Sturgeon reality tv show?

17 replies

Randomchat · Yesterday 13:38

Nicola Sturgeon is doing a politics reality tv show where she pretends to be the leader of the country and makes big decisions.

If it wasn't reported on the BBC I'd think it was April Fools Day.

Fuck's sake.

I actually thought it was a spoof when I saw it online. Sturgeon and Gove...a marriage made in heaven.

Bloody hell.

I actually think it'll be very watchable, and she'll likely be really good at it as she's decisive.

I despise her for what she did to women's rights in Scotland, but I think she's very canny and this will be a good show.

@KvotheTheBloodless I might have agreed at one point, but she's not that canny if she couldn't spot what was right under her nose with her soon-to-be-ex-husband.

Dear God, the woman has no dignity. Anything for a quick buck.

There was a podcast about this - it was really interesting. Simulated Russian attack on the UK and they had various people who had been part of government talking through decisions and then changing plans as new information came in. I think Jim Murphy was on the podcast version too but I don't remember.

Seriously though, on what planet would Gove be PM and Sturgeon deputy?

Deputy I don't think so she's the Mistress of control..her wye or nae wye.
Oh and she's a heid banger!!

Sturgeon is the most monstrous lying corrupt woman hating shameless a*hole Scotland ever had the misfortune to have to put up with. She is pure evil,a disgrace to her sex and her country. Why would anyone watch this?

The Bell reported it like this Nicola Sturgeon has bagged herself a new role as Deputy Prime Minister… no, this isn’t a dream (or nightmare). Rather, she’s taking on an acting gig in the new Sky series “The Wargame”. The immersive documentary places former high-profile politicians into a fictional war scenario to see how they might respond to a Russian attack. Sturgeon isn’t the only big name, with Micheal Gove — Ex-Tory MP and cabinet jack-of-all-trades turned editor of The Spectator — and Jim Murphy, former Scottish Labour leader turned lobbyist also participating. While some have expressed their disapproval, including Jackie Baillie’s barbed line, “I very much doubt it’s the first time she’s [Nicola Sturgeon] dabbled in fiction”, it appears Sturgeon is beginning to solidify herself in the media, bolstering her bookish credentials.

I thought it was a drama at first and Nicola had taken up acting 😂 it is daft though, and i bet it will be so cringey.

She who must be obeyed ,she's full on loony tunes.

Will their exes have parts too? They could arrive midway through the series Love Island style. Or they could do some voice commentary. (If that's allowed from the clink.)

I've said elsewhere that I now understand why she needed the camper as a battle bus - the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards are stationed in Leuchars (Fife) so she was just being ready by having the van parked in Dunfermline.
