What is absolutely insane, & I’m not accusing you personally of it but it’s elsewhere on this thread, is that wee Krankie has it in for the NE because they voted No. Its barking mad & Im not entertaining it.
You continue to miss the point, either deliberately or not only you will know.

She applied much stricter restrictions on Aberdeen for public health reasons, and you know what she was absolutely RIGHT to do so, the figures coming down as quickly as they did prove she was right.

She has applied much less strict restrictions on the five west of Scotland areas for what can only be assumed to be political reasons. If she truly was only focused on public health she would have applied tougher restrictions given cases have gone up rather than down in those regions since these restrictions were imposed. They are clearly insufficient given we have not seen the same level of reduction we saw in Aberdeen, even allowing for the student impact. She was and continues to be WRONG to not impose a travel restriction. It is patently absurd to have the same restrictions apply in those five areas that continue to have very high case rates compared with pretty much anywhere North of Stirling or South of Lanarkshire

But it's okay as nothing Nicola does is political with regard to the pandemic.
