Wendy Alexander not to be prosecuted

As the farce/furore/falsehoods about the donations her (non-)election campaign received, the matter was referred to the Procurator Fiscal for consideration.

A Crown Office spokesperson said a prosecution "would not be appropriate".

Probably the worst result all round.

Not cleared -- not guilty -- no transparency.

She will proclaim her innocence er... unintended guilt er... honest mistake by someone else er... ignorance of the situation to demonstrate her saintliness.

Meantime her opponents will be comparing her to Al Capone running Enron, whilst defrauding Mother Theresa.

Back in the real world, the voters will be lobbying their dinner at their televisions in disgust shouting, "Bloody politicians! They're all the same!"

It is believed that the hunt is still on for a flattering photo of Wendy.
