Labour's handling of border control might be lax, but it is laughable that the Scottish National party just blame the UK government for the fiasco. Instead of trying to shift the blame, Alex Salmond and the SNP should admit their culpability. Their policy of convicts in the community rather than prisone...

Alex Salmond is trying to politicise Christmas, having already attempted to politicise the Saltire, Scotland's national days and our children's education.

While prevented from joining the UK delegation at the UN summit – unlike the position of other devolved national and regional governments – our global engagement continues, led in Copenhagen next week by our Climate Change Minister Stewart Stevenson.

This poll clearly shows that support for independence is collapsing in Scotland. When Scots are focusing on the economy, jobs and Scotland's education crisis, Alex Salmond's SNP government is obsessed with the constitution.

We agree wholeheartedly with these views, from a group set up by Alex Salmond. They highlight the need for a wide-ranging debate on the future of education in Scotland, especially the need for schools to have more of a say in how they are run.

What people really care about are jobs and the economy. It is the top priority, not Alex Salmond's vanity project. [He] is out of touch with Scotland. All recent polls show the great majority of Scots don't want to break up Britain and now is not the time for a referendum.

Support for separation is slumping to all time lows. Even the SNP admits its doomed referendum will cost at least £9 million and it will be a monumental waste of parliamentary time. Their White Paper is irrelevant. Alex Salmond should scrap it and get on with the job he was elected to do.
