Thanks for putting it into numbers in this example.

This thought seems to apply across many Scottish government areas.

Fishing - an opportunity to support remote communities. Little done.

Drug deaths - Number improving but still amongst worst in Europe and the improvement may involve a disgusting slight of statistical hand.

NHS - Incomparable but not in any good wholesome way.

Ferries - Say no more.

Smelters - Like the ferries, writing a million pound cheque to each employee would have been faster better cheaper.

Bottle return - Doh

HPMA - Doh.

As a track record for more power it looks like a compelling argument for No. Don't even need to consider if a well run outfit could achieve anything (probably not).

And would you let these folk write your constitution? Cause they just had a go at that too.

It rather feels like Jack Nicholson in the Shining "Honey I'm governing".
