I SEE that John Bolton’s new book of revelations of his time in the White House is causing such a stushie as to cause Donald Trump to threaten him with everything short of a Biblical plague.
We can only hope that the prospect of a generous book deal is equally tempting to Dominic Cummings.
I am no more a fan of either man than I was of Albert Speer, whose Inside the Third Reich was an interesting, if self-serving, read.

That title being taken, I suggest “Titanic II, it was all the fault of the iceberg, I told it to get out of my way”. Though if he wants it he had better hurry before it is swiped by Michael Gove for his account the EU negotiations.

TRUMP tariffs, coronavirus and Brexit could turn the success story of the whisky industry into a disaster. Brilliant! What an achievement for Westminster and the Tories, if that can make Scotland too poor to want independence. Full steam ahead, then.

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
