Sturgeon, Self-ID and Scottish Democracy
π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώπ¬π§ ICYMI: Has Nicola Sturgeon just been forced into playing a weaker hand in her announcement of a ‘de facto’ referendum?

It’s a gamble in which her independence movement can definitively lose, but winning doesn’t guarantee ‘the prize’ of independence. Why play those odds? pic.twitter.com/TPBbMIVXoq
A tetchy Nicola Sturgeon talks over ITV's Peter Smith and tries to portray herself as a champion of democracy, but this is complete baloney.
For example, it would be perfectly possible for the Scottish Government to hold an advisory referendum on Self-ID, but she chooses not to do do because the SNP would lose.
Scots are opposed to gender ideology and men declaring themselves to be women.
