John Swinney has just demanded that those of us who have been pressing him to investigate organised child abuse in Scotland put our trust in him. But nobody will trust him while he continues to block an independent review. We don’t want more words, we want action.

The most annoying people in Scottish letters are at it again, folks. Having seen this letter and its signatories, I'm only sad some haven't used the last 5 years to reflect, after many of THE SAME PEOPLE tried this on the Scottish Poetry Library.

🔴 Is the SNP blocking a grooming gangs inquiry to avoid racism accusations? Victims have every right to be outraged. Read my @MailOnlineScot column👇 https://t.co/FkL3502NEl

There has been no shortage of inquiries under the SNP - indeed they've become the country's only growth industry.

Ladies, can you just stop winning everything? Court cases, awards, respect, I mean it’s just not fair. You could put some women out of their publicly funded jobs for goodness sake. Be kind.
Inevitable petulance from the CEO of Equality Network who has a tenuous grasp on the truth (we didn't change the def of women, but she tried to). "Dignity, respect & empathy" are our core principles - for vulnerable women who most need women's services. https://t.co/o7WWuaLo3k

The Scottish Government says we don’t need an inquiry into grooming gangs. But with no data, no tracking, and no clear picture of what’s…

Agreed.
The Scottish Government must take action now, to capitalise on the achievements of @ScotlandNT and to honour the Gov pledge to double investment in sport by the end of the parliamentary term. Scottish sport is now “running on empty” and we must wake up to this. Sport unifies

This is just going to get worse for @scotgov These women are strong and brave. They should not have to plead for justice. @HRwritesnews
💥Exclusive: A brave Scottish woman has told of being abused and raped by grooming gangs while in care in Edinburgh. She’s now the 3rd survivor to call for an inquiry. How many more women have to relive this before John Swinney accepts there is a problem? https://t.co/NRYyJ9QT3p

Most of the time, politicians attempt to project a façade of empathy and understanding, with wildly varying results.

Most folk still don’t realise it, but the real opposition in Scotland these past five years hasn’t been in Holyrood. It’s been women. Ordinary women doing the serious democratic graft while the political class clowned around. So it was perfect @ForWomenScot won their award last
