Mr Ainsworth

'Be thankful that nobody could call Trump corrupt.'

If you were a football manager having a bad season you would have been sacked years ago for prevarication, obfuscation and generally being a deceptive so and so whose word no one would trust.

For when discussing the issue of corruption in Scotland, you try to divert attention by bringing Trump into the argument.

Firstly if the citizens and voters of the US have the same opinion of Trump as you they would not have re-elected him.

Do you think they were dumb and conned into doing so ?

(Our US Special Correspondent Mr Ixer might help you here).

Apparently in the Wikilist corruption Index the US is ranked 29th with the UK coming in at 20th.

(That pesky Farage again ruining our good name I guess).

Israel is 35th.

And we know how much Wikipedia influences your thinking and opinion.

Denmark is top.

Other notables -

Jordan 56th
China 76th
South Africa 81st
India 91st
Ukraine 104th
Pakistan 136th
Egypt 130th
Nigeria 142nd
Bangladesh 150th
Iran 153rd
Russia 157th
Syria 172nd
Libya 177th
Sudan and Somalia joint 181st

Quite an eclectic list.

Anyone like to offer an opinion on what many have in common ?
