It was pretty obvious she'd run out of steam. The whole movement has. It'll be interesting to see who takes over, there are no obvious candidates. Kate Forbes would be my choice she seems quite sensible but she's just had a baby. Fergus Ewing would be the dream but he's fallen well out of favour with the teenage element of the SNP.

Obviously I'm a unionist, but I've a few friends and family in Scotland who want independence, and they've been pulling their hair out regarding the SNP's dafly lefty / woke agenda. They think it's turned off / p!ssed off any number of people who might have otherwise voted SNP, and she's been the poster-girl for it.
Successor...? I think it should be Hamza Yousaf.

Said it before, a lot of the snp voters are actually quite Conservative with their views. I know plenty who are anti immigration, pro North sea oil and hated the gender reform act.Obviously I'm a unionist, but I've a few friends and family in Scotland who want independence, and they've been pulling their hair out regarding the SNP's dafly lefty / woke agenda.

Nicola Sturgeon’s legacy in six graphs
Nicola Sturgeon has announced that she is resigning, after eight years as First Minister. She has been in charge for a long time: a full generation by some definitions. This is certainly time enough to make your mark on a country with devolved powers unparalleled in the democratic world. But as...

Sturgeon did have a good following with her supporters,jumping into bed with the greens has been her downfall, can't see anyone else in the SNP fill her shoes,just wonder how much dirt is about to surface,I would think independence is dead for now.

Not sure she'll want to leave a 6 month old baby to become FM, but stranger things have happened and she's fairly switched on

Saw some commentary suggesting her religious views would conflict with the SNP "Progressives"?

This is not a day for (intelligent) unionists to celebrate.
I've said for quite some time that Nicola is a difficult character to warm to regardless of your stance on Scottish Nationalism, if she happens to be replaced by an appealing charismatic type it could cause an independent Scotland to become a lot more trendy in time to come.
Careful what you wish for

You can have Drakey if you like. We'll even have a whip round for his bus fare.
