Thread: SNP Highland MPs fail to show up for vital meetings to save last emergency Coastguard

    Default SNP Highland MPs fail to show up for vital meetings to save last emergency Coastguard

    SNP MPs failed to turn up to a series of crucial meetings to save the last remaining emergency Coastguard tug in the north of Scotland.
    None of the party’s five Highlands and Islands MPs attended any of the three meetings in Edinburgh earlier this year that resulted in the Coastguard vessel inOrkney being retained.
    The lack of a second tug based in the Western Isles, after it was cut by the Tories in 2012, is cited as one of the factors that led to the 17,000-ton Transocean Winner oil rig being washed ashore on Lewis last week. Failed to attend : SNP MPs Brendan O'Hara, Drew Hendry, Ian Blackford, Angus MacNeil and Paul Monaghan

    I suppose they all must have had more important business to attend to, what I fail to imagine what it could be with lives-pollution at risk .
    Hating people because of their colour is wrong. And it doesn't matter which colour does the hating. It's just plain wrong.
