Sturgeon resigns

Yes, that's why I said "Scotland and Catalonia aren't directly comparable in many ways".

Bit less sunny for starters.

Sunshine's overrated though...

Fair point well made. The roads are shite too.

Especially if you're Ginger.

Factor 30 ftw. 👍

Tories have won the Dunblane/Bridge local council election. Could have been a result related to local issues, but the collapse of the Green vote is interesting.

I think the results also highlight a problem for all parties in the UK, though less of a problem in Scotland. Tory voters nearly always turn out on election day.

30 shmirty. Nothing under Factor 50 for this ginger.

Factor 30?

Here in Asia, in summer, I'm on Factor 100+

Looks like the SNP is in meltdown tonight

Indeed. It's CEO* has resigned with immediate effect in circumstances that look as though he jumped before being pushed.

As is apparent the ex CEO is married to the FM.

Quiet on here isn’t it?

I wonder why

SNP leadership: SNP in 'tremendous mess', interim chief says https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-65001543

Tory bias of course.

Well, obviously there's nothing to talk about. The SNP are finally outed as a bunch of infighting, backstabbing, lying crooks and Scotland, the scales unceremoniously ripped from our eyes, now recognise the error of our ways and what deluded simpletons we've been. So now we will forget all that silly independence and progressive socialism nonsense and immediately rush as one to embrace Sir Starmer, hard Brexit, Tory-lite bigotry and right-wing policies. It'll take some amount of spinal flexibility to lick the Tory boot on our throats, but we'll try, yes sir - we'll try.

Nothing else to say. Rule Britannia and God save King Sausage Fingers.

Glad to see it doesn't keep you awake at night.
