He said:

"The figures today, and the recent incident in Blantyre, are a stark reminder of the growing threat which firearms pose to many of our communities.

But its ok for a snp politician to behave in a way which kenny would totally condemn in a unionist eh kenny?

Oh aye, its right up there with the Russian/Georgia situation!

Unfortunately, this is just the usually politics mumbo-jumbo nonsense which all political parties partake in.
