I couldn't care less if she was the Queen of Sheeba.

 

The plant, or in the case, the weed has been pulled from the ground.

 

Dry yer eyes, and Ruth took a battering tonight too. Loved the booooing. :)

The people looking up the history and family of this nurse after she had the cheek to humiliate the cult leader on live TV are a disgrace

 

Showing pictures of her having some rose wine is akin to showing pics of a homeless person smoking and drinking and questioning their priorities or saying people shouldn't have sky TV who are unemployed etc.

 

The maths teacher and this nurse in the debate and the witch hunt which followed will have reminded people of the shambles Scotland is becoming. About time someone pointed out exams are being dumbed down when sturgeon claims we are having record exam passes in response to bring asked about dropping education standards

That's some spin. 1/10

 

She chose to post everything online and make it public.

 

No ones threatened her as you are making out.

 

Why was she invited back by the BBC after QT and given plenty more air time to make a point when she clearly isn't using a Foodbank. She's been caught lying.

 

Why did the BBC frame the whole debate around DEVOLVED issues from start to finish? Not one question about pensions, defence etc?

 

The only person that was booooed the entire night by practically the whole audience was Ruth.

She was meant to get a question at QT but didn't get a chance so got invited back to this show. Stasi-like behaviour which only people like you will turn a blind eye to

 

I fully expect Ruth to be booed as nats tend to be the vocal minority who can't keep a lid on it.

By accounts the Sun ( don't touch the rag ) has called her out for telling porkies .

It's a shame that her life is being poured over and if she is receiving threats that's wrong ( though I expect that's being over egged ) .

But simples in the modern era of social media ,if you are going to stand up and say a bare faced lie people will question you .

It's a shame as her lie has taken away from an important issue of the modern day soup kitchens and how the Tory Spivs have turned them into part of the benefits system .

 

Actually thought Sturgeon answered her question well though you have to ask why so much time was given to devolved matters on the eve of a Westminster election .

 

The show itself saw Ruth the tank commander flounder over Brexit ,independence and benefits , Sturgeon was OK struggled a bit on devolved maters , dugdale in the few moments she got surprised and did OK .

The Ukippers guy as ridiculous as ever ,Willie Rennie pointless and Harvie was articulate as ever but irrelevant for this election .

The BBC clearly steered the debate as much as they could onto devolved issues under the premise it's what the public wants but if it was a specially invited audience made up of partisans from the various party's that doesn't wash .

You must admit that she loses credibility the more her social media photos are shared, no? Regarding inviting her a second time, there will be 000s of people applying to ask a question on QT and last nights programme. Why is she so special that she just HAD to be heard? She wouldnt even have been the only nurse to apply for these programmes.

 

I like things to be transparent and open. This appears to be neither.

"Stasi" :lol:

 

Her Twitter, Instagram are open to the public. She puts it online, no one else.

 

BBC getting called out now for the mess that the program was. Questions were designed to take the heat off Ruth but still she got found out big time.

Typical of some posters on here who would rather mock one woman to avoid talking about the real issue of poorly paid nursing staff in Scotland.

 

Of course it's Westminster's fault though so why the silence ?

This nurse was hailed as the star of the show last night so I think it is reasonable that she (& the background to her being on the programme, particularly given BBCs already proven bias) is discussed. She said that she was very poor and couldnt afford to eat so she brought any questions about this upon herself.

 

Nicola Sturgeon replied to her points extremely well last night.

Sturgeon was an embarassment last night.

 

Constantly talking over other speakers to stop them landing blows on her.  She did the same with the former leader of Scottish Labour at a previous election, and looks a very bitter woman.

 

The SNP have been found utterly wanting and can't defend their record on the NHS or education despite attempts to deflect everything to the Westminster government.

Dear oh dear. Someone whether it be the Conservative and Unionist party or the BBC tried to engineer a debate on the forthcoming election to the benefit of the union overall. They got found out as the person they chose turns out not to be the sharpest tool in the box and likes to boast tell her life story on social media.

They have been found out and now others are up in arms that she has.

 

Campaigning what a mess it is from ALL PARTIES and the mainstream Scottish media. To those who wish independence for Scotland. Stop moaning about the BBC we know their position from day one. The clue is in the first B of their acronym.

In that case they should be open and honest about it and announce their position before every single programme/report/debate.

 

People are influenced by the media and to have a major publicly financed television station pretending to be impartial is totally unfair.

It was like a fight in a Steamie but Sturgeon has gone on to suggest that the public sector pay cap is unsustainable and wages have to rise. How this will be funded is anyone's guess but expect job losses to fund it - compulsory redundancies are inbound.

The maths teacher spoke very well and Nicola was floundering to answer her. I am not a fan of Kezia but thought she landed a number of blows on to the SNP. Undoubted star of the show however was David Coburn UKIP....what an absolute clown.

Typical of some posters on here who didn't listen to NS's answer. They have implemented the recommendations by the Nurses body that advise on pay increases.

Yeah - I'd agree with that.  I thought Kezia came out of that quite well, but David Cockburn oh dear.  :rofl:

Pretty fair assessment. I also thought the maths teacher spoke well and that Nicola could have answered better.

 

I wasnt hugely impressed with Kezia, she doesnt strike me as a natural leader.

So where is the money coming from? Tax rises? Cuts elsewhere? Job losses? Will the SNP Manifesto tell us?

Scotland will also get a hefty slice of all these rich pensioner houses down in Surrey that the Torys want to get their mitts on when they can't even remember their own names.

Taking it a little further BB I've always thought the reporters on TV who specialise in politics should be made to disclose their political leanings (whichever party it happens to be). Because as you say people are influenced by their reports and if you knew their political affiliation then you'd have a better idea of how balanced or otherwise their reporting is.
