ALBA highlights "ALEX Salmond could not resist a bit of a tease when he took the stand at the Glenfiddich Spirit of Scotland Awards, hosted by Kirsty Wark. It is not that long since the BBC apologised for the "rude and dismissive" treatment of the First Minister in her Newsnight interview with him. "Well it's fantastic to be here, ladies and gentlemen, with Kirsty; particularly great to be introduced by Kirsty and get a word in edgeways," Salmond joked, as the two stood at opposite ends of the stage. Minutes later, he drew some shocked but amused gasps when he talked about the votes for the Top Scot award, which he handed out to charity businessman Mick Jackson. "The voting was close," Salmond said. "As close as a Scottish election - but this time we counted all the votes."
