jaydee i have no idea why the snp walked out. Im tempted to say sturgeon has been "compromised" , but the more pragmatic side of me thinks this is nothing more than about her ego and that she cannot tolerate salmond or any other party challenging her.

The GRR bill is a disaster for the snp. A minority side issue that doesnt need dealt with , much like many other issues while the constitutional issue remains unsolved. I personally think from what i have read the cracks are beginning to widen in sturgeons disasterous leadership of the snp and her time is close to coming to an end. We shall see though.

Ross is a clown of the highest order. The tories have had some good politicians historically in scotland , and of course some utter clowns , but ross really is the scrapings of the bottom of the barrell.

I have always respected MacAskill if not admired him for his quiet demeanor and willingness to get on with the job and his loyalty to both independence and alec salmond. Politics to a lesser or greater degree north and south of the border is a mess at the minute.

You still have me beat. I have no idea in what you mean that the FM has been compromised. In terms of ego. She clearly and rightly so rejected using her office to protect Mr Salmond against several allegation of sexual conduct by females and rightly so. Mr Salmond resigned. He was found not guilty and why he did not re-join beats the hell out of me. It seems it is his ego. In terms of the walk out. From what I can gather it seems to me Mr Salmond wants the SNP to go a disruption spree in Westminster. And from my reading of it he is saying go for UDI. That will go down like a lead balloon. Both Alba MPs were elected as SNP. Mr Blackford was distances himself from that and putting clear water between the SNP and Alba. As the Britnats go of on a tangent. I have no issue in being corrected. But can you explain what you think Mr Salmond is on about in the link below.

In terms of the GRR bill it is hardly a disaster. It is opinion. Even some Tory's voted for it. They were given a free vote. Any thing of a sexual nature is going to do that. And minority issue like homosexuality need dealing with. I am not sure why you call it a disaster. Nor am I sure how you conclude the FM has a disastrous leadership. Despite other parties such as that led by Sheridan stood down and asked supporters to vote for Alba at the last election. . Alba received 1.7% share of the vote and not one Alba MSP was elected. You will forgive me if I suggest your idea of a disaster and mines differ. Unless indy parties kiss and make up. The next indy vote will be lost. As I have said several times. Going back to the days of Margo MacDonald and Jim Sillars. If they had been listened to. There would not even be a devolved Parliament. There is no question of Margo's determination for indy. But Sillars was just left wing loony Labour and why he defected to the SNP defies the hell out of me.

In terms of D.Ross and the branch office. For our friends south of the border. This is what a absolute clown looks like. This is him in just several weeks. Even more stupid than Johnston. First he asked Johnston to resign. Then U turned. The he called on Johnston to resign again. Then U turned again. He then applauded Truss and demanded the FM follow the Mini Budget. He then applauded Truss for scrapping the mini budget. He then voted for Fracking in England. Then applauded the fact that the ban on England for fracking was reinstated. He backed the removal of Braverman. He now backs Sunak and backs Braverman being returned. All in this month. You can see why the Scottish Conservatives are furious at the fact there is no mechanism for getting rid of this absolute wasted space. He has caused more damage to the reputation of Scotland than any politician. With his continual drivel the Scots are to wee to stupid and to poor to go it alone. And still doing it in the Scottish Parliament And he wants to be the FM of Scotland. That in a nut shell is why the Conservatives in Scotland will be decimated. Again.
