Default SNP have no choice.

Scottish SNP Margaret Ferrier has just put two fingers up to everyone, therefore I have started this as a separate thread, 'cos it will probably get closed as many people will have strong opinions about it.

Instant dismissal should be the outcome, no arguments or questions.

Hopefully we can discuss this topic as someone who travelled by train having tested positive for covid and have brought their "employer into disrepute", that way we can avoid politics. Like spreading covid, it is up to us to reframe from political arguments.


Indeed her employer has been brought into disrepute and no employer wants that.
Perhaps she should be sacked but is it another example of employees bringing their employers into disrepute? I'm sure other employees have brought their respective companies into disrepute. Are customers are getting cheesed off?

See, no politics

This has precious little to do with the "P" word.

It's to do with the walking gobby ones determined to be special ones with superlative powers and position. They just happen to be MP's and I couldn't give a tossed penny for them. Don't care if they are sky blue pink with a Finny Haddie Border either (you might need a Northern translator for that).

Unfortunately their captive constituents, eager for a bandwagon on which to jump, are to blame for electing such idiots on such flimsy grounds. A plague on them. Oh, there is.

I would have thought the wilful and deliberate spreading of Covid, and there can be no plausible deniability when you are in possession of a positive test, should be punishable in law, irrespective of punitive measures taken by her employers.


How about this??

I'm not sure she can be accused of "wilful and deliberate spreading of Covid". Has it been proved anyone has contracted covid from her as a result of the two train journeys and even if they have, "wilful and deliberate spreading of Covid" would be hard to prove
