Dunfermline and West Fife MP Willie Rennie has called for an investigation into administrators reportedly earning £1 million a month from managing the former assets of the Dunfermline Building Society. The accountancy firm KPMG has sold just a proportion of the assets of the building society and is charging £540.33 an hour for its services. You will remember the Nationwide Building Society...

Yesterday was not good. The RW was absolutely brilliant, and didn't rub my nose in the fact that Wales humiliated Scotland 3-0. She did casually mention something about how her brother-in -law would just love to get a "shot" at me last night, but I think she meant "gloat". Meanwhile Partick Thistle Nil were going down 3-1 at Dunfermline, losing a last minute killer goal. By all...

I've been quiet all week, not able to keep an eye on t'internet. So I've only just checked on Tam Smith the SNP candidate for Linlithgow and East Falkirk's website. Since one of my last posts before the crash was looking at Tam's propensity to speak the talk of other SNP luminaries I'm pleased to see other's are now speaking on his blog. In the last week he appears to have learnt the lesson and is...

The Ironman was on family duty visiting the outlaws in Liverpule , whilst the Fit One was not feeling 100% and so it was left to Bigman and The Shredder to make up the Posse for today's outing. It was great to see The Shredder back after his baptism of fire into the Posse last week doing Mont VeKnockhill and The North Face of Col du Cleish on his 'first date'. With rain forecast and galeforce winds,...

Back in the 50s the head of the Communist Party of Great Britain was one named Harry Pollitt. He was the man who advised high-flying young left-wingers to "work hard, get good degrees, join the Establishment and serve our cause from within." Soon these high-flyers had considerable power both within the labour party and the trades' union movement. The diary of Anatoly Chernyaev, the Soviet...

This post appeared yesterday in Brussels Journal and also at Vlad Tepe’s blog , which is where I happened upon it and left a comment. Today, the author of this post, A. Millar, sent a email thanking us for the mention. It suddenly occurred to me that this story would make a good post for Gates of Vienna also. Unfortunately, it’s a sad story. The sadness lies in the fact that social workers...

I used to live in Fife and I have lodged a complaint against Fife Council before. From my past experience, I am not exactly filled with confidence in their professionalism and integrity, but that's another story! Anyway, there has been a nasty story bubbing away for some weeks now. A Fife couple, Kerry Roberston and Mark McDougall, have been told their unborn child will be removed by social workers...
