She made herself look slightly more competent than a bunch of utter roasters of politicians. I mean it isn’t hard to do when the competition is Boris Johnson, Michael Gove, Cummings ect... she is also getting a free ride when considering her competition is that pathetic turd Richard Leonard and the Tory puppet Ross (where the **** is he btw?) She has the easiest hot seat in the world. She may as well be running unimposed due to the sheer incompetence of the other Scottish parties. As I suspected.

Don’t be so completely blinded by loyalty and naive. She is a politician with an agenda to get Scotland independence. She will do everything and anything to get what she wants. Including using this pandemic as a way of gaining popularity. So wait is she trying to gain popularity in Edinburgh or treating us unfairly, I can't keep up?

Malinga the Swinga Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 When/if we resolve this nightmare, do people really believe that any politician deserves credit for how they have bahaved? Other than the NZ prime minister, the rest of them have shown themselves to be out of touch with normal people and out of their depths in decision making. BJ & NS are right up at top of list for being useless. At least BJ looks like he cares, whereas NS looks like she is revelling in it. Both have made decisions that have caused lives and both deserve nothing but disdain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taffin Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 12 minutes ago, Victorian said: An upwards shift has to be more reactive to data. That's an obvious and natural thing. If numbers are increasing then action needs done immediately. Downwards moves will always need to pass a different set of tests. It should be blindingly obvious. It's not blindingly obvious, that's why I'm asking why that would be the case. An increase of 50 positive tests per day over say a week, is not more or less indicative than a decrease of 50 positive tests per day over a week.

There will still be a long delay before this gets rolled out though and we face restrictions for months if not years before we get back to living in some degree of normality. Is the vaccine one of the ones we have ordered millions of doses off or different one. Lots of questions but it is a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 So, in summary, NS needs to avoid upsetting her support in the west... but doesn't need to avoid upsetting her support in the east... 'cos SNP support is unquestioning likes. Plus she will claim credit for vaccinations starting... but not really 'cos it's more sort of steering the country through likes. Anti SNP arguments as coherent as ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until spring put this in to context, these are the first two vaccines that have shown evidence of vaccine offers 90% protection, that's huge. Do you know how many other vaccines are being made, and there is nothing to say we still can't improve it, or better yet someone else making a better one?. As for years i doubt that, we will be back to some normality by spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
