What they are doing re: Ireland is truly truly shameful. A real low point in British politics.....And then to accuse the EU of negotiating in bad faith is just jaw dropping.
We clearly signed an agreement we had absolutely no intention of abiding by, and it makes sense when you think of some of the stuff Gove and Boris were coming out with...and the DUPs silence. I guess even I didnt credit the tories with sinking to that level.

My sincere answer would be that she knows full well that they are more likely to be future SNP voters and she's scared to "offend" them.
It seems obvious to me that the biggest danger to Scotland (and the UK) keeping on top of the situation is the behaviour of a substantial minority of youngsters.

Well, well, Hundreds of students in Glasgow, Dundee and Aberdeen are having to self-isolate after 124 of them in Glasgow tested positive after Freshers Week, with more positive tests confirmed in Dundee and Aberdeen. Who would have thought???
The real worry is that they are supposed to be the most intelligent youngsters in the country. Gawd save us from the less educated ones!

Your probably right on why sturgeon is going so lightly on them Ritchie, but knowing the state of halls of residences at university in terms of space and ventilation they didn't really have much chance on freshers week.
The whole thing should have been bumped to remote learning.

What you say is true, jim, but following the basic guidelines set by the Scottish Government for all of us must surely have limited the damage now caused. I know of a student who came home after one day, because of the irresponsibility of certain students at Dundee, and is now doing remote learning.

Large events cant happen, so why should universities and schools be open, we are in a time where a virus will spread throughout these places because students aren't listening to what they are being told.
In other news Kent will now be the Brexit French border with massive queues and build up of lorries, even though a year ago the Tories said 'No red tape', that old phrase never trust a Tory again.

To be fair to the certain pressure group, students went to parties in defiance of the SG guidelines because they couldn't manage to do the sensible thing. It's nobody else's fault, it's the students' fault if they broke the rules, the same as it's any other persons' fault if they broke the rules.
I've even heard some crass comments about any ban infringing their human rights! What about the human rights of anyone they might infect? I've always thought that the human rights of the majority far outweigh the human rights of any individual.
