:::::::: I have strong views on this man, his party and his political intentions to destroy my country, never once on wikipedia have i attempted to hide my political views, they are open for all to see. But this is not about me, it is about the fact many reliable media sources have covered this confession and it goes to the heart of his political career and in the section on his first time as SNP leader it mentions about Independence / devolution balance and how it bothered some hardcore nationalists, so perhaps it should be mentioned this time too?  I agree it should be taken up at the SNP page too, but it is more about his own comments and leadership of the party.  
 :::::::: Of course there is also a wider issue about the article as a whole, It is clearly biased with absolutely nothing about his time in office as first minister, which has been full of controversy. After reading through the whole article it contains just 2 things potentially critical of alex salmond. The independence / devolution policy change where hard core nats were critial of him and the opposition to NATOs actions in ending a genocide. That is it. Im going to have to compare this with articles on other political leaders, i bet those articles have a bit more balance.
