Labour/BNP - the Easter Drylaw Gardens Connection

Whilst all the news today is of the leaked BNP list, news comes into the EdSucks GangHut of a very nice link from the British National Party to our famously squeaky-clean (tee hee) Edinburgh Labour Party. Not happy with a link to the BNP there is also a tenuous link to the News of the World's Fake Sheik. It seems that the BNP member is living in the exact same address as Labour's brand new councillor Cammy Day. Shame he didn't tell us that in his election material. Do continue reading......

Download the BT Prices here

Tonight's story in the Evening News: After we passed the BT prices to the Evening News (where they again failed to credit us for - last time those bastards are getting anything - until the next time) we were kind of shocked that they didn't allow all you citizens to download the documents. Don't fret. The documents will be available here over the weekend. They paint a said picture of the council being supplied free KY jelly by BT.

Chunky Councillor MacLaren to be a proven LIAR

Education leader Marilyne MacLaren (known to fellow councillors as Moo Moo) it seems is has to go back to school to learn how to tell the truth. The grossly overweight councillor who has spent her time in power going from mishap to mishap is to be proven a liar next week when one again Dr. Ralph Musgrave gives a damning report to the council - Ralphie's last report was showing how Nolan and his Craigmilar Cabal were, like Councillor MacLaren, at it. It is widely expected in the EdSucks hut that

It’s done and dusted - Isn’t it Billy, Mark, Malcolm & Flunky

After a high level meeting early last week in the Chain Pier bar in Newhaven Road the new Labour candidate for the Forth Ward was chosen. The Evening Chip Paper runs a story this afternoon almost letting the cat out of the bag but without any of the details which we in the Sucks hut (we had to move out of Sucks Towers) have managed to track down. At that meeting was the local MP, Mark Lazarowicz; MSP Malcolm Chisholm, former defeated Councillor Billy Fitzpatrick and their in-house flunky, trough piggy

Bi-election in Forth Ward

Leaked NIS ID Cards Document

Taken from the blog of EdSucks reader, Guido Fawkes comes the entire leaked NIS ID Cards document which has been annotated by upstanding group NO2ID. Well worth a read and distribute as widely as possible. Guido has some points of interest:

Mere Snippets

• It seems the good ladies putting up the good fight to save the city's creches have their own website. http://saveourcreche.blogspot.com/ is the place to go to find out what the parents themselves think. ....ends
• Newsnight's upcoming 8 dramas are worth watching. More details here. "The reason we've chosen drama is that now we can recreate the scenes the cameras couldn't capture at the time - inside the Foreign Office on the day the legal officer Elizabeth Wilmshurst resolved to resign, inside the UN as Britain and America cajoled for a second resolution, inside the House of Commons on the day of the vote to go to war, with the troops on the Iraqi border as Colonel Tim Collins delivered his rousing eve-of-battle speech." ....ends
• 18 Saughton Mains is an interesting and different Edinburgh blog it is also an allotment with two sheds: one leaks, the other is wobbly. Found the link on Andrew Burns' blog. Who'd have thunk it. ....ends
• Edinburgh SUcks thinks it is a good idea for Alex Salmond to resign at 5.05pm tonight, together with his cabinet. We would also request that the BBC and STV point their cameras on to the floor beneath Labour and Fib-Dem MSPs. There will sure be some mess on that floor to show the Scottish people. We could maybe get more Green MSPs, More Independents and possibly even the SSP would be in with a chance again. Now that would open up the parliament a bit. - UPDATE: Bugger.... he's staying. ....ends
• Wendygate and dominos falling make Guido Fawkes' Order-Order.com again. He even exposes what seems to be yet another contradiction with Team Alexander's press release on Friday. Labour lying over donations? Who'd ave thunk it. Wendy Domino Starts to Wobble ....ends

• If you live in Edinburgh we have found another site worth visiting. Streets of Edinburgh has 987 of the city's 5,000 streets photographed in black and white. Pop along to http://www.streetsofedinburgh.co.uk to see if your street is still waiting to be done. ....ends
• Labour in Scotland's very own two tons of fun came out in in overwhelming support of criminal behaviour. For Foulkes Sake on Newsnight took buffoon quote of the day by saying that since most Scots thought the Channel Islands were part of the UK, the donation from a resident there wasn't really illegal. His chunky colleague, Jackie Baillie was shipped out to BBC Radio to say that even if she is found to have intentionally broken the law she should stay on as their leader anyway. If you are in Edinburgh, reading this, having voted for either of the overweight blustering idiots in May last year then look at the logo on the top left of this screen. You have added to the reasons why Edinburgh Sucks! ....ends
