To me everything is about independence, and with that comes running a sound government that sits bang in the centre and and accommodates to all in some respects.
I am not going through all the pro and cons to sturgeon however “guiding us through covid” it’s hardly an argument, that’s her job and tbf apart from being a better orator than those to the south(and no partying) it was very similar to the RUK.
regarding voting, I don’t think folk will vote for a party only on independence, that’s why she and the party are in big trouble!! The independence leverage only last so long, add into the mix the government has been in steady decline since 2014 then you are going to see a kick back.I don’t think folk are stupid but I think foresight is something the majority of Joe Public lack.
