MSP Murdo Fraser condemned the decision to redact parts of Mr Salmond’s claims. “As a member of the parliamentary committee investigating the matter, I am heartily sick of the whole affair,” said the Tory politician. “I am sick of the lies, the evasion, the deceit, the obstruction, and the obfuscation.” Mr Fraser claimed the “whole sorry story” of the inquiry had revealed the Scottish government to be a “cesspit of vipers obsessed with personal vendettas, tearing at each other and destroying public trust”. The MSP also criticised the Crown Office – the body responsible for prosecuting crimes in Scotland – for “threatening the Scottish parliament with criminal proceedings” if the evidence was not redacted.
