James Kelly (Labour) is my MSP. He's also Tony Kelly's brother. Tony was Megrahi's solicitor.

Christine Grahame is my MSP.

I just saw Tony Kelly on Newsnight, once I'd found BBC2 again having dragged an old Freeview box out of a dusty cupboard because they just switched off the BBC2 analogue signal here last night....

Anyway, I've heard him before and I think he's an opportunistic slimy creep. I wish Megrahi had had a solicitor with a bit more backbone. The whole thing stinks of politics to me.

Am I understanding correctly that some on the prosecution team restructured to be Megrahi's defense? Did I hear wrong?

James Kelly took a very different view to his brother on Megrahi during debates at the Scottish Parliament on this.

Readers are invited to comment on blog posts. All comments require to be pre-moderated by me, and I shall reject all (a) that are not related to the Lockerbie disaster or (b) that fail to meet my -- perhaps idiosyncratic -- standards of courtesy towards other contributors. Comments will not be rejected simply because I disagree with them or because I, or other contributors, find them irritating. But comments will be rejected if they distort or misrepresent the evidence; are defamatory; or if they risk embroiling me, as publisher, in defamation proceedings. I am perfectly relaxed about being sued in respect of material which I personally have posted -- but not in respect of material that others wish to post as comments and which, in any case, I often strongly disagree with.

Particularly during my sojourns in South Africa, it may not be possible for me to perform the moderation function speedily. I regret the necessity of moderation but it has been rendered inevitable by the behaviour of a particular commentator whose contributions will always and without exception be rejected.

No correspondence will be entered into regarding moderation decisions.
