Nicky Sturgeon, we implore ya,
Open up your Scottish border,
We remainers want to flee,
England’s Brexit misery.

As you quit the House of Bute,
In your bright red power suit,
Grant us refuge in your land,
(England has got out of hand).

Indy EU member state,
Is the dream we contemplate,
When you’re gone we’ll miss you lots,
Farewell Nicky, Queen of Scots 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Was saddened when Nicola Sturgeon announced her intention to step down as First Minister but understand entirely. Strongly believe that the FM’s tireless leadership has been instrumental in creating a more just, equal, and inclusive Scotland. #Scotland #ScottishPolitics #FirstMinister #snpleader #NicolaSturgeon

Dear Nicola,

I was deeply saddened to hear that you will be stepping down as the First Minister of Scotland, but wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for your trailblazing work and exceptional leadership during your time in office.

In the face of the unprecedented challenges posed by the
COVID19 pandemic, you and your government demonstrated unwavering strength and leadership in guiding Scotland through one of the most significant crises in its peacetime history. As someone who was required to shield, I do believe that while it was an incredibly stressful and frightening time, your tireless efforts and dedication to mitigating the impact of the pandemic on the economy and our communities, have been nothing short of awe inspiring.

As the first woman to be elected First Minister of Scotland, you have been a true inspiration to women and girls in Scotland and beyond. Your commitment to breaking down barriers and empowering minority
communities has been nothing short of remarkable, and it's clear that your impact extends far beyond Scottish politics.

Your government's unwavering commitment to excellence and your willingness to mentor and guide the next generation of women and girls in Scotland has been truly inspiring. You have championed the rights of all people, irrespective of their background, and your dedication to promoting inclusion and diversity is faultless. Your tireless leadership has been instrumental in creating a more just, equal, and inclusive Scotland.

As one of your constituents, I have been privileged to watch the significant and sustained changes you have brought about. Your impact on Scottish politics and society cannot be overstated, and I know that your legacy will continue to inspire us all for many years to come.

I am excited to see what the future holds for you, and I have no doubt that, whatever you do, you will continue to seek opportunities to make Scotland fairer, safer and stronger.

With the utmost gratitude and respect.

Yours,

Rob McDowall

In politics we fight for what we believe to be right, not what is merely expedient. GRR is one such example. So anyone who pitches their leadership bid on dropping a commitment to see this through can kiss my vote goodbye! No retreat from Human Rights.#GRR #SNPleader
