ALISTER Jack was on BBC radio wanting to move to one-metre distancing for the sake of the economy.
This is the man who has been in hiding since the Dominic Cummings fiasco, and as soon as he wants something he is given air time and Radio Scotland is happy to oblige.
Where were the questions to him regarding Dominic Cummings?
Where were the questions about him voting against protecting food/farming from inferior imports?
Where were the questions regarding the higher R rate in the north-west of England and the traffic coming across the Border?

Jackson Carlaw has had two good teachers about when the going gets tough (the other one is Ruth Davidson) – hide away, and no-one from the BBC will doorstep you until the heat is off and they have conveniently forgotten why you were hiding.
Is he more worried about the profits of his Tory donors rather than the health and wellbeing of the rest of us?

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
