pandarilla Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Pie in the sky stuff there, what has Oor Nicola done that stands her head and shoulders ? All she is doing is being a puppet for her Tory bosses, where has the money come from for keeping companies and people afloat, not the Scottish government. It’s something that the Nats have never been able to answer. Exactly what are Nicola and wee Jeane doing just now that is so much better than Westminster?She has appeared every day since the crisis broke, and explained with openness and honesty. Not attempting to bluff and bluster, and instead she's clear on the details.Like i said, there's a works of difference in their handling of the press conferences.I'd love for the Scottish govt to have the economic control to make meaningful policy differences - but you're going to attack them either way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A combination of his illness plus the fact that people tend to rally around leadership in times of crisis (a tide that will raise the good ship Sturgeon equally) that does not necessarily last much beyond that. Even Gordon Brown's polling numbers went up in the aftermath of the banking crisis... You're right. People are obvs more reluctant to believe their leaders are useless chancers when those people are presiding over decisions that might actually kill loved ones. It'll be interesting to see how Boris's approval ratings fair say six months after we're over the worst of this. Ofc it doesn't help that our press are court jesters more interested in holding the public to account than the govt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lambies Doos Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Can the next “Better Together” campaign please have “THANK THE MIGHTY BORIS FOR SAVING YOU FROM YOURSELVES” emblazoned on all its anti-Scottish propaganda? Should sway a few softer opponents of Scottish independence.Nah cravens will still crave 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Kelly Isley III Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Nah cravens will still cravePerhaps, but these cravens should perhaps consider how Denmark for example has dealt with this pandemic, and how it goes about its business in general. All the pre-existing reasons for an independent Scottish state are as valid as they were three months ago, and given the response of the UK Government during this period they have been strengthened. Lockdown and self-isolation need not dull our critical faculties, and anyone thinking that post-pandemic Britain will become some soft-focus haven of democracy, social cohesion and equality really needs their head examined - and that's before the full lunacy of Brexit. We still have a chance for a better Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of a business continuity plan for pandemic disease? Or do you mean the fact they STILL havent got proper PPE for emergency service staff and GP’s? Its all very well sounding good at a podium in a press conference, but in reality Scotland’s response to this pandemic (and btw the UK one is horrific also) has been nothing short of shameful. This hasn't aged well. It seems the UK government have been sabotaging us since the beginning. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact Inverclyde has had more covid deaths than Australia shows the Scottish strategy and approach was fucking shite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes certain things are devolved and reserved, im fucking patently aware of that, however ensuring adequate stocks of PPE would fall to the Scottish Government/NHS emergency planning, of which Scotland has a body called ‘Ready Scotland’. Their own website, their SOP’s recognise the necessity of Scotland public bodies to prepare for emergencies. In particular some of their literature talks about learning from influenza pandemic of 2009 and readiness from then https://www.readyscotland.org/media/1112/mpc_guidance_-_scotland_-_final_may_2014.pdfMate ffs im not saying the Scottish government are at Tory levels of incompetence but f**k me they were caught with their trousers down, have a bit of humility and just accept that they fucked it, running about with your fingers in ears singing ‘lalalala’ doesn’t help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
