-All the nails hit on the head.

I still find it quite unbelievable that handed the most amazing opportunity to achieve something real for Scotland, Sturgeon never managed even a small success anywhere and in fact set Scotland back years by any genuine progressive measure:

"Even though I have been in politics for a long time, I have been First Minister for four years, there will be days when I think 'should I even be here? Is somebody about to find me out?"

-She once said. Unfortunately there was no "impostor syndrome" involved: her very actions proved her to be the fraud her conscience had occasionally highlighted.
-She has unfortunately set an astonishing record of absolute failure.

Thanks, Ken. Agreed, the whole pretence politics around Sturgeon and her circle seems to be coming apart. And the continuity candidate they’re now desperately trying to install cannot halt the exposure and collapse. Eight years of wasted political time.
