Nicola Sturgeon Home?

148 replies

TwentytoTwelve · 29/09/2026 19:32

When she was first minister of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon was often interviewed by the press outside of her home.

I can remember feeling shocked at how small her house was. I think it was semi-detached.

And it looked like it was on a housing estate or just an ordinary house.

Now, there is obviously nothing wrong with this. It’s just that I assumed because she was such a high-ranking politician and had so much influence and notoriety she would’ve lived in a better and larger home with more security.

And I’m not even saying this in relation to the money that her husband allegedly laundered from the SNP. Just in general, I would expect such a politician to have a better house.

Why do you think this is?

Oh no. We’re holding her accountable for her own obvious lies. HTH

Yes, because I'm sure the objective and totally unbiased cadre of NS obsessives on here are in a far better position than say, Police Scotland and COPFS to determine exactly what went on and to what, if any degree NS was complicit with PM's behaviour.

You are hilarious, so in that respect you "have helped" because I always welcome a good laugh.

Oh no the whole world is still laughing at Nicola Sturgeon and the ludicrous statements she made and kept making. Such obvious lies. Laughable.

You might be, but the vast majority of the world has long since moved on.

Again.... rent-free...

It’s all still all over the papers. Did you not notice that her crook ex had his legal aid removed? Now that’s worth laughing about.

Then there’s the appalling treatment of women and girls. And lying about her personal life. And lying to the Alex Salmond investigation. And lying about what life after Indy would be like. And lying pretty much permanently. And so many Indy supporters turn a blind eye to these lies and expect us to do so too.

It's easy to come on an anonymous forum and make libellous comments isn't it?

Yeah sure. I’m envious of a woman who is absolutely detested by both Nats and unionists who has utterly destroyed her own reputation. 😂😂😂

You’re on every thread about her. Clearly you’re the one obsessed.

Please don't say you're now obsessed with me!

Yes, I noticed this, and I also noticed that both the story and the events covered therein have absolutely nothing to do with Nicola Sturgeon.

Presumably you did not, because you are clearly utterly obsessed with the woman to the point that she's at the forefront of your mind regardless.

You do remember they were married right? That she is on video being vicious to people asking reasonable questions clearly trying g to cover for him? Nothing to do with her my arse.

You appear to have (badly) searched me. I don't have a clue who you are.

it’s a widely held view is that NS stitched him up with the sex pest charges. Did you not see her being interviewed as part of the post-court case investigation, where she claimed time and again not to remember anything about the allegations?

Good for her for living in an ordinary home.
I always assumed it was because she never forgot her roots.

As if she actually lived there.

Murrell lived there. She lived at Bute House in Edinburgh which is WAY more fancy. And, allegedly, in other places too.

With the whole Murrell embezzlement thing her living arrangements were under scrutiny and she can't have it both ways. EITHER she was in a loving marriage with the lovely Peter and living with him as man and wife and was wilfully blind to all the stuff he was buying, OR she has been lying through her teeth for years about their marriage which explains why she was unaware.

No it isn't a wildly held view. Its one held by misogynists.

Ruth Davidson who was previously leader of the opposition in Scotland, lives in a totally normal house near me.

i have two politicians living in my town but I’m not outing myself. I was just walking home from the pharmacy one day and a woman was taking in a delivery and I thought ‘ooh it’s….’

In what way is it misogynistic to think that NS stitched Alex Salmond up? If the FM was male it would still very much looked like they’d stitched Alex Salmond up. What is it with separatists and the word ‘misogyny’? You’re like my 3 year old daughter what’s just learned a new word and throws it around all the time without really understanding what it means!

I find your intrusive curiosity about Nicola's marriage and living arrangements absolutely weird.
I know where Bute House is thank you very much and that it is the Official Residence of the First Minister.
It comes over that the pp on this thread that are consumed by such hatred must live very bitter and unhappy lives.
