MARK Smith proposes a three-part personality test in which – in his opinion – Nicola Sturgeon is starting to fail ( The three-part personality test that Sturgeon is starting to fail , The Herald, March 8). This test focuses on performance/presentation, competence (vision/managerial efficiency) and trust. Mr Smith suggests that there are signs of wear and tear in the area of trust and honesty and that these, once they have been eroded, may be difficult to recover. He runs three previous Prime Ministers – Gordon Brown, Theresa May and Tony Blair – through his test parameters and suggests that each had serious failings on one or other dimension: Mr Brown on competence, Mrs May on competence and performance, and Mr Blair on honesty.

THE answers to Mark Smith s question ( So what is going on in the secretive world of Scotland’s Don’t Know Ten Percenters? , The Herald, February 15) are clear. First, there is no overwhelming appetite for Scottish independence, and never has been. In the last Holyrood election in 2016, out of around 4.3 million registered voters only just over one million bothered to go to the polls and tick the box for the party that claimed there is overwhelming desire for separation. The reason the SNP keeps winning elections is because the pro-UK opposition parties, individually and collectively, have failed to convince voters that they can form a better government than the SNP. This is some failure, given the SNP s poor record in most areas.
