Michael Crick said last night that Craig Oliver came with no baggage. This is almost true about the previously apolitical “workaholic”. In 1998 his father was forced out of his job as one of Scotland top coppers after a bungled investigation into a child’s murder by a paedophile. Dr Ian Oliver, the former Chief Constable of Grampian Police quit after he was busted shagging someone else’s wife in a rural car park. For three grand you can book the disgraced copper for an after dinner speech.
