Would the temptation of being different been too much and similar route to sturgeon or would he have been a bit more pragmatic than sturgeon or heaven forbid worse than sturgeon? or head and shoulders above Johnson?.....especially now, not so much last year.

Can't say I've read much if any comment from him about COVID apart from on the steps of the court when he used it as cover to not say much about his not guilty.

I think he would have been a better leader as opposed to a teller or scientific lap dog.

I think he would have trusted people a bit more and more prepared to back his gut instincts.
I do not know about Covid but if Wee Eck had been in charge he would have been in favour of Cambo oilfield getting the go ahead.
Wee Eck knows that an independent Scotland needs the taxation from oil and gas production to help balance the books and he would never have joined up with the Greens who are anti business.
Sturgeon is also anti business hence her pact with Wee Pat of the Greens.
