    Various reasons suggested by EN - inc Mortonhall.

    He is/was in charge of SfC responsible for roads etc.

    I think the EEN is enjoying this a bit too much. Classic door-stepping photo. Description of his socks. Deadbolts slamming home....

    Yes.

    There is a sort of 'tabloid journalism glee' to it.

    With the NoW gone, someone has to keep up the tradition...

    The only socks you are allowed to mention are those of Jon Snow and Andrew Rawnsley.

    "He is/was in charge of SfC responsible for roads etc" - SfC are in charge of pretty much *everything*!

    He's been a hate-figure amongst EEN commenters for years - even more reviled than cyclists!

    I thought the EEN hack and the readers would be reacting with glee the second it was reported by STV.local in my Twitter feed this morning.

    The doorstepping photo really wasn't flattering at all!
