๐Ÿ“ฐ Regarding the #JudicialReview against the @scotgov:

"We would have expected to get a substantive reply" .. "Perhaps they were going to say, 'we're about to legislate for this anyway, or do something โ€“ remotely โ€“ legal"
โ€“โ€“ @AlexSalmond

#SalmondSpeaks
The @scotgov refused arbitration; pressed ahead and cost the taxpayer ยฃ512,250 โ€“ the very highest level that could be awarded by the judge. The reason for that is the unprecedented lengths the Gov went to hide their evidence.

#SalmondSpeaks
๐Ÿšจ A totally extraordinary position.

"The Gov were prepared to go before the Court and say, 'there were no more documents'." .. "[@scotgov] had been withholding documentation, not just from the petitioner (myself), not just the Court, but from their own Counsel."
