I watched in embarrassment her press conference yesterday in which time after time she backed Calderwood to stay in her job. She wants a woman who flouted the law not once but twice after preaching to the Scottish people to stay indoors to be our chief medical officer.
As severe a lack of judgement you will never see again. As I say, she has to resign herself now.

Very poor judgement by Sturgeon ... the CME had lost the confidence of everyone & to try and ride it through particularly with the seriousness of it all shows a total lack of awareness
Nicky fired her....several hours later than she should.
They mutually agreed she should resign. She was never sacked. Like I said, the press conference was a total embarrassment.
Calderwood shouldn't even have been at the press conference, she should have been sacked earlier instead of Sturgeon's pathetic attempt to defend her.
Sturgeon is not fit for purpose.
Sturgeon is not fit for purpose.
Sturgeon made a mistake keeping her in the first place and it was poor she let social media then drive policy to let her go.
Lots of politicians are making mistakes at the moment and letting social media drive policy. We cannot have them all resigning. Sturgeon clearly should not resign.

I'm against SNP's objective.....but without any doubt the leader of SNP is a very competent leader and her judgment on the doctor's competence to be her advisor should be accepted. However, the doctor should not be the person doing the TV spots etc, as she has made bad decisions that the public will view as the wrong action to take when in the position she was in.
' As severe a lack of judgement you will never see again'
Will you lay me 6/4 ?

She's getting the third degree as I type. She refuses to answer any questions of substance and admits when asked about health workers with the virus hospitalised ...."I don't know". Chronically pitiful.
absurd overreaction

So what would you do with the people leading the country’s fight against the virus, you know the three who actually caught the virus unlike the Scottish Chief Medical Officer? Just to be cleat I am talking about the Prime Minister, The Health Secretary and Chief Medical Officer. Do you think they should resign Stewart?
Would would you do with Dorris who through his own negligence may have given the virus to his girlfriend and unborn child?
Tell me how severe a lack of judgement you think The Scottish Chief Medical Officer made because I think the 3 clowns heading our defence against the virus made even worse judgement calls and fir the record Sturgeon should have ditched her as soon as she had confirmed the story was true.
Would love to hear what you think Stewart you are the OP

It was poor judgement by Sturgeon & she has dug a hole for herself with her initial backing of the CMO ... always give yourself options but as whispering says sack Sturgeon rhen Johnson has to resign ... he was shaking hands with Covid patients & shouting absurdities like Squash the Sombero ... scoreline reads Johnson 0 - Sombrero 1
The shielding services available in England appear to not be available in Scotland.
I think there's no in-depth politician in Scotland after Ruth Davidson. Sturgeon is just "Scottish Independence" only.

A bit of a contradiction don't you think?

This story is over.
She resigned. Correct decision (assuming next person is up for the job - I would hope so as Calderwood was not convincing imo).
No longer news, more pressing issues to be dealt with in Scotland.

Answer that one Stewart instead of being smug

I'm not being smug. As for the three you mention I wish them well. They didn't ask for the illness that was just bad luck.

Indeed but we don't have a leader fit for purpose.

Saw her on TV this morning,head and shoulders above most politicians,a sad loss to the political scene.

No doubt about it.

She is amazing no doubt and Sturgeon should ask for her help

So Stewart
With regard to as severe lack of judgement you will ever see do you now think this has been surpassed by Dorris for shaking hands with covid patients and not washing them, infecting members of his leadership team and unnecessarily taking up a valuable ICU bed for no reason has shown even more severe lack of judgement? Try not to be a hypocrite Stewart!

One thing I'll say for Boris and that is he's very much hands on (no pun intended) and cares for the people in this country. The sooner he's fit and well the better as a finer leader would be hard to find and a man who follows the country's wishes.

Say something else Stewart

A clown like Boris is totally out of his depth in this crisis. Obviously, I hope his health recovers but frankly he has become a liability.
probably hardly anyone who lives and works regularly in London who hasn't had it in one form or another. of course with no testing of the general population we'll never know
Whispering. A simple yes or no question. Should Sturgeon have remained as FM?
For starters, no socialist/left winger should be supporting a party based on Nationalism as its main policiy
moisok as a card carrying little red book holding Labour party member of forty five years is a huge supporter of the SNP as his party have adopted many of their policies.
the reliable supporter of a nationalist organisation turns up
at least we know you support organisations with pure nationalism at its heart
I wonder how nationalist governments end up eventually
fantasypunter needs to read some history

Thank goodness we have Labour party members of forty five years here delighted to support policies adopted by his party. Well done moisok!
Nationalism is politically dangerous and anyone supporting that is going down a historically dangerous path
like fantasypunter

I wonder if moisoks party will continue to adopt SNP policies under their new leader Starmer?
supporters of nationalism like fantasyboy identify as belonging (in this case Scotland ) to one nation which does not do bad things and purely desires to spread its own selfish interests. They are not interested in anyone else - only those north of the border - they can do no wrong in their own eyes
I wonder where else this sort of thing has taken place and what were the results?

And while you are flying it, remember and keep adopting SNP policies for your party.
Yes Stewart of course she should
If you think she should resign then do you think Dorris should be incarcerated for he has done far worse!
So give me a one word answer Stewart
Do you think Dorris should resign?

Careful moisy, old pp is trying to turn over a new leaf after being vaccinated against the hatred virus,positively polite lately !
Of course he shouldn’t Stewart and neither should Sturgeon.
The thing is you think Sturgeon should resign and has made as severe a lack of judgement you will never see again
Except maybe yours Stewart

Except that is not true either
Plenty of dishonest people about who will not admit Dorris and his Government have made many mistakes, far worse than Sturgeon or Khan but they are quick to criticise both.
Frankly I didn’t expect anything different. These people cannot debate an issue or express an opinion. They just make snide little barbs.
As for Dorris he is an oxygen thief atm., taking up a valuable ICU bed. His wife or girlfriend should look after him now and free up NHS staff to do something useful.

Boris is a clown that didn't follow the guidelines yet he should not resign? Strange. Sturgeon has followed the guidelines and is leading from the front as always but stewarty thinks her position is untenable but Boris position is fine. Hmmm...
I would like to know why Stewart think Sturgeon should resign but Dorris shouldn’t
Remember laughter is the best medicine Stewart you would be helping us all. Please give full expression to your opinion seeing you are the original poster and you do need need to give a one or even two word answer

Think you need to learn to differentiate between independence and nationalism. Brexit smacks far more of nationalism than Scottish Independence does.

how do you know
I would have thought that the examples of nationalism we have seen on the european continent would teach us that it is plain evil and concentrates on promoting one type of thinking of the self and of the nation to the detriment of others
I don't need to do anything but point out it is another nast nationalist party in operation run at the core by the hatred of england

Its not a question of "knowing" anything FFS.
Independence and Nationalism are two completely different things. This is a fact whether you like it or not. Your view doesn't change this. I was just pointing out that you need to learn to recognise that.
The rest of your post is not factual, merely your opinion.

The Provisional snp.
Siol nan Gaidheal seeks to liberate the Scottish people from the worst excesses of English/British Cultural Imperialism and believes that English people resident in Scotland will integrate into and make a full contribution to the community of Scotland.
SnG will dedicate itself to fulfilling our commitments to our country and people, we will thus not stand idly by and watch our country being used, abused or betrayed by enemies both internal and external. We are content to leave party political action to the Scottish National Party and the forthcoming Scottish Parliament.
SnG exists to promote, safeguard and stimulate a third Scottish Renaissance which will use the best past traditions of Scotland to forge a new Nation

do they stand for election? no. bunch a nutters. doesn't take away one iota from the perfectly legitimate aim of political independence.

I will debate your opinion over mine. Its perfectly fine and politically ok to be Scottish unionist, as it is to be pro-independence. That is not what we were discussing.
As I've said twice already - independence and nationalism are two different political concepts. I accept it can be difficult - a scottish "nationalist" is not a proponent of "nationalism" per se they are a proponent of "independence". Most supporters of independence would advocate policies (e.g staying in or rejoining EU whichever comes first) that were anything but policies normally associated with "nationalism". That's all.
its not a question of me not "brooking any opposition" - just highlighting the difference, which while subtle, is very significant and important.

nah you are just gullible and swallow the nationalist argument
people don't see what is ahead and will plunge off the edge of the cliff if they are not careful (metaphorically)
how long have you been a nationalist?
