Honesty? Well, possibly. But I think the sordid tale of the disappearance of £600,000 of members’ donations to a ‘ring fenced’ Referendum fund which will continue to unravel over the coming weeks and months will be fascinating. 
Popcorn supplies on order. 😉

Not saying it's right but 600k is a piss in a puddle compared to the billions our government has shovelled in the direction of their mates.

Michelle Mone gets more than that in interest on the money she corrupted from the state.

Cheers 👍

reading on from that it makes sense why she dodged the question. Can’t see it being a huge thing to be honest. Pales into insignificance to what the Tories have done with money in recent years. She seems pretty confident it won’t come back to bite.

 Might be wrong though. 
 

it’s certainly not why she’s called it a day anyhow 

It gives her husband to step down from his role in the party. 

A new post with the UN would be an elegant step for her, and he might avoid the consequences of his maladministration.

Loads of jocks down here. Scooter club, football mates etc. Not a single one has any time her - not one. They have been calling her 'wee Jimmy Krankie', 'the cow' etc, for years so I am not sure she is as popular as some would suggest. She certainly was loved by all the women of Scotland after forcing through her recent legislation. Well, all those women with penises anyway.

I wonder if it's because she is an obnoxious fucker intent on breaking the union? Just a thought.

So she might get a plum job and her fella gets off?  Sounds great for those that can and sounds dodgy as fuck, do you have any links to the rumours?

What about down here where pub landlords and 2 week old companies get £200m contracts to supply shite PPE they never had a hope of supplying?  Yes I know, whataboutary but it stinks.

Don't get me wrong, this should be thoroughly investigated and if guilty then face the consequences.

Obnoxious twat (her, not you). Gone. Does anything else really matter?

You might want to research the state of education, the NHS etc. in Scotland under her tenure.

It’s almost like to have to live somewhere to really have a grasp of what’s happening.

I’ve worked in Scottish schools nearly 5 years and have used the NHS numerous times, as have family members. All positive experiences. The Scottish curriculum is IMO much better and more child focused than England’s, which is league table focused; teaches very few life skills and burns teachers into the ground.

The SNP have their fare share of politicians working hard for their constituents. Sturgeon herself was very popular with her Glasgow constituents and it’s simply wrong to suggest that they keep getting elected solely because of independence. Plenty of no voters chose them based on policies. 

But YES they have gotten away with a lot using the independence argument, and education and the NHS have suffered. For that reason they wouldn’t get my vote, but I can see some of their strengths. They would likely split into two factions if independence was achieved. 

You calling her an obnoxious twat only goes to show just how triggered blokes of your age seem to get by her. It’s strange, and even stranger how you ignore the utter failings and obnoxiousness of Tory politicians who have done far worse for hard working people than the SNP have. Whataboutery I know - but the Scottish electorate knows this.

I wonder how many times whataboutery can be said today😂

You seem to be getting rather aggressive again Earth Father? The cannabinoids must be lower in strength in your most recent score?

The irony of a vigorous campaigner for Scottish independence wanting to (re) join one of the most restrictive, overbearing bureaucracies on the planet. Laughable.

Bent fucker too it seems. Good riddance.

Your fawning admiration suggests a vested interest? You didn't used to be London Wandereress did you?

Maybe, but he would never come out and say that, he just always pretended he knew about stuff that was about to become public knowledge, that would see her instant demise, but would never say what it was. (he was similar with Sadiq Khan as well for some reason)

Anyway, I've never had any time for her either to be honest, I get annoyed just looking at her 🙂 - even if they did get their second referendum, I suspect it would go the way of the last one, and hopefully keep the Union in tact.

[Spider]

The the stuff about Sadiq Khan ever come out or is he still mayor?
