Wiping The Smug Smile From A Politicians Face

Alex Salmond is a typical politician in that he will do anything to get attention ... he knows that the political tide is still rising and that devolved government has given him a platform that he almost can't fail from .... if not this time then next time, but like all the chancers who are in politics he seeks any publicity. 

So when the chance came to have cold water poured over his head, instead of over his arguments, he naturally grabbed it ... although ostensibly it was for a worthy cause, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, which is an activity involving dumping a bucket of ice water on someone's head to promote awareness of the disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and encourage donations to research.

So as hopefully this may well be the last time this blog bothers to deal with this man here's the smile being wiped from his face for the first time this week.

... something a lot us would like to do to a lot of politicians.
