At least, the Rainbow Greens are!

There's a petition for the Greens to leave Government, if anyone finds it please post the link or how to find it!

The Greens will be apopletic if Forbes gets in. Tantrums everywhere. Big waily waily.

Bring it.

New cabinet:

Even got rainbow stuff covered

They're all just embarrassing with their in fighting, breaking up and then grovelling to each other again. What a shitshow, we must be such a laughing stock.

The shame is on them @Cosmosforbreakfast . Politicians gonna politish.
And every country has it's own home grown embarrassments.

Sorry. Dbl post not intended.

Trying to decide whether it would be a good thing for MSPs from other parties to vote for Kate as FM if it came to it. On the upside it would really upset the greens to lose that influence. It would also put a more competent person in charge which would be good for Scotland short term but that might count against other parties at the General election and subsequent Scottish election and risk being able to get rid of the SNP….

Kate's away.

Here's Ash Regan and Lorna Slater on Debate night.

Swinney is going to step up and take the blame when the SNP lose the next election, and the real fight for the leadership will be after that.

It's like Stoneybridge Town Council but with a bigger camper van.

How did the education system do under Swinney? Shite? And the first minister he was deputy to? Arrested?

Excellent - let's put him in charge of the country. Honestly Scotland is a clown show these days.

😆

I wonder if it's going to be similar to Ireland, in that Harris and Swinney get to be post holders until the elections, then things will change.

This camper van.

Just read this on twitter.

'SNP priority is keeping the GRR bill alive ready for resurrection when Labour win the GE. Everything else is of secondary interest at best.'

Source link please? Anyone can chat shit on TwiX. If this is a reliable source, it's something to worry about.

Depressed enough about bloody Swinney please say that was just someone chatting shit Arabella 🙏🏻

I didnt note it. It's just a random Twitter user, the point is that the Scottishgov have refused to strike the GRR Bill off, so it remains 'pending', and Labour have committed to reforming the GRA.

I find this a very worrying possibility. We need to hear from Labour what they plan to do once they are in power in Scotland. Will they press the button and sign the reforms into law?

Letters to MSPs is a good idea.

Which I assume is why Ash Regan had.asked for the GRR Bill to be taken down.

Though how can Labour allow a bill to pass which impacts on reserved legislation, even if they agreed with it? The UNCRC bill had to be amended, even though all parties supported it in Scotland, for this reason. It wasn’t an objection to UNCRC*, it was simply the fact it was beyond the competence of the Scottish Parliament.

*I fear UNCRC may be a Trojan horse

Yes, I expect the risk is a new Sec of State for Scotland who is in favour of GRR and willing to strike down the Section 35.
