Theresa May once warned that Nicola Sturgeon couldn't be relied upon to act in "good faith" and so it appears. What's more her claim to be "a feminist to my fingertips" is blown over her Vogue revelation about Truss, an exchange I'm sure that took place between what she thought was two women rather than two political rivals. Turns out Sturgeon is an attention seeker after all.
Stephen may not be getting this Sturgeon thing quite right. Celebrity? To whom? Her own SNP fan base? Perhaps, but Scottish celebrities are cursed by demographics. Unless your name is Connery or Connelly you appeal to comparitavely few and the majority in Scotland do not like her. Who really knows the context of Liz Truss's question on the Vogue photo thing? Did Liz ask her "wow, how did you blag the Vogue gig, you looked terrific; or more believeably, how did you bribe Vogue magazine when you look like a sack of sh1te permanently licking pi55 off a a nettle?" Liz Truss has shown class in not furthering the tiff. If Sturgeon is a celebrity she'd better have a new album, movie, concert tour, Netflix series or whatever in the pipeline bacause her lunatic pretendy referendum is destined to hold her up to the ridicule that is her just deserts for such an absurd tactic.
She is a second rate politician when it comes to the grown up issues Yet again she shows herself up as she lays herself bare on the altar of egotism PS On another note but doesn't the police investigation into the misuse of 600k of funds beginning to look farcical How long does it take ? If everything was all above board surely it could have been wrapped up in a couple of weeks
We would be foolish to underestimate her streetwise cunning .. yet that is what she has .. not strategy , not political acumen . Sadly her inflated ego is only attractive to those who lack any ability to judge character and integrity . Some are vulnerable , some aggrieved while others seek fulfilment for their own ambitions in following her
Imagine Johnson supporters complaining that Scotland has a leader people actually like. Personalised attacks, signalled by Truss, and the right wing extremists of the ERG delivered by the billionaire owned journos of the Daily Mail.
Well said I never consciously looked at the FM like this and she if she is still FM could have mentioned it at a better time for her hopefully liz would have reminded her about her terrible I can’t recall these things happen memory under interrogation for miss management in public office
Ms Sturgeon has to realise that ‘fame for fame’s sake’ is not enough to achieve long term renown . She has actually got to do something for the benefit of the Scottish people which will be remembered and for which we will be grateful . To date she has failed to do so and perhaps never will . Her only chance of everlasting celebrity is to bring Independence ‘over the line’ . However , if she’s not very careful her fame may well turn into infamy .
"Say what you like about Davidson" she fled to the House of Lords rather than fight the next election for her seat that she looked highly likely to lose.

A brilliant analysis, but so depressing that so many Scots are taken in by her.

Spot on Stephen
“ a master strategist, and a canny tactician”
Is there any evidence for this?

I don’t think they’re real Scots . They’re mainly of Irish descent living in the greater Glasgow area .
With Sturgeon being known as a habitual liar are we now to believe that this conversation topic actually took place?
She doesn’t speak for the 55% who voted on 2014 she is destroying our country

She lied about the convo with Dugdale - anyone with even a passing knowledge of body language can see she lied.
