  1. Nicola Sturgeon is the face and name and shepherding spirit of an independent Scotland. But she knows she can no longer deliver on her one and only important promise: her covenant with the Scottish people. As independence, as a once great and potential future, disappears into the airy ether of history, she quite fittingly departs the stage with it. At last, the SNP is revealed as the one-issue party it always was - and that issue is now off the table, out the door, and away across the dreich hills and yonder. Goodbye, wee lass, goodbye... Also, she is a nice lady - but, boy, does she like the sound of her own voice? She has this maddening ability to wield hundreds and hundreds of flowingly sonorous words...and not really say anything at all. Gets right on my tits, so it does.
