@ka8895 No. The next ones coming. Staff shortages. Sturgeon will already have moved on. She doesn’t do reflection. She can’t remember the past. Convenient.

That tsunami seems a bit shit now. Wonder if the First Minister will apologise for it now?

@wilfulblindness @LesleyRiddoch Was there not something about waiting for the NO voters to die off. This crazy idea works both ways. Stalemate.

@castleintegrity @ArgyleBecky @DunkytheBrit Agreed. Let’s see.

@GowPeter1 @ArgyleBecky @DunkytheBrit She can ease staff shortages in an instant by relaxing the rigid 10 day self isolation rule.

OMG just one Scottish Omicron patient required intensive care treatment in last 5 weeks yet the SNP deliberately kept this secret. The figures also reveal that less than 100 individuals have required hospital treatment in the 5 weeks since Omicron surfaced edinburghlive.co.uk/news/edinburgh…

Just finished The Beatles: Get Back 3 part film on Disney+. Hang in there. When they hit those first chords on the rooftop concert. Goosebumps.

@stuglow Different times, different challenges.

@david_bushby She will claim this as a victory. Justification of her actions. It’s politics. To hell with the rest. No one will challenge her. She has no shame.

@castleintegrity Sturgeon is waiting for the data. Waiting for the data to back her decisions. This could take some time…

Train services now on a temporary timetable due to staff absence. Sturgeon contributing directly to this by insisting on 10 days self isolation, unlike any other part of UK, or the USA, or France. Ridiculous.

@GallIain @theSNP Sturgeon will justify her actions as having worked by virtue of the low numbers. She will claim it as a success. It will be one of the things she is most proud of. Had there been restrictions and high numbers - our fault for not following rules. Win-win for Sturgeon. Politics.

1 person admitted to intensive care since Omicron appeared 5 weeks ago. What on earth has happened that ⁦@theSNP⁩ inflict unwarranted restrictions and won’t even release the data sets to back up their decision making. Economy, jobs all at severe risk dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-…

@GallIain @theSNP If we ran our businesses like Sturgeon runs her administration - we'd be out of business. There is no accountability. Scottish ministers seeking a 'letter of comfort'. I'd suggest the only letter of comfort many Scots would seek is her resignation. Not going to happen.

This sums up @thesnp perfectly. They love grandstanding and the publicity of making grand statements but they never consider the details or reality of delivering these promises. Time and time again they let Scotland down with their amateurish approach to government. #snpout22

@juliehepburnsnp Your campaign for independence may have a better chance if you started with a campaign of competence. We have too much government in our lives. Holyrood should be working in the background delivering for Scotland, not in our faces every day controlling our lives. Wheesht.

@roketronnie The police don’t know who has Hogmanay licenses? Is that the best they can come up. Not a credible explanation.

Ok it’s all clear now, there were 6 police vans to check the licensee’s credentials, must be a lot of paperwork involved, checking, double checking, triple checking etc etc etc

@WonPeople Yes. My walls are covered in art.

Do you own any “art”?

@valoakley25 A tricky one. They know where they are parking. They either don't give a toss, are ignorant, or thick. Take your pick. No matter what, you've got yourself a right tosser of a next-door neighbour. Invite them in for a welcoming cup of tea and educate them on street etiquette.

@Don_MacKenzie__ That's the Scotland I live in. Happy New Year to you Don.

Out walking the dog yesterday am. Passed numerous people. Warm ‘Happy New Year’ greetings, unconditional and friendly behaviour from strangers. That is the real Scotland. The angry bigots are a small vocal minority. So sad that they have taken control and hijacked our country.

@KeithRSteele @juliehepburnsnp You are right Keith. I finished with a question mark - all replies welcome.

@themajorityscot Twitter-world getting excited about this video. True, it looks bad. Looks very bad. I'd like to hear from the manager and bar staff as to what prompted this. If it turns out to be heavy handed policing then the officers involved need sent on a conflict resolution refresher course

Sending SIX police vans to a restaurant is undoubtedly unnecessary escalation and intimidation. Surely, a couple of police officers could have talked to the manager. Instead, multiple officers were sent into the premises to intimidate, scare, assault and arrest random people. 1/4

@KeithRSteele @juliehepburnsnp Keith - I was being polite. I agree with you.

@juliehepburnsnp It is good to have a vision. No one will argue that we want to live in a fair and just society. We should be well down that road after 14 years of the SNP in charge, but, we are not. We have never been more divided, angry and fed up than we appear to be now. What went wrong?

@IreneDonald11 I’d like to hear from the bar staff. Were the police doing a random check, or were they called in by the staff. What sparked this.

Part 1 & 2 Just saw these this morning & I’m shocked! Nicola Sturgeon’s Scotland.
