Nicol shoots down his own policy
Well done to Michael Crow for putting Mr Thingey on their council tax policy on STV's leaders debate.
Nigel Nicol looked like a rabbit in the headlamps when Mike put the question to him first on Council Tax. Obviously Neil Nicol thought Alex Salmond was going to get it.
But it was a wonderfully stumbling performance as he had to say he supported a Local Income Tax before saying the SNP's sums didn't add up...on a Local Income Tax. As Enterprise MinisterNebulous Nicol knows something about sums not adding up.

"No Mr Thingey. There are five people on this bench."
