All the Adv Generals counsel has done today by trying to character assassinate me in open court (by taking tweets out of context) is make me more determined to push for independence. One more reason being to get rid of the Office of Advocate General from Scotland. Permenantly.
For the record by the way, the RT interview, was scathing of the Advocate Generals waste of public money. He read one half of the conversation and simply said that I opined on the UK Government. Of course he wouldn't want to read that in open court. Because it gave context....
....and it also called out the office of the advocate general for wasting taxpayers money.
On another matter surrounding the insinuations of an "unsigned affidavit" and that it was unsigned because I didn't want to swear matters under oath. This was false and he knew it to be false because under the Law Society's regulations, an affidavit cannot be notorised...
...unless the solicitor or notary public doing it can physically see the person signing the document. I didn't have access to a webcam and we had only a few hours to submit it. So it was submitted unsigned until such time as I could be witnessed signing it.
The problem is, as Mr. O'neill said in summation - The Advocate General and Lord Advocate WAS TOLD THIS. So I highly suspect the insinuation was intended for those listening in rather than the judge.
I've had 3 members of the press tell me today (that were listening in) that they were disgusted by the fact that a Government agency would spend time trawling someone's Twitter feed.
Quite frankly, the Advocate Generals counsel has acted appallingly.
