 | 'This Prime Minister deserves to be impeached and we with others will present the case that he should be required to answer. What is impeachment - well let us describe it as a weapon of mass democracy - the final democratic deterrent against the abuse and misuse of executive power. This Prime Minister should be drummed from office and we will use each and every opportunity to remove him.' SNP leader, Alex Salmond MP, 25 th September 2004. |  |
