| "Who is Rupert Murdoch supporting? That should give us an idea of the result." Well, Alex Salmond and his ministers met said Dirty Digger no fewer than 37 times between May 2007 when Salmond became first minister and March 2014. That is just over once every two months - far more than with any other newspaper proprietor or media company. He also offered tickets to the Ryder Cup golf and the theatre. They also met in New York in April which Scotland's Sunday Post reported, forcing the reluctant first minister's office to confirm it. Murdoch has tweeted about the prospect of a "huge black eye for whole political establishment, especially Cameron and Miliband". Never mind offers of golf and theatre tickets: what favours can the clan chieftain of the Diggers expect from the first minister in future? Source: 'Private Eye' 1375. |
