I'm sad to hear this.

BlackWaveComing · 25/03/2021 20:04

I'm not surprised. Hope she has a chance to recover.

Dear Joanna, you have worked so hard for women and for the next generation, despite appalling abuse. Please take time to rest and recover. Love and best wishes xx

ImpatiensI · 25/03/2021 23:12

Take some time for yourself Joanna, you've done so much and had to be so strong, I truly thank you. I hope you will come back fighting fit. Flowers

Wishing you all the best Joanna - you're the best of them.

Gibbonsgibbonsgibbons · 25/03/2021 23:36

Gutted to read this; I’d like to think the many unsupportive SNP politicians are feeling guilty but I doubt it Sad

Best wishes Joanna Flowers

SunsetBeetch · 26/03/2021 06:31

Oh. Wishing her a speedy recovery Flowers

mummywithtwokidsplusdog · 26/03/2021 07:14

The poor woman. She has been treated so badly by her own party. I hope she feels better soon 💐

ScoldsBridal · 26/03/2021 10:04

Get well soon Joanna - hope you get what you need in terms of rest and recovery. Will miss your cool intelligence in the coming weeks of politicking Flowers

Manderleyagain · 26/03/2021 14:18

Wishing her all the best in her break and recovery.

ChattyLion · 26/03/2021 14:27

She’s so brilliant. I hope she gets well soon.Flowers

PearPickingPorky · 26/03/2021 14:49

I hope she's alright. Can't imagine the toll the last few months must have taken on her.

MarieDelaere · 26/03/2021 14:54

I would like to send her a card or something she's appreciate - to her constituency office presumably?

She has been treated disgracefully by the SNP, which has egged on the twittery bullies and weird types.

PurpleHoodie · 26/03/2021 14:56

Joanna

Let it be marked that this is the type of politician that is required to run a successful, healthy, functioning society.

From England to Scotland Flowers

It's just so embarrassing. Joanna Cherry is a brain on legs, I don't agree with many of her politics, but, the woman is a powerhouse and I'd be happy with her in government because I'd feel like women were safe.

Compare with Kirsty Blackman, another SNP MP who appears to be, well, not as blessed with the same towering intellect as Ms Cherry.

Why have we got one lauded and influencing everything, and, the other needing some time out? It says something worrying about our society.

Best wishes to Joanna Cherry. Women need her.

PurpleHoodie · 26/03/2021 15:02

They are weird Marie. You're quite right.

No matter what the Scottish MNetters views are on Independence V Unification, it has been made obvious to everyone in the UK that the SNP are no longer a party about Independence: they, like the Greens, have given way to their stated remit (Independence/ the Environment) in favour of a new religion. Gender Ideology.

Which is bonkers.

PurpleHoodie · 26/03/2021 15:05

What Viv said.

Rest up Minister Cherry BrewFlowers

Chrysanthemum5 · 26/03/2021 15:11

Joanna thank you for all you've done for women and children and for your bravery in the face of shocking threats. Take care and hopefully you will return soon (Scotland needs politicians like you)

MarieDelaere · 26/03/2021 15:11

I've emailed her office to offer kind words and support.

Bless her.

What a bitter, dangerous cabal the gender ideology crowd in various political parties turned out to be.
