Derek Mackay, Scottish Nationalist Finance Secretary in the Scottish Government until he resigned on 06 February following a texting scandal with a teenage boy, hasn't been heard of by either the public or his constituents since. Yet, he continues to draw his MSP's salary.
Not only that, but, by the time the Scottish Parliament will have been dissolved in March 2021 for the next Scottish Election, also he will have withdrawn some £138,000 of public money basically for disappearing and doing nothing on behalf of his constituents.
Now, that particular gravy train is what we call a Major Public Scandal. But, what have his former colleagues in the Scottish Parliament - those whiter-than-white Scottish Nationalists - done about it?
Nothing, to be precise. No wonder MSPs are held in contempt as the most cravenly supine people on earth. There but for the grace of God go they.
