I read a convincing book in my school library that argued the crash pilot was not Hess, but a Doppelganger. Hess had been shot in the chest, but x-rays of the pilot's chest showed no trauma. Queried in Spandau jail, the pilot said 'too late, too late.'

@agcolehamilton These are the actual figures, 2,640,892 for SNP and Greens and 2,624,758 for Con/Labour/LD. Say what you want about these figures but don’t misquote them

56% of MSPs have been elected from pro-indyref2 parties. That sounds like a mandate. #indyref2
