£750,000 overdraft : "it's easy done" pleads SNP source. The SNP this week owned up to £750K’s worth of red ink, but, let’s be honest, it's easy done… £40K on a charisma transplant for John Swinney. (Failed to take.) £100K for a humility transplant for Alex Salmond (As above.) £20K to send Nicola on a course aimed to allow her to pass for a human being. (Er,) £50K to launch the self-help video "Hair Care my Way" by Roseanna Cunnigham. (Now available for 50p in Bargain Books) £100K to publish Mike Russell’s new book "My friend, Alex Salmond." £20K to pulp all remaining copies of Mike’s book. £120K spent of mass hypnosis to convince SNP members that the party isn’t heading down the electoral stank. Membership still worry but now will bark like a dog when someone snaps fingers. Remainder of cash? Just spent on stuff, including 50p on policy development AND the buying of a fairy coach for coronation of Alex and Nicola. Inside: How are these two news items connected?
