Here are the charges Alex Salmond faces. Multiple charges of sexual assault, and two of attempted rape.

Mr Salmond made no formal plea in court and was released on bail pending further examination.

To be clear, a plea wouldn't normally be entered at this stage of the criminal procedure. Mr Salmond made a statement outside court insisting that he is "innocent of any criminality" and said he would defend himself "to the utmost".

Mr Salmond has now left Edinburgh Sheriff Court, having been released on bail. His next date in court is still to be set.

I know this same warning has been posted many times today, but let's underline it one more time - this is an active case. Tweets can constitute contempt of court - endangering both court proceedings, and the liberty of people posting them, even anonymously

Here's another great article by Bruce Thornton. You've seen me tweet him before. Please read and RT this.

'We can’t let the buffoonery of the Democrats lull us into complacency.'

Here's the full text of the article so you don't miss the good parts.
It's long but worth the time:

"Democratically elected people’s assemblies historically have been known for their mediocrity, and the U.S. has been no different.

The great champion of American democracy, Alexis de Tocqueville, in 1835 observed, “I was surprised to find so much distinguished talent among the citizens and so little among the heads of the government.

@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK @BrightonSurvivorsNET “In the light of a highly disturbing increase of #transphobia locally & nationally…” IF everything anybody says or does is #transphobia, of course you can say it is rising. Any reputable statistics?

@SurvivorsnetBtn

@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK “…so the date @Womans_Place_UK event feels like a concerted effort to make #trans ppl, & particularly #transwomen, feel #intimidated and #invalidated” Is it the position of SN that the sensitivities of #transwomen mean that #democracy should be suspended any time they say so?
