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. 

I know that but it's still welcome, the UK figure will also be taking a dunt for the same reason, I was expecting us to break the 1000 barrier by Tuesday, this just givese a glimmer of hope that that's not the case.

Sack the c**t

Her position is clearly untenable but you don't sack her in the middle of a crisis as that makes the government look bad. She'll be quietly resigning once we are a couple of months the other side of this.

Much as I despise Rees Mogg they're just doing what any investment firm should be doing, partly to stop people's pensions taking a kicking. It's not like they were shorting airlines before 9/11.

What absolute nonsense. Private equity firms using their collective financial clout to short companies can send people out of work at perfectly viable businesses or send them to the wall entirely - so much for their pensions then. That is the direct cost of the massive economic volatility that these vultures are seeking to exploit.

She has to go, her credibility is completely gone after this.   In her position she has to lead by example, she did not, she has made a massive error of judgement and should resign.

 

 

 

Her credibility had went more than a week ago if you had heard her car crash of a interview defending Prince Charles getting a test when health workers were unable to get one

In this case there wasn't any mention of shorting, just buying at what they hope is the bottom of the market.

They directly contribute to dragging it to the bottom in the first place by shorting targeted firms. That is how it works.
