Jump To Comment: 1So who was Matthew McColl's girlfriend and why couldn't she be named in court? The judge must have accepted the question as admissible. So how come the witness got away with refusing to answer it? Why didn't the judge threaten to lock the witness up unless he answered the question?
The judge said he had to adjourn because he was required to do something. What was it? My guess would be that he saw the witness behind closed doors, asked for the woman's name, got it, and then said, "You're right. We couldn't possibly allow HER name to be mentioned in court".
Makes it sound as if she was a member of the royal family or something. Or maybe the Glasgow equivalent? That Tommy Sheridan is pals with Paul Ferris says it all.
Anyway, who was she?
And will Paul Ferris be a witness too?
Some of us have never forgotten that Sheridan threatened to "name names" of alleged poll tax rioters in 1990. Hundreds of people did get their names named and were jailed.
