BigDoddyKane Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) Id be surprised if NS serves another 5 years, if she does then she needs to actually do something instead of just deliver soundbites that sound good at the time but later end up never happening. That's worked until now but its starting to wear thin. Focus on the day to day and improve peoples lives not just say it but actually do it. Though looking at the options for who could take over probably mean she can carry on doing feck all quite comfortably Edited November 25, 2021 by BigDoddyKane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She just faffs about. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There hasn't been much traction for SNP/Sturgeon Bad lately, so somebody had to invent a reason to print quotes from the usual suspects?

If she's got any sense, she'll make this her last term regardless. Nobody retains popularity indefinitely, and she'll be dragged out onto the street eventually, even if she does manage to pull off independence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was sure she would. If she’s not going to surely she has to step down by 23 or 24 at the latest. Give the new boss a fair crack of the whip before the poll. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Party leaders nearly always do that to avoid being regarded as lame ducks for the remainder of their term, and open warfare between the wannabe successors. No idea if she wants to stay on or not though, you'd expect her to be knackered by now. Edited November 25, 2021 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
