No answer from Salmond in otherwise engaging debate

Someone’s been hacking Alex Salmond’s phone. He won’t admit it – that would be a disgrace to the British constitution – but you can tell. The First Minister has been getting the wrong messages.

What’s worse, they’re old messages. One says that Rupert Murdoch is just another businessman. A second runs that shouting the word “jobs” is an answer to every question. A third has it that dubious behaviour by critics excuses your own foibles.
