First Minister

[maggiebee]

I listened to the First Minister yesterday. She spoke without faltering throughout and was clear, concise and precise. She answered all the questions head on and had evidence and robust information to support each response. Compare this performance to our Prime Minister’s recent embarrassing rambling.
I am full of admiration for Nicola Sturgeon.

Mind you, don’t knock “8%”

That’s nearly an armful :-)

Do you realise how much tax and duties are paid in whisky alone?

Her daily Covid bleatings were truly pathetic. Her determination to add her own slant onto whatever the government said must have been obvious to everyone. A dreadful woman, Quite power mad.

To Anneasquith. Concerned with Scotland - no, concerned with the SNP, she constantly conflates the two. The SNP is authoritarian, ultra-Woke and now in thrall to the garden gnome and his green friends. All the while, basics like education are falling apart.

Written by a "Proud" Scotsman in today's Express:

'Given the harm she has caused and is still causing between our country and mainly the English, I for one don't want her to have the privilege of walking at her own leisure. I'd much prefer to see her led out of Bute House forcibly. Compelled to relinquish office. Then we can get back to restoring good relations again with our neighbours. The woman has a lot to answer for.'

[anneasquith]

She is the elected minister atm. The voters are free to change that at next election ,

It's not hatred from me Anne, just dislike. But it's very obvious she doesn't like us.

[anneasquith]

If you mean ‘ us’ as in English people lottie, trust me you are wrong. Or maybe someone has proof that NS hates English people.?

[THECORBYLOON]

TORATORATORA has claimed many times she hates the English but each time I have challenged him for an example, he's failed to produce anything.

/Her and her cabinet tend to be concerned for Scotland only ./

Anne, that's the problems for us, Scotland is part of the UK and as such should be concerned about all the UK, but obviously Scotland as a priority. They receive an income from the UK so obviously we are interested in what goes on there. The SNP are extremist with a meglomaniac first minister and that concern. s us.

In my view devolution was one of the biggest mistakes made. All this was bound to happen with a leader such as Sturgeon. It would seem that her biggest aim is glory for herself.

[anneasquith]

Well lottie, I’m quite shocked at your post. The only thing I would point out to all. N S is the party leader of the SNP.

[naomi24]

Lottie, //It would seem that her biggest aim is glory for herself. //

I couldn't agree more.

[THECORBYLOON]

Can you give examples of the SNP's extremism?

[anneasquith]

The SNP are extremists? Maybe you could point out or show evidence where this extremism is evident.
TCL. Ttt is a lost cause .

[pat2604]

Anne, don't be shocked. Perhaps extremist is the wrong or exaggeration, but every time I hear any of them speak in parliament I bristle. I feel like shocking people today!! In a bad mood!!

[pat2604]

And repetitive!

[Bobbisox1]

I see her as a bigot, I don’t like bigots so I don’t like her!

I’m still waiting on evidence that NS hates the English and a megalomaniac?
