That's a point - it's "rumoured" that she was hoping for the exact opposite, that Westminster's intervention would further strengthen their plight for independence.

she can keep saying that the gender debate wasn't the reason, but it's obvious that it is

Yes, I agree with you on that.

Yeah, it was a spectacular backfire. According to Polls it was a hugely unpopular bill as well - quite a majority of Scottish people opposed it, 2/3's

This is literally the opposite of what happened - she made policy decisions based on an illusion of popularity based on a vocal minority, and when all was said and done her approval ratings, approval ratings of the SNP, and support for independence all plummetted dramatically. There's no way to argue that this was "a vocal minority bullying her out" - it was polled widely, and the poll results are the reason she's resigning.

In a sense I think it is and isn't. She talks about having gradually lacked energy to do the job properly... She's basically talking about burnout and I think that may be true - but it's what makes the other part also true. I think she's burnt out and dropped the ball... She didn't put the energy and diligent research into the gender reform issue that she should have... She let other people handle the intricacies of it and signed her name to it without taking the time to gain a proper understanding of what she was signing. She allowed herself to be backed into a corner that she never would have previously in her career, it's a misstep that's hugely out of character and her angry response to it was lazy as well.

I think on balance that shows she's telling the truth that she's simply run out of steam to do the job properly - and this has been a stark example of just that.

bye bitch.

Guess it has come to light about the scale of her involvement in the Alex Salmond framing.

Women aren't a vocal minority. You can't actively show 50% of the public that their rights are not important. Good she's gone...

'Wee Free Kirk' Kate Forbes, 32 - a member of evangelical church which
opposes gay marriage and abortion - tipped as favourite to become new SNP
leader

  • Nicola Sturgeon's shock resignation fires starting gun on race to replace her
  • Kate Forbes, Angus Robertson and Humza Yousaf all among leading contenders

I had some relatives that were in the wee free and they were always highly entertaining. She has the potential to be worse than our Liz

:shrug: Average Scottish voter isn't going to go for that either so if there's any weight to it, the party is imploding.

So as a matter of interest where do you think the two time rapist should have seen out their sentence in a male or female jail?
