Bye bye Sturgeon

[dinny_g]

Possibly the best of a bad lot but if I'm being honest,

Seems to be the way everywhere these days

[Simon]

Lol

[Beany]

Yes, I'm sure it's absolutely normal that the £100k motorhome parked outside her mother in laws house is owned by the SNP and they definitely weren't spending political donations on themselves.

Husband charged with embezzlement. Wonder how long until she receives the same or charges for assisting an offender

How would she not know what was going on, as both his wife and party leader?

[Swervin_Mervin]

What I can't see anywhere on the main news outlets are the stories about how the SNP changed the official record of what Humza Yousaf said in a speech months ago, as he was reported for a hate crime for being racist (despite the fact that there's a video of him saying it). Which obviously leads to questions of what else has been "edited" in the official records?

AIUI the Rainbow Greens are also threatening to bring the coalition down because of a pledge to follow the advice of the Cass report.

Sounds like it's all turning to rat shit up there!

Secret gambling problem ? Addicts can be very good at hiding things.

Yeah it’s not going great for them.

I think the Cass Report stuff is the final nail for a functional partnership between SNP and the Greens.

I’m not convinced that the Humza racism stuff has legs tbh, it’s mostly a political attack imo.

Obviously the embezzlement is the big news and I can’t see how the party can distance themselves from Murrell as he was so deeply involved with them.

[Ascender]

One thing's for sure, we need change and hopefully this will be another nail in the coffin of the cult-like following the SNP seems to have.

As for the alternatives....

[IanF]

Maybe not the correct name but.. vote of no confidence in SNP leader

What’s the current feeling in Scotland with regard to the SNP? Is this something they can brush off or will this trigger an election?

[ZedLeg]

Nope, he’s fucked.

They’ll never get a majority vote again now that they’ve pissed off the greens.

[mik]

Yousaf has resigned

[nuttinnew]

[ZedLeg]

He’s going to be around til the election, the resignation was to stop the votes of no confidence.

Genuinely don’t know how that’ll go, the SNP may keep enough of the hardcore nats to technically win but I don’t think they’ll be able to form a government without big concessions to another party.
