Honestly, if this wasn't so serious for we Scots we would all think it was a huge joke.
The calibre of candidates to run our erstwhile proud country is so poor, no wonder Sturgeon held office for 8 years.
Prime candidates are;
Humza Youseff; What can you say about him? Dull as dishwater, failed claim against a nursery fhe accused of racism after he and his wife threw the rattle out of the pram when their wean was refused a place.
Recently, as Health Minister, presided over the longest waiting lists in history with Doctors issuing safety warnings all over the place. Sturgeon must have been fed up batting away calls for his resignation for incompetence. The biggest laugh though is, as Transport Minister, being fined and 6 points awarded for speeding and driving without insurance in Dingwall. How did he get away without his head rolling on that one?
He says he would unite the country?? Errrrr, I don't think so?

Kate Forbes; Well, her situation is fundamentally (I use that word advisedly) flawed in that she is a devout member of the Wee Free Kirk which stymies her flexibility to be objective somewhat. Or to embrace easily shift in cultures beyond their own interpretation of the bible. Mixing Church and State is a definite no no and her views on the gender debate renders her unelectable.

Ash Regan; Principled, but again a Pariah in the eyes of the left woke brigade after she resigned on the gender reform platform. Hence unelectable.

Angus Robertson; In my view, a dark horse outsider who has ruled himself out might just yet be persuaded I think? A safe pair of hands compared to the contenders above certainly. If he doesn't stand, then, we are in for a situation where the only viable candidate is Youseff? F.F.S?
Mind you, if Mhairi Black throws her hat in the ring it really will be a circus parade. W.T.F?

Whatever, I have previously said I have watched the Office of 1st Minister be gradually and relentlessly eroded since Donald Dewar held it. It is about to plumb new depths with the absolute paucity of talent in that line up.

Ash Regan for me.
Dont dissagree on quality, but please not Humza Yuseless and never a wee free extremist.
Who ever it is, i hope thats the end of the ridiculous green alliance.
Never has so much power been weilded by so few unellected and incompetent nuttas.
Far and away the best of an extremely bad lot Alan.
The standard is so low it's almost incomprehensible, certainly to them.:D
I would be gobsmacked if she got it though after her stance on gender reform?
Yuseless seems to me unassailable given the leanings within the party.
I almost wish that Sturgeon would reconsider the standard is so bad.:(:(
Did I just say that?????:eek::eek:

P.S. Edit for Mows and Westie.
Don't worry lads, I have just taken temporary leave of my senses.
I've made an appointment with my therapist, you know, the one out of Afterlife?
He'll sort me out, soon be back on the straight and narrow.:D

How can we accept a new leader of our country with a minority vote?? Same as the PM. Surely this needs changed? If a leader who is in power stands down there has got be an election? It seem bizarre but of course UK politics have been a farce since Cameron bowed to his fear of losing power and had a vote on Brexit.....🤦🤷‍♂️

Well if either the Wee Free or the Welsh bird, Ash Dai Bach, win the Greens have said they will walk away.
Well worthwhile then for either of them to win and get rid of that hopeless, empty headed Canadian lunatic and the wee tweed bedecked incompetent dandy then?
Also, it would force an election with Labour particularly smelling blood?
I'm away to top my glass up.
This is the best fun I've had for years.:D
If I can allow myself to forget the serious consequences that is?

Being a fan of absurdity I can see no bad candidates. From fun girl Forbes to that clueless bullsh!tter Yuseless to the prospect of having a Welsh sheila trying to wreck the union. I'm just hoping that pompous gobby shortarse Blackford has a go or maybe the toad faced sex pest himself fancies a comeback. Superb stuff that shows us in the finest possible light.

Well, no surprise this morning?
Kate Forbes is ostensibly out of the running following her remarks on radio about her religious beliefs and her open admission that she would not have voted for same sex marriage. That resulted in a melt down among her key supporters with gasps of shock and horror at the very thought even though they were aware of her views.
You have to admire her for being honest, but, honesty and politics are never good bed fellows (pardon me :D)
So, after a spectacular volley to both feet, her election wagon, barely starting to roll, now has a very dodgy single wheel to run on.:cool:

Ash Regan, in the absence of Angus Robertson who would have walked the contest, is by far the best contender but, her views on gender reform leaves her, like Fun Girl Forbes, sleeping in the traps.
So, the door has now been wedged open for Yousless to stroll into the hot seat.:eek::eek:
God forbid!!!!!!!!
Can someone not persuade Father Jack Stevenson to come out of retirement and enter from the blind side???
Anyone?????????
Please?????????
Anyway, my glass is now topped up once more in expectation of much more fun unfolding in the next round of Scotland's very own Sh*t Show.:)
Anyone hear anything new about the Murrel's scrape with the polis????:D
