Congratulations to Cllr Cllr Simita Kumar for becoming the new group leader for the SNP at Edinburgh City Council! Simita is someone to definitely keep an eye on and I have no doubt she'll have a very promising future ahead in the SNP and as a public servant for Scotland! ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ

Public service reminder to folk commenting on Kate Forbes - Free Church positions on moral questions are almost always identical to official Roman Catholic positions (on contraception/divorce more liberal) so think before writing something about FC you wouldnโ€™t write about RC?

While John Swinney has undoubtedly made significant contributions to the SNP and the Independence movement as a whole, I have felt that many Scots are sensing a need for a fresh face and new direction.

In conversations with voters, I've come across a common sentiment among

Will Kate Forbes ultimately be forced to choose between politics and God?

Many of those who are rushing to endorse John Swinney (an incredibly popular person within the SNP) for SNP leadership are the same folks that rushed to endorse Humza.
How about endorsing someone who has wider appeal and who worries our opponents?

In many ways Yousafโ€™s fate was sealed early on, owing to the reluctance to definitively move on from the previous leadership. But he played - in broad terms - an important role on Gaza and dealt with outright Islamophobia daily. On this, at least, his voice will be missed.

Yousaf resigning is the right move but, it is worth saying what a loss it is to be losing one of the strongest, most unwavering world leaders on Palestine in the western world. Despite all his mistakes, his leadership on Gaza was inspirational.

I voted for Humza and stand by that vote. He was the best option we had.

However he showed poor decision-making and great naรฏvety in the past week.

His resignation this afternoon was graceful and acknowledge his mistakes. I applaud him for this.

I knew this was coming but did not think it was happening tonight. I personally never voted for Humza to be party leader, but I remained loyal and defended him during his leadership despite my misgivings about his political instincts.

There is a fundamental fact that members of

But I thought all the taxpayers were moving down south because of Scotland's higher tax rate? Surely the media weren't just talking crap as usual? I'm sure they'll report on this with the same enthusiasm as the 'very real' stories of folk moving away because of 'scary SNP taxes.'

English nationalism in all its glory.

You would never see this kind of feral behaviour at a Scottish Independence rally, yet they have the cheek to call Scottish nationalism divisive!

The media would not dare say the same about these lot though. I wonder why... ๐Ÿค”

โŒ Westminsterโ€™s Rwanda Bill violates international law, the policy is not only dangerous but also ineffective.
