Sturgeon has gone and left the mess for someone else to sort out.

[life on mars]

Yes and has taken the Country backwards, someone else can try and sort out her mess.

She basically hijacker Scottish peoples negativeness towards Westminster for her own end not her people .

You would think you get your country on a very sound financial footing ,strong health and education areas ,low drugs and alcohol deaths , life expectancy , then you decide to perhaps seek independence , the truth be told she had no real policy other than lets leave .

Ian Blackford's father died yesterday.

That’s 5 words

Seriously, have the Tories had a leader who was respected on the world stage since Thatcher?

Of course Labour had Tony Blair - well respected and led the rest of Europe in a dodgy war. It would have been interesting to see what would have happened if Corbyn had become PM. The Tories haven't done much better but I would take some of them over the two previously mentioned.

That transgender bill will be the Scottish Brexit, they will argue about whether should they be in the same prison, same toilets, enter the same games, are murders and rapists different from the other ones, can they teach PE, and use the changing rooms for the next 50 years.

That's it?

It's not just Tories who aren't fans.

The big loss of votes from Labour to the SNP in Scotland had a massive effect on the ability of Labour to win a majority at Westminster

I hope that the departure of sturgeon weakens their position as in many ways they are a one trick pony

I don't think Scotland could last long on its own and those that think Wales could are utterly deluded .

Basically everything in this post is incorrect.

Especially the bit about being a one trick pony in 'Many ways' not thought through really.

The SNP need to carry on its independence position. If it doesn't, it'll die and another party will grow and take over.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

It's all correct

The decline of the labour party in Scotland took 80 seats away from the UK labour party and enabled the tory scum to govern since 2010

The Scots will soon begin to realise that Scottish independence is not going to work and join in with the anti tory vote to defeat them in Westminster

I don't care if it dies as long as there is an alternative to vote for

I don't care if Plaid dies either , I just don't want the Tories in power

Are you for real? The Scottish support for independence keeps growing. I guarantee that if the SNP don't install a pro independence leader it'll fail and another party will emerge.

It is , as are all nationalist parties

One trick ponies

No it doesn't

It's reached its peak a long time ago its on the wane now which is why she's jumped ship

If you don't want the Tories in power, why are you happy to let England have the major say in general elections that affect Wales? England is generally a Tory country. Whatever England wants, Britain gets.

Nonsense.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Plaid are crap

Every election they and their groupies tell us the time is here !

But it isn't

I would only vote Plaid if it was to oust a tory

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Nonsense.

A few thousand people walking around with yes Cymru banners is not going to give you lot what you want

Like Europe the best way for Wales to fight its corner is within the United Kingdom

It's far from perfect but the nationalists running the show is a horrific portent

No it isn't

More people vote for opposition parties than tory

It's the electoral system that's broken

Lets hope J K Rowling takes over ,as she played a wonderful effort to topple this supposed leader

To be fair were not all living in poverty , folks standards of living are way better than in previous decades , we may not like their decisions , you do however have to consider they have been in and out of power much longer than any opposition party ?

Politcial equation : Wales / Scotland = dislike the English = vote for anyone but Tory = poor standards of developed government management.

why wouldn't Scotland "last long" ? what do you think would happen to it?
Other similar sized European countries do just fine, why do you think that Scotland couldn't?

Ireland was one of the poorest parts of the UK when it became independent, and no doubt people like you if it was happening today would be saying that they could never make it on their own - fast forward 100 years it is a richer country than the UK and soon to be absorbing a chunk of it.

Sludgey is way off on this one. For Scotland read Norway of 50 years ago, for Wales read Ireland of 50 years ago. Slavish adoration of Labour is not a path forward for Wales.
