The other three political parties are preparing to gang up on the First Minister, causing him maximum discomfort.The Tories say they will move tomorrow to have the Scottish Government's actions over the Trump plan examined by a Holyrood committee, with Mr Salmond called to give evidence. Labour and the Liberal Democrats are backing that idea.The First Minister last night welcomed the move as an opportunity to explain he had done nothing wrong.But Mr Trump is said to be increasingly annoyed at the "meddling" of politicians, warning the "malicious attacks" could scupper the project, in Aberdeenshire, once and for all.

Reader comments: Don't vote for socialism

For those of you who continue on a daily basis to throw out the police, fire dept etc as the reason to take this country into complete socialism don't understand the concept of socialism.

More significant, perhaps, than the candidates' totals in the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary are the numbers of citizens participating in these contests: approximately twice as many Democrats as Republicans, and an extraordinarily large proportion of them are young people.
