These committees are pointless, yes, the highlight the incompetence of every level of the process, but there's no recourse, no one's accountable and the sham rumbles on!

These Ferries are a perfect mess and a metaphor for the entire reign of SNP that being too long and too expensive, over budget and a complete mess, well done SNP you have proven you cannot even build a ferry on time and in budget.

This utter shipshow is fairly and squarely at the feet of the SNP. Yet no sackings or prosecutions. Why not?

Sorry Scottish Sun but it is! Fewer passengers, fewer cars and fewer lorries. Of course I blame the SNP education system.😀

No wonder the U.K. doesn't build ships anymore. Why wasn't this ferry built overseas correctly from a yard with a good reputation? Some people need to be investigated for awarding a contract without cost benefit analysis. This stinks.

When something like that is designed, it’s part of the process to design it to hold a certain amount of vehicles and passengers. They know how many rivets are in the Forth Railway Bridge, and this lot cannot say how many seats are in their toilet.

As someone else has commented using LESS when it should be FEWER. Not only cannot this politician get it right neither can so-called "journalists". A few more irritating habits/errors : Starting every sentence with "so". Using "of" when it should be "have". Saying "haitch" when it should be "aitch". Everything in life is now "challenging" apparently. "Prostrate" when the user means prostate. That always amuses me.

If this committee had real teeth they could ream the SNP, Ferguson Marine, CMAL and Cal-Mac. It would be a real laugh if Sturgeon and Swinney did the official launch and something goes haywire.

Talking about the max number of passengers is irrelevant. It’s the minimum amount of passengers the ferry is able to carry that is of importance.

As per usual, Westminster's dirty fingers are all over the Ferry fiasco, it was the British Civil Service which choose to award the company the contract, not the Scottish Government. Stuart Blantyne, now based in Australia, presented plans for Ferries to be built in Scottish Yards, which not only cost less to build but were also far more efficient using some 60% less fuel. These got knocked back. I was shocked to learn that Scotland's Civil Service are actually under the control of Westminster.

@annemcniell6956 8 ай бұрын

In the past I was a passenger on most cal Mac ferries, it’s so sad to see this service struggling because of a rogue Scottish government. I feel for the Scottish people suffering because of them, good luck Scotland on restoring your ferries, I’m in favour of you getting your own rule buy those people in power are disgraceful to Scotland.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
