   As a Scot, I believe this was a wrong thing to do. I am very ashamed that this has been done.

   He was tried and found guilty – he should have stayed in prison.

   No one showed the passengers or the people of Lockerbie compassion – why should he have this privilege denied to so many.

   There may be doubt to whether he is innocent or not, that’s another matter; the fact “we” allowed him to leave a guilty man – guilty in who’s eyes – only ours – certainly not his countrymen.

   I believe this ha been a done deal from the start, whether negotiated my Tony Blair or the like to get trade with Libya we may never know but I do believe there is more to this than meets the eye.

   If something good wil lcome out of this, it may be to turn Scottish voters against the SNP and return us to a better social conscience.
