Sturgeon's Lawyer Didn't Believe Her!

Added: 2026-06-03

[00:00:00]Hi, welcome to another episode of Salmond Fox Scotland. Nicola Sturgeon's crisis lawyer has not always sounded quite so convinced over her pleas of innocence.

[00:00:13]Um Aamer Anwar, he is now defending the former First Minister over what she knew about morals embezzlement. But only two short years ago Anwar branded Sturgeon the Scottish master of spin.

[00:00:30]Should that be mistress of spin? Maybe he doesn't know difference between men and women either.

[00:00:34]And he accused her of carefully crafting images of being shattered by her deleted WhatsApps. Deary me.

[00:00:44]He even asked what bearing the Alex Salmond trial or operation branch form had on those missing messages back then.

[00:00:50]He said bereaved families wanted answers and there was no hiding place for spin.

[00:00:55]But now he says critics asking why Sturgeon was not charged are just armchair detectives.

[00:01:00]Yes, everyone's a detective. Everyone wants to know the answer.

[00:01:03]It's not It's not a terrible thing to be, is it? Sturgeon said she knew nothing but that and that is her position.

[00:01:10]Nobody believes that. But even when her own lawyer once called her um the mistress of spin um and questioned her transparency, openness, and honesty the public is entitled to ask questions.

[00:01:25]The man defending her called her a liar.

[00:01:29]Weird, isn't it how these things turn around?

[00:01:32]Aamer Anwar is also the defense lawyer for the two Manchester thugs who will be let off now. So sending the message it's okay to beat policemen up.

[00:01:42]Yeah.

[00:01:43]Let me know what you think. Thanks very much. Bye.
