Boris booted out of the tory-master race.

My bet is a short term, half Scot, to try and save the union

Shes a horrible rabid troll with sh@te hair, everytime my eyes or ears lock on to her i fill up with rage

She's from Glasgow.
I think that might be part of it.

Mrs Krankie has pulled off the amazing acheivement of bring even more annoying than fat Salmond. I can't change the TV channel fast enough when I see her ugly mug appear.

On reflection, I think today's raising of the level and tone of the debate has killed this thread stone dead for me.

I'll raise the tone a bit more, Mrs Krankie looks like she is in the middle of a *** change, but I can't decide in which direction.

Not to be a naysayer

But a - she's not actually in a position to DO anything about Brexit.
b - she hasn't actually done anything but go to Brussels and get told nae luck hen, which from a negotiating position isn't great

This week alone there's been a resignation from the nonce enquiry over govt interference and her own right hand man and newly appointed educ sec has gone woah there's way too much bureaucracy in schools, he's been the one signing the cheques, and he didn't have a clue.

All I have said and others is it's time to stop holding referendums or threatening them, and time to get on with fixing Scotland's problems - is that too much to ask.

Again though, what's the Government doing? Why is she getting all the flak about the way she looks? Who gives **** how she looks.

[The Trading Sheep]

is it just me that canna f@cking stick Sturgeon

No, like you I do not like her one bit.

This is all a very handy distraction for them for their failings in government.

Solutions to brexit? Are you for real? What in lala land would that be?

As far as I can see, she and the committee are looking at all they can to allow Scotland to remain in the EU because the people that she was elected to serve want this. Am I wrong? I also see that there seems to be nothing they can do.

That's no solution to brexit. There is no solution to brexit.

I really think some folk still don't get that this is happening. There will be no do-over. There will be no negotiations.
Single market = freedom of movement.

I agree about having your own take on it but there's one thing being of one opinion or another re the vote itself, where every vote is as valid as the other. Another thing is deluding ourselves into believing there is some middle ground to be found or we can negotiate something different or find a "solution"! That's utter nonsense.

What are you on about? The UK has just voted to leave the EU. Scotland voted to remain part of the UK less than two years ago. There will clearly be a negotiation between the government of the UK and the remaining EU members as to the future relationship. If there is another referendum, Scotland will need to choose between remaining part of the UK, maintaining a relationship with the EU as per the outcome of said negotiations, and leaving the UK and applying for membership of the EU. I completely understand that it is in the interests of the SNP to distance itself from the negotiations between the UK and the EU given that they clearly have no desire to be part of the UK irrespective of what is agreed. There should be a second referendum on independence once it is clear what our choices are but it isn't a given that independence will be the best option in two years time or that Scotland will even vote for independence. The SNP are basically saying that they are entitled to completely ignore the outcome of the previous independence referendum due to the result of the EU referendum but voting to remain part of the EU as part of the UK is not the same as voting to leave the UK to become part of the EU. There will be a choice and the SNP are currently gearing up to put all of their eggs in one basket.

To be fair to myself I did write more than just she has sh@te hair. Her priorities are wrong and her small man syndrome attitude doesn't endear her to me or a lot of others

[Aldo1983]

Well we might soon have an Edinburgh/Aberdeen hybrid PM in Gove so you won't have to just worry about a "Weegie" too much longer. Or we might have May I suppose. She's nice right?

Even the Daily Mail, the bastion of the leave movement, is turning against the Tories. They won't be happy if May gets it given her record on "immigration".
