    This is why we were all better off with Sturgeon

    No this is why the dictatorship style leadership approach doesn't work in the long term. We need a proven, talented, experienced, self-confident leader who is willing to surround him/herself with the best talents that are willing to challenge the leader when he/she is wrong. Not seeing it at the moment, which is a failure of Sturgeon, given any high quality organisation is always looking at succession planning

    The SNP differs slightly, on account that the party is effectively split into two parts. I’m sure there’s a few in the Westminster group that would love a wee shot but aren’t prepared to do a stint in Holyrood. Not enough showbiz

    I think that’s the reason NS stayed for so long, not because SHES A POWER HUNGRY B1TCH

    But she committed political suicide by trying to force an obvious lie into law.

    Not the act of a sane human being.

    Onwards and upwards with either Kate or Ash.

    Not happy about the God bothering but she'll do.
    She can leave the god bothering shyte at the door of the parliament.

    I understand there will be issues with some policies for her and her beliefs, but nothing that shouldn't be insurmountable.

    Not sure I follow. She stayed so long because the party is split across MP's and MSP's, which it has been since 1999 and since when MP's know they can't by leader of the SNP (other than Salmond for a brief spell when he fudged the rules)? Or she stayed so long as there was no obvious successor, which she largely was responsible for?

    .
    The law that was passed in our parliament and supported by more than just the SNP.

    Good on the tories in London though for stepping into to the breach and keep us right, where would we be without them.

    I know your feelings on the matter DD, but it will become law sooner rather than later.

    The first such test will be whether she approves a challenge to the blocking of the GRR Bill, given she was one of the signatories (along with Ash Regan) to the letter to the Scottish Government expressing concern over such bill

    The second part, which is a situation created by the first

    It can become law all it likes, it’s always going to be a lie though.
