They seem a bit desperate for a hate figure, 'so he'd do'.

It doesn't look remotely like him.

I doubt most guys look like Guy Fawkes did either.

We don't have photographs of Guy Fawkes to base them on. Salmond has had his ugly mug on TV enough recently for people to make a fair go of an effergy.

Yeah, but bearing in mind they are at least six weeks late completing the thing, I doubt their artist ability was all that great in the first place.

The bloke is an odious little gobsh!te but no longer active and out of the public eye.

My first thought, when reading the article was "why did they bother?".
