John Swinney, Scottish FM - a safe pair of hands?
#9
As a regular SNP voter and Independence supporter over many years, I found it interesting today that John Swinney marked the 10th Anniversary of the Independence Referendum vote with a positive speech and numerous interviews. As the title of the thread points out, many consider him to be a safe pair of hands - perhaps too safe? To coin a phrase from many years ago, "softly, softly, catchee monkey" might be the plan.

Despite both the Brexit disaster and Tory austerity hitting Scotland hard over the past decade, support for Independence has barely changed. Could it be that the Scottish voters do smell the coffee, but with no sugar to sweeten it and the self-inflicted taste of sour milk, don't like what they are being asked to drink?
