wow.

That was for berk's fishing rod and cooked chicken comment! Actual lol.

Not before time, hopefully prosecuted n share a cell with isla bryson type.

What’s ‘derogatory’ about that? ^^

And why are you responding on behalf of @Puzzledanddissatisfied ?

There is something wrong about Justin Trudeau. He makes me feel very ill at ease.

Yes @Mummyoflittledragon but the other two more than make up for him.

I really thought she stepped down becuase she made such a hash of the self ID thing. Apparently not

Why do you all hate her so much please?

I mean this as a genuine question BTW! I'm not across this story.

Sure you do.

Totally agree!

Because she gives zero shits about the safety and rights of women?

Have you read the article in the OP? For starters.

I don’t hate her. But if she is suspected of misappropriating money it’s right that she’s investigated. And if found guilty then that’s very serious.

I’m fed up of the sleaze and corruption in politics in general.

You've got to admit, that was some long-term strategizing to make sure she and her husband could share the same cell.

Hahahaha, better late than never to fall so hard from that high almighty pedestal.

Because she’s a disgrace to Scotland. Stokes up hatred and divisions. And last but not least, does not care about women’s concerns and rights, dismissed them with a “they’re not valid”. Makes my blood boil.

I'm stealing this for work conversations about it 😁😁😁

Unionists and transphobics mostly . Or people down in England who never stepped foot in Scotland or know anything about Scottish politics or Scottish life

Why do I dislike Nicola Sturgeon?

As First Minister, she has presided over -

The Scottish Prison Service (an Executive Agency of the Scottish Government) having a policy in which convicted male sex offenders were routinely placed in the female prison estate. I say 'were' but it's a continuing policy.

Has routinely ignored and denied evidence from women's rights groups in Scotland regarding the GRR bill, calling any concerns 'not valid', many of which have been very publicly shown to be very much valid, while only taking evidence and 'expert knowledge' from organisations dependant on SG funding.

Made no statement condemning the rape threats made against Joanna Cherry (SNP), which were made by a member of the SNP, the political party of which Nicola Sturgeon was the Head.

Financial irregularities abound - the campervan, the £107,000 'loan', the missing £600,000.

The failures of the SNP - the ferries, the fact Scotland have the highest level of drug deaths in Europe regarding which the SG 'took their eyes off the ball', the ridiculous DRS, the failure to appoint a Women's Health Minister almost two years on.

The ridiculous pandering to an unelected party in order to keep a 'power sharing' agreement going.

There's so much more...

She has been let go and fully cooperating as she said she will from day one . I would say she is a lot more accountable than any of the loons in Westminster so all the right wing unionists on this thread are throwing rocks at a glass roof

Why did she have to have her collar felt to start the cooperation, in that case?

It was a tounge in cheek comment poking fun at snp policy and the irony of a situation if sturgeon found herself in that situation. The only people that should be housed in a women's prison are those born with female genitalia not big Jim who's now decided he's Julie because he's on a bit of lipstick and a dress.

Quite. Cooperating with a criminal investigation isn't the sanctimonious point people seem to think it is. It's the basics.
The problem at this point is what required a criminal investigation in the first place.

That's it in a nutshell.

Well informed @Trez1510 very few people in wider UK appreciate that Scotland has always had a separate legal system.

Being impressed because a politician is arrested and turns up is a low bar
