The Senators of the College of Justice said corroboration, unique to Scotland, provided a "major safeguard" against miscarriages of justice. And a court case should never be decided on who tells the best story on the day.
It should be decided on evidence.
Interestingly Judges also said removing the rule would lead to "decreasing confidence in the legal system" and to lower rates of conviction generally, juries can be fickle especially when it is pointed out that there is only someone’s word to condemn a person.
That kind of system is reminiscent of a fascist state.
So is Mr Laird accusing England of being a fascist state? or anywhere else which doesn't require corroboration?

That lack of confidence is a plank why the people of Scotland will when the independence referendum vote comes want to stay in the UK.
Fine unbiased viewpoint there

At present we need the protection of the UK Supreme Court.
which is a fascist state, according to Mr Laird's analogy
