DEWAR'S DREAM DERIDED BY MANSON: Shirley Manson ain't happy with Hollyrood House: she thinks it's ugly and too expensive:

Rumour has it that it is absolutely beautiful on the inside.

'Let's hope so, because it looks like a dog's dinner on the outside. 'It really breaks my heart whenever I look at it.

'Edinburgh is one of the most architecturally stunning cities you can ever hope to see.

'The city is a treasure, so why have we sunk so much money into erecting a building that fails to acknowledge the history and the beauty, the mood and the grace of its surroundings?'
It was supposed to have cost £40million. It is totally beyond my comprehension how the estimates could have possibly been so far off the mark.

'That all said, at least this monstrous squandering of public funds has now been put behind us and there is nothing else for it but for the elected politicians inside our Parliament to begin to truly justify the expense.

'My country deserves nothing less.'

Oddly, the Sunday Mail thinks this is Shirl "changing her tune" since she played at the festivities to mark the winning of the devolved Parliament - lthough complaining about architecture is surely not the same thing as dismissing the concept of what goes on inside, is it?
