Interesting news.

Just been reading this on the beeb.

Oh dear it would seem that all the lies and manipulation are finally catching up with the snp

🍿

Good. End of an era. An increasingly unsavoury one. What will be left of the SNP?

Ha! Good.

Strangely enough neither the Guardian or the BBC see fit to mention any possible reasons for the catastrophic drop in the SNP membership figures. Perhaps the Observer might manage to say the unsayable tomorrow...

Good. Been waiting for this for years. Can't wait to hear the amount of corruption that's about to come flooding out. So inept, so incompetent, so secretive and shady, I'm almost starting to believe the conspiracy that the high heid yins were unionist plants.

30k members left. Why did we not deserve a broom cupboard speech? 😢

Here you go @CompleteGinasaur this one has it

And managed to do it without any decency or dignity. Only did it before he was pushed. Dirty, cowardly little man.

Thank you, @Hoardasurass. Me and my schadenfreude and my popcorn are having a perfectly lovely time..

Yay 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Your welcome @CompleteGinasaur I'm enjoying this too

How are you all enjoying this weekends entertainment so far?

My word. The amount of detail given in that Spectator article that is curiously absent from the Guardian and the BBC.. There really is quite a lot rotten in the State of Sturgeon, isn't there? (Never thought I'd have to be so grateful to the Speccie, but here we are.)

Just had a read of the Speccie article. Ooooh it's good.

Me too:

Hours before, Nicola Sturgeon’s strategic policy and political advisor Liz Lloyd – a hugely influential figure – announced she too would be resigning from government after Regan’s campaign team raised concerns about her role in Yousaf’s campaign. Reports emerged earlier in the week that she had been providing advice to Yousaf, which Regan’s campaign said could be breaking party rules.

A spokesperson for the Scottish government said that this was not the case, that ‘special advisers are permitted to assist with party leadership elections, in their own time, while still employed by the government’. Lloyd quit her job anyway.

Having previously bashed the Conservatives for their own sleaziness and lack of honesty, it is not a good look for the SNP to be facing multiple resignations linked to integrity issues.

Absolutely!

This is also good:

'...can you just clarify, apart from election-rigging and legal-advice-ignoring and governance-stacking and conference-hobbling and constitution-distorting and democracy-obstructing and money-misappropriating and company-law-ignoring and nepotism and electoral-rule-breaking and dark-donor-concealing and being-investigated-for-fraud and lie-telling and corporate-sell-outing and member-conning and literally-unbelievable-profligacy and the thing we’re not allowed to talk about and candidate-eliminating and dodgy-election-design, why would anyone mistrust SNP HQ?'

This article lays a fair amount of blame for the situation with Sturgeon's cleaving to gender issues.

I wonder if this will cause a further plummet in membership figures. <<rubs hands in glee>>

You'd have to be stupid to continue giving this parcel of rogues your cash.

So, Mr. Sturgeon follows his wife into the wilderness, how tragic.

Just read this, it is good....and now I want a Pepsi.
