Equally as bad is the pontificating shite from Scotnats defending the indefensible for purely partisan reasons. It was dully predictable that both sides would take the positions they have.

There's no way in which this isn't gross misconduct, a breach of the Civil Service Code and a fatal undermining of her own credibility.

 

Absolutely. It is consistently depressing the inability of so many people to actually have an opinion on something that isn't filtered through their political leanings first. You'd think an issue as big as this would be able to be above politics, but clearly not.

Her actions are not a 'mistake', they are that of a privileged person thinking the guidance doesn't apply to her like it does to the average Joe. She has zero credibility. When the face of the government's guidelines can't even stick to them then what chance have they got of stopping people going down the park for a BBQ? 

At best, she will be shunted to the background to help dictate policy but not be involved in communicating. She really should be sacked though.

I know but this is Scotland, where the MSM will not let go of it, it will end up distracting the govt from more important matters. 

Well, you can combat that one person at a time by letting it go.

Spectacular effort from security at Sainsbury's in Crow Road there.

Rightly enforcing the "single shopper - no groups" policy at the door, arguing with what I assume was pozbaird and his mrs that it couldn't be changed to suit anyone. Unfortunately, inside there was a bloke standing in the middle of the aisle blocking it, shouting items on the list to his bird (both of them were student age) as she walked up and down the aisle, picking up items and bringing them back for his approval. This was completely ignored by a second security guard who actually looked down said aisle.

Iain Banks would have found that amusing.

A welcome fall in the daily death rate. 

The highest number of cases in a day by a fair number. 

Roughly another 8 days of high daily case numbers.

Nicola glossing over Calderwood's arrogance,  this could backfire on her.

 

Edit. She's done it more than once, unbelievable.

Unfortunately the numbers are falsely low due to NRS not being fully seven days a week yet. sturgeon said tomorrow will be the same and then on Tuesday will catch up.

Fwiw, I can fully understand Calderwood wanting to check her house for security reasons, but that didn't need the whole family to go or an overnight stay.

Do you honestly believe that excuse? Can safely say that someone one will keep a eye on it for her
