NICOLA Sturgeon gave a victory speech after the election results on Saturday and told us that her message to the people of Scotland had been endorsed by the people of Scotland and that the people of Scotland had put their trust in her and that she wanted to thank the people of Scotland for doing so and no one had the right to stop the people of Scotland from choosing their future. You got that? It’s about the people. Of Scotland. The people of Scotland. But who are the people of Scotland and what did they say exactly? In her speech, Ms Sturgeon said the SNP’s re-election for a fourth term was extraordinary and she was right. All the precedents tell us that, after 10 years or so, people get fed up with the party in power and give the other guys a try, and yet the SNP, after 14 years, and a persistently poor record in office, has attracted nearly half the vote. It’s not supposed to happen this way, and yet it has.
