In light of tedious, racist right wingers trying to make themselves relevant, I reiterate full support for the principled, humane stance of @HumzaYousaf , First Minister of Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. PS That's Time mag cover in case they missed.

Stunning YouGov Poll: 72 % across the entire UK prefer the Scottish Government's tougher quarantine policy for ALL travellers from abroad. Just 18% prefer UK Government's which only requires travellers from 'red list' countries to quarantine. Common sense.

Huge majority of Britons support Scotland’s tougher quarantine rules

Survey shows why UK government must ‘rethink its approach’, claims SNP

Lisa Cameron - hours from being deselected as an SNP MP, defecting to a hideously right wing Tory Party which is diametrically-opposed to the SNP social values she used to get elected is such a treacherous, perfidious & egregious political act; showing an utter lack of principle.

Genuinely dreadful that @NicolaSturgeon has to fight not only the Covid virus but a shower of blatant political opportunists in the opposition parties intent on sniping at everything she does regarding a complex issue ONLY because she supports Independence.

If Unionists had a positive case for the Union they wouldn’t use dirty tricks.

We all knew the chaotic, corrupt-and frankly utterly incompetent-UK Gov were feart of the 'formidable' Nicola Sturgeon & how she showed up its shambolic, callous response in being well briefed & putting people's lives first. But nice to have it confirmed, thanks Mark Drakeford🙂

Is that the @NicolaSturgeon advised by experts like Professor Jason Leitch PhD CBE BDS FDS RCS RCPS DDS FRCS; Masters in Public Health Harvard; Fellow 3 Royal Colleges of Surgeons; National Clinical Director, and the Agriculture College graduate & part time linesman Douglas Ross?

Nicola Sturgeon is being "too cautious" with isolation rules leaving essential services short-staffed, Scottish Tory leader Douglas Ross has said.

Hey @toryboypierce - What's with saying 'that woman in Scotland'?' You mean the very hardworking 'First Minister of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon', who actually cares about people and is bringing in well explained measures to try to save lives. Why so disrespectful?

I may explode if I hear one more lazy received opinion re Ruth Davidson. She is NOT wildly popular in Scotland; that is a unionist media construct. Her self-branded Tory party received just 11.7% in 2019 EU election +predicted for total wipeout in a General Election @bbcaq #bbcaq

Hi @adamboultonSKY - where on earth did you get the idea you 'announced' that Scotland's Covid picture is worse than England's? Shocking to state such a basic inaccuracy on #skynews . Here's just one easily found, reliable source of info:

What an odious, lying and dissembling woman @PennyMordaunt is: an entirely graceless apology for the great offence she caused by her ignorant, cruel and callous comments about safe rooms. (Even childishly using the stupid, deliberate wrong name for the SNP🙄)

SNP MP Stewart McDonald has challenged Penny Mordaunt directly over her “ignorant and contemptuous” dismissal of Scotland’s drug consumption room and demanded an apology He has previously spoken of the death of his brother Malcolm in 2020 of a drug overdose

I hope it will always be remembered in Scotland how the lowgrade opposition politicians contributed nothing to the national effort on Covid but opportunistic sniping as they could not set aside Unionism, even in a health crisis & just oppose EVERYTHING the First Minister does.
