There was someone at the Holyrood Protest against men in female prisons that was handing out flyers about the petition. I took a handful to distribute in my area. Is there anyway to get more of them? I have a couple of friends who might be able to help get them out in their areas too.

I was being mildly facetious.

A group of gender woo supporting men were discussing Sturgeon, this was one of the comments....

A good indication of how out of touch they are eh?

BBC saying swinney isn't standing.

A lot of people seem to be ruling themselves out. Is following Sturgeon and knowing they are beholden to the Greens going to be seen as a poison chalice by many?

LexMitior · 17/02/2023 11:27

Yes it's a poisoned chalice. Who wants that job.

Sturgeon was a good talker but a practical failure. She has left them in it, with policy messes and no independence.

She just used to talk around it and high standards she had for herself, everyone else and Scotland. And that those standards were better than Westminster. A finger wagger.

What did she actually deliver in policy terms? I don't mean easy stuff like baby boxes, free prescriptions or the like. That is just spending money and easily arranged.

Learning nothing from the independence referendum then. IIRC the big swing against was thought partly due to people being too afraid to say how they'd vote

I saw that picture and he looks better as a woman! Would the TRAs accept him?

Identifies as a SNP MSP...

duc748 · 17/02/2023 12:30

Love it! 😂

OMG12 · 17/02/2023 12:32

I’ve been assuming I can self identify as Scottish and an SNP member to cast my vote? Hell maybe I will just self identify as an MSP and go straight for the top job, no one will mind will they? I once had a tartan kilt as a teenager and I’ve been to both Edinburgh and Glasgow

Humza Yousaf's going for it. A man who's achieved fuck all so far, despite a series of important roles.

Oh gosh, remember Humza Yousaf speeding on his wee scooter in the corridors of holyrood and he fell. Most people would laugh at themselves, but he was furious. Great traits for a leader!

Also the very recent nursery debacle should count against him.

I was wondering about this. Is it concluded?

With his aid running along behind him struggling to keep up 🤨

He dropped the case recently.

The cynic in me is wondering if this is why

ResisterRex · 17/02/2023 17:49

Ah right. IIRC it sounded odd as they wanted a PT place and someone else got an offer but I thought it was FT that got offered. That's how it goes in nurseries as they need the income. Same as if you work PT Tues-Weds-Thurs, you're going to struggle as those are the popular days.
