It's difficult for him to say anything really. He doesn't want to upset the Americans by supporting the decision, and he doesn't want to condemn it - especially if it is going to come out at some point that he had anything to do with it.
As it is he's settled for being very angry about the scenes at the Libyan airport, which is a kind of half baked way of appearing to condemn the release while actually avoiding the question. Nobody's fooled by it.
He hasn't even got the bottle to stand firm and say that he's not going to give his opinion on the release because it's entirely a matter for the Scottish parliament. He just says nothing.

It is disgusting that on such a serious matter as this, it was not left to the British Parliament to make the decision whether or not to release this mass murderer.
How can we possibly be called the United Kingdom, when we have one part of it who when it suits them, wish to be classed as an independent country.
Time for England to claim it's independence, and all Scottish MPs to be booted out of our parliament.

I would go along with that aog, simply because Sotland wanted Devolution, I don't think they are happy either, being still governed by Westminster in real terms, there are a lot of Scottish people in Parliement but then there are also a hell of a lot dong our weather forecasts too,we can't send everyone back...lol, they are some cracking Scots around

Is repulsed even a proper word?
Yes, take the time to look it up.
re�pulse (r-pls)
tr.v. re�pulsed, re�puls�ing, re�puls�es
1. To drive back; repel.
2. To rebuff or reject with rudeness, coldness, or denial.
3. Usage Problem To cause repugnance or distaste in.
n.
1. The act of repulsing or the state of being repulsed.
2. Rejection; refusal.
Usage Note: A number of critics have maintained that repulse should only be used to mean "to drive away, spurn," as in He rudely repulsed their overtures, and not to mean "to cause repulsion in," as in Their hypocrisy repulsed me. In recent years, however, there has been an increasing tendency to use repulse in the latter sense. Reputable literary precedent exists for this usage, and given that the stigmatized use of repulse is parallel to the unexceptionable uses of repulsion and repulsive, the frequency of its appearance is not surprising. Still, writers who want to avoid repulse may choose repel, a synonym that is perfectly acceptable.

Hey dancairo, as I have already said earlier, I don't refer to the Scottish Nation at all, only GB wether he was Russian or anything else, he doesn't do the Lockerbie cause any good at all, I realise there always has been some kind of a rivalry but no side is better than the other, yes I said about the weathermen/woman being mostly Scotish and one can only assume they are better
at it than we are, I don't get into rants about other Nationalities, least of all our neighbours over the border
