As political scandals go, nothing sums up the years of confident over-promises made by Sturgeon and her administration better than this. Fergusons has designed and built CalMac ferries for decades. That’s fine if public money is spent wisely. But the Ferguson debacle is yet another example of money being poured down a very big hole.
