Scotland's National Poseur (2)

 

Nicola Sturgeon's attention-seeking antics during the Euro football finals suggest another meaning for the acronym SNP - Scotland's National Poseur.

"Now where did I leave that poker?", was my first reaction.

Another thought that struck me is why travel for an audience with the Queen - was this really 'essential business' or just another silly photo opportunity?

The business of polishing Nicola Sturgeon's image is a 24/7 operation - I wonder what silly antics we can look forward to ahead of tomorrow's England v Scotland match?

Nicola Sturgeon seems to think these big sporting events are about her, the Scottish Government and/or the SNP.

Mind you what another stroke of good fortune to have a snapper on hand to capture the moment for posterity!

How fortunate there was a photographer passing at just the the right time to capture this spontaneous snap of the First Minister glued to Scotland vs Czech Republic in the Euro Finals. 

Next thing they'll be telling us is Nicola really enjoys watching football.

Yet Scottish Tories pocketed £319,000 from secretive trust with no fixed address or known current trustees. @Conservatives legally responsible for checking true identity of donors before accepting cash. #DarkMoney "

SNP - Conspiracy of Silence

So here's the issue - two Glasgow MSPs (Nicola Sturgeon and Humza Yousaf) have been asked a reasonable question about their use of public money to employ two SNP councillors who already have full-time, salaried jobs as senior elected members of Glasgow City Council.   But these two public servants (both long-serving ministers) refuse to answer, so what to do next? One regular reader suggests raising the matter on the floor of the Scottish Parliament which is a good idea, but requires an MSP who's prepared to put down a written question for Scottish Ministers to answer.
