The pupils of St Ninians Primary School in Stirling asked members of the Scottish Parliament to
use more Scots words. Yesterday, MSPs agreed to help. The winner in meeting the challenge is clear:
Fergus Ewing (SNP) then rose to his feet to announce: "The word I choose to highlight is ‘bluffelheid’."
And would this wonderful word be useful for politicians? A "bluffelheid", Mr Ewing told us, is:
defined as "a person who has a very large head but a very small brain".
The presumption of innocence is being whittled away by our government. I suggest that all politicians must be assumed to be "bluffelheids" until they can prove to the contrary.
