1./ Brilliant piece by @iainmacwhirter on the vaccine nationalism of the EU. But where does that leave the claim from @NicolaSturgeon that the UK govt was just having a "hissy fit" about publishing details about vaccine shipments to the UK? 👇 heraldscotland.com/news/19052285.…
2./ Now that the EU is monitoring shipments of vaccines the idea the SNP govt would still publish details of exports to the UK from vaccine makers as she planned is ridiculous. It could trigger a major row and disruption of vaccinations. heraldscotland.com/news/19046339.… countries/
3./ Like it or not, the UK govt has played a blinder in securing vaccines. It will be fabulous if we can (eventually) share our surplus with the rest of Europe and beyond. But a similar spirit of generosity has been singularly lacking from the SNP. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2021/…
4./ I don't understand why @NicolaSturgeon thinks it undermines her to pay tribute to the vaccine success of the UK. @theSNP should, for example, have associated themselves with the coup of building a new Valneva vaccine plant in Livingston. But...nope!👇twunroll.com/article/135406…
5./ Instead of pointing out Scottish taxpayers contributed to UK funding they preferred to cut their noses off to spite their faces. Despite press coverage since July they failed to capitalise on a major UK/Scottish triumph. Now they look irrelevant. edinburghnews.scotsman.com/health/busines…
6./ Maybe Sturgeon has other priorities? Perhaps her video from what seemed a broom cupboard about supposed "SNP transphobia" shows she's lost the plot? COVID and vaccinations should be her priority, not her increasingly weird woke obsessions.👇dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…
