It’s a witch hunt, nothing more.

But yet he’s a ‘fugitive’🙄

So how come Scotland is consistently polling an Indy majority and we vote in the SNP every time an election rolls around, yet the BBC audience is still nowhere near representative?

I gave up my job in a UK Bank when I was 40 and went to uni to study nursing.
Without free tuition and a bursary I could not have afforded to.
Now I am an NHS Charge Nurse in a Chemotherapy Unit. I love it and will stay till I retire.

deal with a pack (perfect word) of hostile hacks yesterday & I’m in awe. No other uk politician dares risk such intense scrutiny.
Replies to Gordon/Blackley/Cook withering. Their intent is so obviously not balance.
People know what they saw during the pandemic.
No matter how they twist the truth to tarnish her efforts,
@NicolaSturgeon
was a stable constant during that dark time for most in Scotland & many ppl elsewhere.
I hope she always remembers that.
#UKCovidInquiry
I have no issue with reasonable questions being asked by the ‘Scottish’ media about

My issue is the hyperbole and frenzied 24/7 coverage while immeasurably worse UKGov HS2, PPE rip offs etc are ignored.

Remember when
@NicolaSturgeon

I do.
Yet another example of when she taught them how to lead.

Lively discussion in the staff room today re lockdown easing in Scotland!! Everyone pretty unanimous that

She gave all the loon unionists enough time to make an idiot of themselves and screech their hyperbole before setting out her stall.
She was the best leader in the pandemic by a country mile. They all know it too.
@NicolaSturgeon
Statement re UK Covid Inquiry:
I do not intend to give a running commentary on the ongoing Inquiry. Instead, out of respect to all those impacted by the pandemic, I will answer questions directly and openly when I give evidence at the end of this month

audience member, saying a section 30 order would not be granted despite a mandate and the issue is not relevant with voters
The worst possible thing the unionists could have done for their cause is platform
@NicolaSturgeon
and allow the whole UK to watch her shine under pressure in real time. The unfavourable comparisons with BJ and WM politics are inevitable.
#SalmondInquiry
I think the British establishment and media have overplayed their hand with the hysterical
@NicolaSturgeon
witch hunt.
People can clearly see the agenda here, particularly when they compare her to

I hope it increases her support.
So corrupt unelected

Hey favourite humans, thanks for the 13 years of love and devotion, walks on the beach, cosy nights in, leftovers of your dinners and treats from Pets At Home.
It’s been a blast!
I’ll be offski now then....
RIP ❤️❤️
End of the day, Nicola utterly humiliated the UK Government simply by turning up for her work, sober, not robbing the country blind and giving a shit.
They'll never forgive her for that or stop trying to ruin her as revenge.
No wonder they don’t ask

Head and shoulders above any other leader, no dodging questions, she talks sense and is articulate. The

Any Scottish voter looking objectively at the way the Scottish Govt, Scottish MPs and

do this all the time. The watching public deserve to know the games being played.
This has to be tackled head-on. The man in the audience was a former Tory election candidate. Viewers were duped into believing he was an ordinary member of the public. His political past was concealed. This is happening again and again on BBC Scotland programmes.
A forensic tent and fleet of police for £60k financial investigation??! Wtf??
Those pictures will live on no matter what the outcome. Which of course is exactly the point.

The husband of former first minister Nicola Sturgeon has been arrested in connection with an investigation into Scottish National Party finances. Peter Murrell, 58, was taken into police custody on Wednesday morning.

She happily supported terrible UK policies that didn’t care less what family commitments poor, sick or desperate women had.
Good riddance.
Hello

@AlexSalmond
Imagine thinking, even for a moment, that conniving with this pair against the Scottish SNP Government was a clever idea 🤦♀️
The worst optics imaginable.
This is an outrage. We have free tuition in Scotland but £10b English student debt (much of it tuition fees) is being added to the uk national debt - for which we are responsible for £1b.
Scotland screwed again.

They underestimated her.

Non elected billionaires ‘taking aim’ at the elected government’s policies.
Whether you agree with the policies or not, this is not healthy in a democracy.
Political influence should not be available because you’re rich.

The point being made is that the principles of independence and democracy are the same whether it’s Pakistan or Scotland.

If there even was another vote, Scotland’s opinion would he ignored again exactly as it has been since the first one.
