STURGEON IS QUITTING

[Clymene]

Just seen on BBC headlines

Delighted that traitor of women and girls is gone.

Kate Forbes would be our best hope for sense on the GRR issue. Not sure she's got enough backing within the party.

Hoping we can move on from the cult of personality that's been gripping Scottish politics for the last decade or so.

FUUUUUUCK YAAAASSSSSSSS

Perhaps her successor will heed the warnings from
The Terven!!!

I did like nicola sturgeon at one point not going to lie but some of her policies had me thinking wtaf are you doing? The whole trans prisoners fiasco has ultimately been her undoing

Someone on the SNP making it clear that the GRR Bill was voted through by Greens, Labour and some Cons. He claims she isn't leaving because of the 'trans issue'

I'm meant to be at work, currently stuck to the sofa waiting for the PC.

I wonder why, from her point of view. I mean she is very popular in Scotland during covid even amongst Unionist voters I knew. I think she generally still is.

I wonder if she is genuinely fed up of all the pressure and internal debates.

Maybe she realizes she has not succeeded on all the big issues in Scotland, health, education and so on.

Maybe not being able to answer basic questions about the rapist in women’s prisons has causes her to rethink how she ended up like that- but I doubt it!

🤣🤣❤️

Well there you go. Gender politics takes another out

What was written on the BBC reporters note book that he held up to the camera?

And even fewer female politicians who would stick up for them. She’s a disgrace.

Brilliant news.

frank, get the door

Can't believe I'm sharing wings 🙄 but the rumour seems to be that the resignation is mainly due to the police investigation ramping up.

I don't think it will be a smooth transition, I think civil war is going to break out in the SNP.

She’s late for her speech

GRR is not the only reason but it's going to get more sunlight as the media analyse her ousting.
Good riddance.

Yes. It's going to be messy.

Listened to that with my jaw on the floor.

Does he think we're stupid?

You’ve obviously never heard of Mark Drakeford!

Woohoo! Freedom!

Here we go

I had to look it up too, every days a school day.
Still good word, very apt

I suspect we are about to get a creative speech.

We don’t button up the back hen. It would be rare if honesty played a part.

I love how much women saying no are impacting politics even amongst all the no one cares jibes.

Enough to end long political careers no less.

Hadn't seen until DH messaged me. Neither of us are fans.
