Listen to Nicola Sturgeon warning her SNP leadership to keep their mouths shut.
How much did Nicola Sturgeon know about SNP finances? Peter Murrell, her own husband, has reportedly been arrested and charged with embezzlement.
And to think this women had the audacity to critises Westminster. Ffs hypocrisy at it arrogant best. Awful women. Hubby is the fall guy for now.
She's not a happy camper!Quote:

I hope that is clear? :thumbup:
The same Sturgeon who ordered schools to saw off the bottom of fire doors during Covid for ventilation :hehe:Quote:

Yes, that Sturgeon.Quote:

Surprised you are still parroting the Scottish Tories sneering attack line. There are many better reasons to denounce Sturgeon and the SNP - but for me she and Drakeford, the SNP and Welsh Labour, were head and shoulders above the Westminster Tories when it came to leadership and public information during Covid (and beyond Covid too).
Sturgeon's government was cutting an inch off the bottom of some school doors. Johnson's government was handing multi millions of public money to their mates to produce unusable PPE.

Johnson's government were also supporting millions of people through furlough who otherwise would have been financially ruined by the inability to work. Reducing it down to "deals for their mates" is entirely disengenuous.Quote:

Generally speaking I think people looked to Westminster during that period. I remember numerous texts about 'boris speaking at 7pm' or whatever but people didn't say that about Drakeford.
More than anything, I'm in favour of devolution generally, including of healthcare, but I think a UK wide approach to COVID would have worked better even if that was never going to happen. For Sturgeon in particular it was just another opportunity to parrot lines about independence.

Your choice if you were more impressed with the BoJo Tories. (I really should have done that in a BTec Yoda 'voice' - but it's late!) :thumbup:Quote:
