One of the first comments that he made was "I have a hard act to follow, and I see my good friend Alistair Carmichael in the public gallery".
Which we find strange as when council leader he sat through meetings chaired by Alistair, with all of his weaknesses.
Provost Fletcher having viewed your performance last night we are of the opinion that you will most likely follow on Alistair's act very well.
Throughout the meeting he could not work the on / off button for his microphone.
When speaking he switched it off, when not talking he switched it on.
After a while Eamonn Daly had to lean over and show him how to work the push button. (Must have been deja vu for him, as he required to do the same for Alistair over the past five years)

Much more to come including a possible temper tantrum from Danny Devlin.......
