At what point will it be recognised that UK Goverment, their party donors and loyal supporters have crossed the line between realism and delusion?

Walker began: "Nicola Sturgeon under a bit of pressure, that inquiry she will be giving her evidence today from 9am. Do you agree that she's fighting for her political life today?"

All in a day's work in #scottishparliament !!

"No I don't," Blackford replied. "I think what you're saying is the worse kind of politicking from the Conservatives."

You might even think they don't want #ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 !

"Her handling of the pandemic has been widely praised and she has fronted-up the challenging public health campaign with competence, commitment and empathy."

"Nicola Sturgeon is rated three times more strongly than Tory leader Douglas Ross and new Labour leader Anas Sarwar. Her intelligence is rated twice as highly as her rivals, as is her understanding or ordinary people, her genuineness, honesty, trustworthiness and charisma."

"Having failed to lay a glove on her, opposition politicians and the anti-SNP commentariat have launched a full-on Trumpist assault, deploying character assassination, wild exaggerations, accusations and conspiracy theories."

Actions that might warrant investigation!

"GARY Kelly is a well-known stalwart of the Scottish independence movement, but he is a fair-minded sort of guy who wants England to have indy too."

"He applied to the people who run the Petitions website for the Westminster Parliament – you know, the one that promises “consideration for debate” in Parliament if you get 100,000 signatures – mischievously asking them to host a petition calling for “Independence for England”

"...so that our neighbours did not need to keep subsidising Scotland and the rest of the UK."

"Not for the first time, the Tories have been accused of proposing new laws which strongly resemble fascism."

"Meanwhile, all of this is coming from a government which appears to be simultaneously seeking to dictate how Britain’s history is told."

"Jason Stanley, a philosophy professor at Yale University, succinctly summed up his thoughts on the current state of affairs by highlighting two short passages of his book, How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them."
