Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I whakahaweatia a Alex Salmond inanahi i muri i tana whakamanamana i a ia e noho ana hei kaihanga kingi o Westminster i a ia e kai ana i te waipiro mawhero. I whakahaweatia a Alex Salmond inanahi i muri i tana whakamanamana kua riro ia ia hei kaihanga kingi o Westminster i a ia e kai ana i te waipiro mawhero me te kii ko ia "te tohu" ki a Nelson Mandela. I te mea kaore ano kia taea e ia te whakatau i tana hinganga i te reherenga, i haere tonu te Minita Tuatahi o mua ki te whakapohehe i tana kaiwhaiwhai a Nicola Sturgeon me te uiuinga whaiaro mo te maheni New Statesman. I mua noa iho i te pōti i te Pōti Whānui, i matapae ia ka noho ngā whetū i roto i te "whakataurite" mō tana hokinga toa ki Westminster hei kaituku mana, ā, i oati ia ki te whakatakoto i a Ed Miliband ki te Nama 10. I kii ano a Mr Salmond ka kore e taea e David Cameron te whakahaere mena kaore te kaiarahi o te Conservative e kaha ki te whakarite i te nuinga i te pooti a Mei. I te pō whakamutunga, ka mea a Tory MSP Alex Johnstone: <unk>Kia hiahia a Nicola Sturgeon kia noho puku a Alex Salmond.<unk> I te tīmatanga o tēnei tau, i whiua e Miss Sturgeon tana tīmatanga mā te tohe kia ārahi ia i ngā whiriwhiringa whai muri i te pōtitanga ki Westminster. Engari i haere tonu a Mr Salmond ki te whakapuaki i ana mahere inanahi, e kii ana ka hono tahi ia me nga mahi ki te "katoa" i nga Tories ma te pooti i tetahi whakamatau a Mr Cameron ki te tuku i te korero a te Kuini. I mea te tumuaki o te Pāti Mahi o Scotland a Jamie Glackin: "Ka murua koe mō te whakaaro he kaiārahi tonu ia o te SNP". E whakaatu ana te tuhinga a te New Statesman me pehea, i te wa o te uiui i Ranana, i tono a Mr Salmond i te waipiro mawhero hei whakanui i te whakarewatanga o ana pukapuka pooti pooti i tino tawai, me te haere tahi me te ika, te tiakarete me te peihana. I te pātai a te maheni ki a ia he aha te "tūnga hītori" i whakaritea e ia, ka whakahoki ia: "Nelson Mandela". Ko te katoa o taku whakatupuranga e kii ana i tena. <unk> Ka mea a Mr Johnstone: <unk>Kei te noho tere a Alex Salmond hei tangata whakahawea. Ko tēnei kōrero whakaharahara e tohu ana kua kore rawa te Pirimia o mua e aro ki te tūturu.<unk> I kii te Tory MSP ko te uiuinga he tohu ano ko Alex Salmond he...
Ko te kaiārahi o mua o te SNP a Alex Salmond e whakapae ana he 'kaikawe nohoanga o muri' Ka puta mai i muri i tana oati ki te whakatakoto i a Ed Miliband ki te Nama 10 i te pōtitanga o Mei. I matapae a ia ka rite ngā whetū mō tana hokinga ki Westminster. I 'tohu' hoki a Salmond ki te kaitautoko o te riri ki te apartheid, a Nelson Mandela. I whakatūpato a Tory MSP a Alex Johnstone kei te noho ia hei 'tino whakahawea'
