Nicola Sturgeon

[Hopkirk]

Is Nicola popular among Scottish people?

[anneasquith]

I’ll come back later Naomi. But remember disliking Boris does not count . :-)

[Bobbisox1]

What about the Royal family?

[douglas9401]

Not all living on state benefits are created equal, Bobbisox. :-)

[Bobbisox1]

Aye but you couldn’t get any more English than them ( well German) haha

[jno]

well, I have a wee dram of Scottish blood and I think Nicola's smart.

[douglas9401]

She may have a smidge of English in her according to Wikipedia.

"Her family has some roots in North East England; her paternal grandmother was from Ryhope in what is now the City of Sunderland"

[Bobbisox1]

And the seat of the Bowes Lyon not from here

anneasquith, //Naomi. Show me where I have ‘ disliked the English ‘ . //

I can't help you. You're quoting something I didn't say.

[Bobbisox1]

There’s a few Scots on here but none so anti English in her posts , she doesn’t have to say “I’m anti English” it’s glaringly obvious

[royfromaus]

I think she has an equal.

And also and equal at being anti-Scots

[ynnafymmi]

Up here in Scotland,Wee Burney appeals to the workshy,unemployable Weegies and Dundonians.Us mugs north and south of the central belt of Scotland have to pay for their useless indolence.And we aint happy.

[Bobbisox1]

Roy , not me I’m definitely not Anti Scottish, I don’t like Nicola but that’s nothing to do with where she’s from, I like them and love their s.o.h

[anneasquith]

Where/when have I said I’m anti English. You cannot just through out accusations with no positive evidence. Being pro Scottish/Irish/Welsh does not equal anti English.

[moonraker558]

She always reminds me of Rab Nesbits wife.

Raymond has not rated her:

Raymond appears to have an ophthalmic problem !!!

[Bobbisox1]

More like Jimmy Kranky Moonie :0)
And they castigate Boris ? :0))))))

[Blubster]

More like Wee Burnie from Rab C Moonraker.

[New Judge]

//She always reminds me of Rab Nesbits wife.

Actually I think she more resembles "Wee Jimmy Krankie" of the famous double act, "The Krankies":

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Krankies

Be careful, though. Some on here have referred to as such and have been soundly disciplined.

As far as Rab's relatives go, I think she plays a passing resemblance to Rab's younger son, "Wee Burney", played by the late Eric Cullen, who died tragically early at the age of 31. Unfortunately the only photo I can find of Eric is on this page which describes a somewhat tragic episode in his troubled life:

Strangely Rab's wife, "Mary Doll" was played by Elaine C. Smith who is actively involved in the Scottish Independence movement.

However we digress (considerably!).

Who would liken Nicola to Jeanette Krankie?
