Dear All
Alex Salmond’s former employee and SNP rising
star Alex MacLeod has now been sentenced for his part in an election expenses
fraud.
A former SNP councillor has gotten off with
a ridiculously light sentence of a community payback order of wait for it, 160
hours of unpaid community work.
4 weeks work as a punishment for his
attempts to rig an election in his favour.
Presumably with such a light sentence he
will be available to campaign for Scottish independence citing how fairness,
equality and social justice are important to him personally.
Alex MacLeod was Highland Council's
youngest member when he was elected in May 2012 at the age of 19, if he hadn’t
committed fraud he would still be in public office.
In a statement, MacLeod said:
"These past two years have been the
most turbulent and horrible that I have known”.
Obviously MacLeod is keen to rewrite history
as quickly as possible to portray himself as the ‘victim’ here.
He added:
"I am eager to have the opportunity to
repay my debt to them."
Last month, MacLeod’s take on the fraud was
that it had been "an act of foolishness in the heat of a campaign".
During the run to the guilty plea, you
could have been under the impression that Salmond’s former employee was
innocent by his statements of his team working closely with the Crown Office,
as if it had all been a big mistake like a paper work error.
He then pleaded guilty to knowingly
incurring more election expenses than he was allowed, and declaring false
expenses to council officials.
Alex MacLeod also admitted to altering
invoices for print work and submitting these to local authority officials.
MacLeod knew exactly what he was doing, at
some stage, I would expect him to return to the SNP as he was one of the ‘clique’
and with them citing he has paid his debt to society.
Bill Walker, Nicola’s pal on the other hand
doesn’t tick the same boxes as MacLeod so he won’t be allowed back.
Alex MacLeod is a rat, but as a rat he has been exposed.

Well what to expect from a young impressionable employee of Salmond?
Lying cheating and blatant deceit seems the order of the day in the Nationalist Socialist Party.
