Joanna Taylor – The Independent Aug 18, 2021
The Scottish government is considering making its temporary coronavirus powers permanent, which would allow it to impose lockdowns, close schools and release prisoners early.
A change in the law would allow Holyrood to respond to any future public health threats more “effectively and rapidly”, according to consultation published by the government.
The powers — which also include the ability to move court sessions online and allow a wider range of healthcare workers to administer vaccines — would be deployed when “necessary and proportionate”, ministers say, but the Conservatives have accused them of being “unwilling to give up their control over people’s lives”.
Currently, the additional powers are set to end in March 2022, but can be extended by six months with Holyrood backing. The government is seeking the public’s views on the possible permanent expansion, which they say could help to “protect the people of Scotland” from “any incidence or spread of infection” that could harm them even beyond Covid-19.
Some caveats would apply: schools would only shut with the sign off of the chief medical officer, for instance, while ministers would report to parliament every two months on the use of the powers.
Allowing the early release of prisoners would also likely carry caveats: currently, inmates can be released up to 90 days early to alleviate pressure on prison as long as they haven’t committed harassment or domestic violence offences. Prison governors can also veto specific prisoners they believe could pose a risk to someone.
The government’s consultation also recommends a permanent online shift to some processes which were digitised during the pandemic, such as council meetings, court documents and registering still births and deaths.
Commenting on the consultation, deputy first minister John Swinney said that Scotland has a “unique opportunity” to “reimagine health and social care”.

Hang-cock.
It’s a long list.
a very long list.
These people are poorly. they need help. It’s cruel to let them inflict madness on others.
It’s equally cruel for Police & medics to allow them to function unhindered against the populations.
Action is needed immediately, unless these costume wearing puppets be tarred with the same brush.
How come.
EVERYONE on this & similar web sites KNEW all along this was the ‘agenda’, Yet still the bulk of the people just don’t get it.
That ‘Andrews’ character has recently said, Anyone drinking outside, Still CAN’T take their mask off,?
Come on Aussie Plod… ACT, take him away.
Was it Ardern yesterday who said, Don’t mix & talk with other people outside your bubble !
NZ Plod, you have a duty to lock this woman up.
One of her eyes is higher than the other. She might be inbred, like a lot of other NWO hacks.
Another DUMB BROAD! How many more odd these stupid *unts can we possibly take???
And if that ain’t just about the ugliest-lookin mug on Planet Earth… I’d like to know what is!!!
@ Lewis,
I laughed out loud.
But you are right,
She’s not ‘right’ in the head.
I dont like this small lip ice cold race anymore.
proud of their brain salat ape . O polynesian
women stay as you are, never change to ego
fanatic feminism to rule the world . we whites
have to much of that neurotic bullshit !
Have decided it is every Scottish man woman or child priority to see the satanic piece of garbage krankie dead, in any way, it will be done. TICK TOCK YA DYKE BASTARD.
The Scottish Government would require to consult the sovereign people
And possibly a referendum as to whether they can change the Law to impose
Lockdowns etc on a permanent basis.
This being introduced at the same time as their new policy that children
Aged 4 years upwards can choose gender change!!!without parents
Knowledge.
U C FO
Sturgeon is a lesbian in a fake marriage to a male homosexual, She has a French girlfriend. It is an open secret here in Scotland. A super injunction paid for by the taxpayer prevents the MSM printing it the truth. Everything about this woman is a fraud. Only 1/4 to 1/3 of we Scots vote for the SNP who are generally despised by most of us.
nicola/nick ass hola awayenbileyerhied unfortunately here in Scotland I see a lot of numpties in the shops wearing masks and looking down at those who refuse to follow this mass fraud, for god sake Peo ple wake up its you who’s wearing the mask and taking this vaccine who is complying with these sociopaths and psychopaths.This is a land of ancient sages and highly elevated souls, stop repeating the mantra…im protecting myself and others…no your not.
She was never picked at netball or invited to birthday parties as a child. It’s her form of revenge on mankind. Just like all the other perp weirdos.
Nuremberg II will take care of idiots like her.
time to email or write letters to all these crooks / lunatics in charge of the current destruction
tell them they will be personally held responsible by we the people for all the vaxxine injuries and deaths
the charges of treason, genocide, murder, crimes against humanity will carry the death penalty, the
covid fraud has been exposed and these low life scum know it, they think they are above the law, they
believe they are untouchable

Aye, so it is – but to be followed by a short drop.
William Wallace !!! Where are you ???
Look at Sturgeon’s very thin lips. She is not a sensual person. Nobody is going to enjoy kissing her sexually. Usually the lips at the other end are just as thin. Childless, she has the cruel nature of thin-lipped unmaternal women. Hasn’t even adopted a child. Was probably the child of sensual parents.
TIME TO GET BUTT NAKED,SPIRALS OF WODE WARPAINT,ARMED AN LET THE HAGGIS HUNG FREE-CHARGE—REDRUM THE TREASONOUS TRAITOROUS BASTARDS THAT ARE AGAINST THE TRUTH THAT IS NATURAL LAW…….
Like Johnson, Sturgeon is an oddball unexpectedly come out of left field. Her mad dream of becoming the queen of Scotland is increasingly irritating the elite.
She may experience ‘health problems’ soon.
It strikes me as rather curious that prisoners in Scotland can be released up to ninety days before the completion of their sentences, in the event of imminent inmate overcrowding, (which is what I take “alleviating pressure” on prisons to mean) – except for those individuals incarcerated for crimes of harassment or domestic violence. Such offenders are ineligible for remission.
Why those two crimes in particular though? Certainly, domestic violence is among the most serious of crimes and abusive bullying can endure for years in some households.
“Harassment” implies a series of actions undertaken to bring distress to another during an adversarial disputation of some kind but it can also, for example, describe the more grievous crime of stalking.
Yet, why those two in particular? They are not the offences I would have selected if I’d been asked to pick two especially heinous crimes to be excluded from consideration for concessionary release.
Hollyrood seems to have something of a penchant for vagary in regulatory statute. Interpretative leeway allows for wider application of the legislation and for greater prosecutorial reach and enforcement.
Testament to this craftful imprecision are the statutes dealing with the two named crimes above. The 1998 Harassment Act (Scotland) doesn’t define “harassment,” which wasn’t an oversight on the part of those who draughted it but intentionally loose languaging. Harassment, we are told, involves repeated action and must cause “alarm, distress or torment.” Arguably, these are dangerously subjective criteria within the context of legal codification, however appaling the crime be.
The 2018 Domestic Abuse Act (Scotland) makes provision for the prosecution of “psychological abuse” in the home which is another disingenuos catch-all, included, I’d wager, with ulterior purpose in mind.
The Scottish government has engineered a contingency to silence the sovereign voices certain to be raised in opposition to its proposed enabling mechanism, which would disempower parliament and impede its constitutional prerogative to provide scrutiny and oversight of government.
I doubt, however, that Sturgeon’s plans originate with herself or with her ministers. This flagrant anti-democratic upping of the ante, just as people are striving for a promised return to normalcy, is viable only by mitigation of chutzpah in the derelict hearts of hegemonic temple-builders.
The jews map for all contingencies. They wish to remove their opponents from the public arena completely. As the government policy of clemency frees up prison space, the cells will be filled over again by convicts languishing in constabulary holding cells. The replenished prison demographic will be the likes of you and me and we’ll be charged with such crimes as harassment for standing outside the local M.P’s house on two consecutive days, wearing a sandwich board saying “No Compulsory Vaccinations” while quietly handing out leaflets.
Perhaps your girlfriend of two weeks, a C.I.D. plant, will provide the evidence in court to have you convicted for domestic “psychological abuse” and a spook doctor will testify in corroboration of her claims, as will your two neighbours who will swear upon oath that they could readily and nightly hear you yelling aggressively at her and threatening her with violences. It won’t matter that you’re a pacifist, a vegan, jain or saint-like in your tolerances, you’ll still be convicted. Scotland should beware.
Come to think of it, I have a couch and an inflatable mattress and can therefore offer safe overnight accommodation to any of our Caledonian breatheren who are fugitive from native tyrany and seek to reach France to petition the French King to raise an army on your behalf. I am also able to acquire a good, sturdy dinghy for your crossing. There are loads of them scattered all over the beaches here.
Who is running this? I have a list of people from the Bilderberg meetings that can be found, believe it or not, in the Wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilderberg_meeting. Look for the Chairmen of the Steering
Committee of the Bilderberg Meetings, click on the name and find out at the bottom the positions he or she held in Freemasonry. 33rd is NOT the top. That is ONLY a fraction of what is part of an international secret society Kennedy stated when he listed the threat being global with no limits on either funds, military, leadership at all levels of every institution… York Rite is 10 positions that are found quite often in Bilderberg, who are also Trilateralists and Chatham House (Royal Institute of International Affairs), Council on Foreign Relations and the equivalent in all other nations.
The list specifics of some groups at the top are:
Bohemian Club
Chatham House (The Royal Institute of International Affairs)
Council on Foreign Relations
Le Cercle
List of Bilderberg participants
Transnational capitalist class
Trilateral Commission
Valdai Discussion Club
World Economic Forum

There is a list of participants when searching each year.
I have listed the Website for the Temple Knights of St. John which is the Crown and the sq. mi. of the City of London Corporation of which the King or Queen even have to ask permission to enter!
The people in each of these groups may not be even part of the standard Blue and Red Freemason Scottish and York Rites. This garbage of humanity has been doing business since the first century under the “Mystic Force” of King Herod III. What the Templars found is that everything that is Judaic is actually Vedic and Egyptian of a far earlier time. This is why the Lodges are of the Egyptian Motiff, even in “Israel” which identifies the merger of the Egyptian with the general term for god being El (pronounce ale as this is ancient greek and latin in vowel structure). Most Rabbis have no clue as to what their religion is just as any other which all want wealth, power, access and control of the masses for themselves.
The Pentateuch, Torah, Septuagint (take your pick as the Septuagint is derived from Greek as ancient Hebrew has no vowels), Talmud, Kabbalah, New Testament are all allegorical and deviate throughout time as god, literally taken would by a schizophrenic, psychotic megalomaniacal nut job. This is hidden in the Talmud and Kabbalah and there are 3 sets of Talmudic sets, the Babylonian (reference), Jerusalem and Soncino. The NT KJV is the translation and more modifications than original words (Bart Ehrman, a Biblical Scholar found more changes to the NT than the earliest writings which can be found in the Assyrian, Coptic and Ethiopian writings in the 3rd century and earlier) by Rosicrucian Sir Francis Bacon. The entire “Enlightenment” was of “Illumination” which Jewish and Catholic sects all were involved in (i.e. I have a late 1400s Portuguese book pdf image print of theFranciscans and Jesuits who did not care for one another and a great deal of insinuation of illumination and there are many schisms in the original Catholic faiths of which there are many, most now called orthodox…). The Hebrews/Samaritans also hated one another (Canaan vs Phoenicia).
