Hamish Macdonell - Fun with Sir Sean

NEVER let it be said that the Tories pass up an opportunity to have a dig at Scotland's most famous absentee Scotsman and Nationalist, Sir Sean (Bahamas) Connery.
Former Tory leader David McLetchie took the opportunity in a debate this morning to praise the James Bond actor for taking part in the Homecoming advert for VisitScotland.
The he added: "I am sure we would all look forward to the permanent homecoming of Sir Sean Connery and no one more so than John Swinney, in that the resumption of tax residence in Scotland by Sir Sean would go a long way to plugging the gaping financial hole in his local income tax plans. Could Sir Sean once again ride to the rescue of the Scottish National Party in its hour of financial crisis? On this occasion I don’t think so, but you never know."
Ouch.
