Currently they are trying to brush this off and hide behind an investigation but the opposition need to keep the heat on and put more of these shysters on the spot. I still think there is more stuff to come out but whoever is leaking is letting them hang themselves and then dropping more revelations. Seeing stuff on Twitter claiming there are numerous vids of the party including drug taking. No names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as she resigned she was making plans for consultancies in London and a seat in the Lord's. The latters expenses paying for trips to London to do her consulting.

Cade Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Rooth the Mooth was only "a success" for the Toaries because she pivoted them into being a single issue party of protest with one policy, and one policy only: "Indypendunce nivvur" With the complete lack of any actual other policies, and joined at the waist to the London party of shitebags, she had no other choice to do that or face being wiped out.

As she never came close to any election victory you must see she failed at her job. She did decent in one election, although beating the hopeless Labour Party into 2nd place isn't hard.

That's a pretty poor barometer of whether she was doing a good job. She was on the winning side of the 2014 referendum though if that helps? It really should be possible to respect someone and disagree with them at the same time but I guess that isn't for everyone. Worth also noting that she bailed shortly after Boris got the job so any comments relating to him should be put in the context that she isn't his biggest fan.

As a politician she: Held zero surgeries Played up the "pregnant woman" angle when an unthreatening punter asked her a valid question Clearly had people building her an "image" including her journalist pals Had a real chip on her shoulder about her own people, to quote: "they don't normally let us in these places incase we steal the cutlery" Couldn't bring herself to decry the misogynist tory "rape clause" Not the worst tory MSP in terms of leading her party, certainly less odious than creepy Douglas Ross but let's not get carried away about "respect" when anyone who was paying attention could see beneath the PR mask to the mean-spirited, nasty piece of work underneath. It was all about Ruth, not the party and most certainly not Scotland. What's interesting is she was clearly being fast-tracked to a minsterial position in the main party and talked up as a future leader, yet all of a sudden the PR campaign goes quiet and she's shuffled into the HOLs instead? Makes me wonder what she ****ed up to be quiet honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Kintner Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Actually thought Ruth Davidson was a pretty good politician and at a time when there were three very good leaders all keeping each other on their toes (Sturgeon, Davidson, Dugdale). Davidson oversaw some improvement in Tory election results. To try and suggest she in any way outdebated or got the best of Nicola Sturgeon is completely hilarious though 😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a room full of them taking the piss. If Allergy goes, surely they all should. That said, we know that her husband (Political Editor at the Spectator) is best mates with Rishi Sunak and, between them, they'll see that Stratton falls somewhere soft and feathery. This press conference isn't going quite the way that BJ might have hoped; thankfully a few journos still keeping their feet on his neck and he's continuing to dig a hole for himself (while having his fingers crossed that the Cabinet Secretary will do the decent thing).
