Scottish Secretary RIP?

September 4, 2008 by  

Today’s Scotsman reports that the the post of Scottish Secretary is set to be scrapped at Westminster as a consequence of the IRA being declared redundant as a paramilitary organisation, which would make Des Browne (left) the last holder of the historic Cabinet position.

Personally, the story has been trailed so many times before – and always by ‘senior’ Government or Whitehall sources – that I’m a bit cynical. However, watch this space!
