He's only been deid a few hours and Scottish news has already got an hour long special on featuring Herr Salmond, our great leader !

Considering switching off the TV, till at least 48 hrs after the funeral....

A certain other "leader" who thankfully died earlier this year referred to Madiba as a "terrorist". Not the only thing she was 100% wrong about!

He was labelled a terrorist because the government in south africa at the time was an ally of the west during the cold war.
Whether he was or not is open for debate, he did some questionable things but his message later on in his life was a good one and shouldn't be ignored because of any shady past he may have had.

Makes for interesting reading hearing the other side of the story. Today I learned about necklacing and that white south africans are on the genocide watch list with a rating of 6/8 (7 being the extermination has begun and 8 being denial)
