Until last Thursday, if you’d asked a Scottish voter which senior politician between Nicola Sturgeon and Boris Johnson had been the more successful leader throughout the difficult days of Coronavirus lockdown, odds are they’d have said the First Minister, every time
The findings of the UK Covid Inquiry should put an end to that particular example of Scottish exceptionalism
Why it is time to stop pretending Nicola Sturgeon is some kind of political giant
@ecksmc I liked John Nicolson, and wish he got re-elected. Big Johnson, fughettabout it. I don't know as much about Scottish politics as I would like. Am glad the tories lost their majority though!
@ecksmc Nicola Sturgeon was not that well liked from what I remember.
@JeniRizio Sturgeon was adored and admired by many people not just SNP or in scotland either worldwide
She resigned because her husband was finally caught for embezzlement

Done many a thread on it

But Sturgeon was seen as a good leader by loads - after she resigned and all the dirt started to show folk had a change of heart - but shes still a SNP member and loads like her still
@ecksmc Thank you for clarifying. My bad.
