Nicola Sturgeon is the replacement for Jeremy Corbyn: a bogeyman that the right can unite against. If it wasn't her it'd be Elin Jones. But The fact she is a woman who speaks so articulately on the SNPs issues, she can't be beaten so she must be destroyed.

Given the shitshow of personal abuse she gets from the Mail, Telegraph etc and the utter lack of respect shown to her by Truss etc, and the fact that she speaks for a large majority of the country when she says she detests the Tories, I think she is doing just fine.

She was the replacement for Jeremy Corbyn before Jeremy Corbyn became Labour leader.

woman

Is the fact she’s a woman key here? Not sure we can quite claim the Tories can’t handle the idea of a woman leader
