Reform Scotland.


Mr Smith has been passed a copy of an invitation to the "Launch Party" for a new "independent, non-party think tank," Reform Scotland, on 15th April 2008 which aims to "promote new directions for public policy based on the traditional Scottish principles of limited government, diversity and personal responsibility."

So far so good, except .... the Director of the new "think tank" is none other than Geoff Mawdsley who's other claims to fame are that he is a failed Conservative Parliamentary candidiate and former political adviser to former Scottish Conservative Leader David McLetchie MSP, as well as being a former lobbyist.

So how "independent" and "non-party" can our Geoff really be?
