Crap Holyrood Chat seems to have been impressed by the standard of motions and PQs of late. I have to admit my infrequent amble into what is being said at the Parliament has not turned up anything worthy of inclusion here.
That is until today. I fear Jackie Baillie is on thin ice with this rather poor motion and, so, she is entered into the vaults.
S3M-03567 Jackie Baillie (Dumbarton) (Scottish Labour): SNP Fails Dumbarton Academy— That the Parliament welcomes the decision by the Labour group of West Dunbartonshire Council to set a budget that included funding to enable a much-needed rebuilding of Dumbarton Academy; considers that the rebuilding of this 500-year-old school should be a priority; expresses considerable disappointment and anger that the SNP-led council failed even to consider the Labour group's proposals and voted against the rebuilding of the school; further expresses concern that, if the school is not rebuilt quickly, it will disadvantage thousands of young children in Dumbarton who are currently being denied access to the best educational environment possible, and therefore calls on the SNP to build a new Dumbarton Academy without any further delay.
A valid grudge perhaps, but a parliamentary motion? Save it for your campaign leaflets I think...

Aye I heard in the headlines that Dumbarton Academy had fallen down, but what the English papers said it was because of total neglect over the past 50 years.
Silly woman she is!
