It wasn’t Nicola Sturgeon who ‘took a stand’ on this, it was the leader of the SNP in the HoC, Ian Blackford. NS simply supported his action.

IB came under scrutiny for his lockdown decision-making, too, after condemning Cummings.

*these, goodness knows where that extra s came from!

I do remember Ms Sturgeon stood by her chief medical advisor until it became untenable.

Oh good, has she sacked her or accepted her resignation? Getting fed up with theses MPs who "regret" their "mistakes".......yes looking at you Jeremy Corbyn too today, can't count to 6 eh? From the word go none of the transgressors caught, from every political persuasion, have seemed to me to show an ounce of integrity or true remorse. Cummings was the beginning, odious man, but none since have covered themselves in glory.

Yes, well done Ms Sturgeon.

Pity the shadowy Cummings wasn't given the boot.

That's the kind of stance we should be taking.

Boris doesn't know what principles are.

Well done NS for taking a stand over Margaret Farrier MP breaking the coronavirus rules. What a pity that BJ could not have been as principled over Cummings.
