    You need to put aside your hatred of all things SNP and your love of all things Tory and take a proper and clearer view of what's happening Islay.
    Nicola was furious that her daily live press conference which was being televised live on BBC1 Scotland was ending and she complained bitterly that not everyone had access to the internet.
    I find this a very strange comment especially that if people want further information about the current Covid-19 virus they have to access it from the Public Health Scotland website.
    You may think that the SNP controlled Scottish Government is wonderful. I certainly do not.
    There is a well known saying ‘it will all come out in the wash’.

    I was happy that the daily briefings were done away with. On one occasion I went from BBC1 to BBC2 to BBC Scotland and it was live on all three channels. Absolutely ridiculous IMO.

    I can't remember saying the SNP controlled Scottish government is wonderful. Perhaps you can enlighten me as to why you believe this to be the case.

    Worth noting that not everyone can get the information they need about Covid-19 from the Public Health Scotland website as, believe it or not, not everyone has access to the internet.

    I'll repeat though that, in my opinion, you need to put aside your hatred of all things SNP and your love of all things Tory and take a proper and clearer view of what's happening. Your constant vilifying of anything SNP whilst not criticising the at least equivalent incompetence being shown at Westminster is a bit ridiculous in all honesty.

    It will all come out in the wash and, although I'm not their greatest fans, I'm pretty sure the Scottish government won't come out of it any worse than your mates in London.

    Did Herr Sturgeon not say Scotland was on course to be COVID free by the end of June?

    Although this is slightly off topic Nicola has today been ‘found out’ withholding information about a meeting she had with Alex Salmond’s aide
    where she was told about harassment complaints against Alex Salmond and she forgot to mention it in her written evidence.
    No wonder the SNP and Scottish Government were trying to avoid having to hand over written information to the current Alex Salmond inquiry.
    God knows how Nicola Sturgeon thinks that she can run an independent Scotland when she cannot remember a meeting with Alex Salmond’s aide regarding a harassment complaint against the former First Minister of Scotland.
    It will be interesting to see what else comes out in the wash,
