Highest-rated comment on the SnpTV Facebook post on this story was about how this was a concerted attack on "Scotland" by Salmond in cahoots with the "unionists".

Ironic how it was Salmond who opened this whole Pandora's box.

It's actually quite sad.
Here's what someone said to me yesterday, just after the session finished, quoted verbatim -

"She's handled herself very well. Been fascinating to listen and to watch as well.

She speaks well without documentation in front of her. Not like the others, picking away. The the lead convener has been good."


banghead
They class speaking well as repeating multiple versions of "I can't remember"??

There's not much requirement for the usual script when that's all you're going to say!

Vote on Thursday

results announced possibly on the sunday

giving voters a lift to the polling station will not be permitted.
I'm sure it's a complete coincidence that those voters who are mostly likely to need a lift to the polling station are also those voters least likely to vote SNP. rolleyes

My hardcore SNP friend went on a rant about the Tories yesterday. And posted a "donate to SNP" link at the end of it too!

Also mentioned "I’m also fed up and sick to the stomach by the whining of the Working class Scots that are easily sucked in by the establishment media’s anti-Scottish pish. Get a fking grip of yourselves ffs. Learn to read between fkn the lines."

And of course did the useful fallback that Edinburger always uses of even if the SNP are dodgy it doesn't matter as it's just to get independence and then we can choose our own FREEDOM anyway.

she gave an assured performance. Really, the committee had nothing. Zero. No killer blow, no smoking gun over an eight hour interrogation. Probably said more about the quality of the Tories and Labour. They are dross.

Her supporters know she made an arse of it but they're presenting a united front. Nothing can be allowed to damage the fight for independence. She could of stood up and gone full "A Few Good Men" and they'd still support her

Why would she resign? Her popularity in some floating voters may have taken a hit but she'll still comfortably win the next elections

If you're an Indie supporter who thinks she's a treacherous lying incompetent. Who else will you vote for?

Given all that is going on in the run up to this election I hope there’s going to be a very robust system of verifying postal votes .

Yep

You have to write your SNP membership number on the front so they can ensure it is valid

AND

Because of a possible plot by the unionist to flood the system with false voters they are brining in a voter ID system

BUT because of time contraints only one for of ID has been deemed acceptable

If that’s what passes for an assured performance..
I will hate to see her on a bad day.

There is a vast yawning chasm between her and Salmonds performance.

Wings on the supposed increase in new SNP members last night following Sturgeon's appearance yesterday -

"The SNP’s astroturfing operation has long been an embarrassment, but last night it hardly even bothered making the effort. A handful of accounts with 23 followers and six tweets in five years all announced they’d joined the party – just barely enough for MPs and activists to have several to retweet – and a scattered few punted the “7000” figure (along with the one poor sap who’d been fed the “10%” line instead) for the same reason and lo and behold there was a narrative."

And an example of the responses on twitter to this membership explosion laugh

Angus must surely be busy readying another poll in time for the Sunday papers.

It's fooling her supporters.

My dad despises her and he thought she was excellent yesterday, as he said, consumate politician, obfuscate, play with emotions, bluster...EA, it's all in the game. The whole lot of them are a bloody disgrace, she is just the same as the rest, I wish her supporters would realise that.

Why do people say comfortably win. They never comfortably won last time did they, aren't they a minority government?

Nah, you missed nothing. Just the usual obfuscation from the SNP, and something or other about an 'inquiry'?
