"From the perspective of some1 outside Scotland, this seemed to come v suddenly. I guess the big question is: how does this affect any push for Scotland's independence?" Agree it is quite sudden. Only 2 weeks ago, she was advising Laura Kuenssberg that she was 'nowhere near' stepping down. I'm not sure it changes anything re Scottish Independence. There's insufficient appetite for it amongst Scots right now. | |||

"It would be interesting to see if the SNP have the integrity to call an election now that there needs to be a ne First Minister. They did after all demand a General election on the resignations of both Johnson and Truss. (not sure if I've spelled Johnson correctly and cant be bothered Googling it. I appologise if I've gotten it wrong Boris. I know he reads these). Very hypocritical of them not to I think." Can the SNP call an election? | |||
