poke in the eye for the brit Nits and their tame “journalists” (Gordon in the Herod, for one).
I also wondered if Jane Lax is suspended form the “Ruthie, Vote Ruthy for even more Ruthie” party, will she also be suspended from Question Time?
