Ok, I'm trying to follow what is going on with Alex Salmond and the SNP, but I'm not sure I'm getting it right. Can someone Scottish explain to me if this is as dodgy as it seems to be?
From what I can gather, Salmond was accused of sexual harassment. There was a trial. He wasn't convicted. He is now reaping revenge by making a conspiracy out of a technical mistake made during the trial. He may bring down the SNP and jeopardize a future Independence vote in the process.
This seems... mad. Am I missing something important? How do people in Scotland view it? Is there actually something serious that Nicola Sturgeon has done, or is this a Scottish version of missing emails?
I'd almost like to learn that there is some crucial part of the puzzle I'm missing.
