they are kidding themselves.

Gwern Mackie Might we have reached phase 1 sooner if those already flouting the social distancing rules hadn’t? And will we take longer to reach phase 2 if these same people continue to do so and/or their actions slacken even further? What people need to understand is what you do affects all of us. And unfortunat­ely I can’t give you a slap as that would be mean coming within two metres...

Don’t let the Dominic Cummings affair overshadow serious questions for the Scottish Government over its handling of the coronaviru­s outbreak, said Ian Murray MP.

Steady Ian, Nicola and the Scottish Government have done some serious work on an unknown killer, lessons have been learned, unlike our Westminste­r chums who lie and take us for fools.

Brian Gunn Well the Tories have certainly lost my vote, because of Bozzer’s poor judgement and Cummings’ complete lack of it. Bet many folk feel the same.

Christine Wooley If Ian wants to be an MSP he should stand as one. He works at Westminste­r and should stick to reserved issues only.

Peter James Better late than never on the bandwagon. Now let’s see some action on the important points on Nicola’s administra­tion.

Michael Gordon The Cummings situation must have been a dream come true for the SNP but it’s not going away and they should be held accountabl­e for their mistakes instead of the followers just deflecting to England and letting this party get away with anything.

More than half of Scots want a second independen­ce referendum in the next five years, suggests new polling.

With the financial and economic aftermath of Covid, of necessity the overwhelmi­ng priority for the next decade or two, good luck with that. Great news for vendors of flags and face paint, though.

Margot Stewart

No we don’t all want yet another indyref. Why can’t Nicola and co take ‘No’ for an answer? Not until she gets the answer she wants!

Alison Webster

I think the majority is going to be a leave vote, especially after all the empty promises.

Paul Mccan

We have to draw a final line under Scottish separation in five years or so time, it seems, as the first result in 2014 doesn’t seem to have been respected. By then we really will have to be moving on from the nationalis­t stuck record and faux grievances.

Chris Storey

Bring it on. I voted Yes last time , but this time a resounding No! I have far more informatio­n on the subject now than I had then. Like so many more of us Scots, we stay united.

Paul Falconer Once this furlough malarkey ends and unemployme­nt goes through the roof because businesses realise it’s financiall­y not viable to remain in business, an independen­t Scotland will be the last thing on any sane Scot’s mind.

Kevin Duff

We had the chance and didn’t take it, so nope for at least 25 years. Let’s just work together. Covid is not a key to the independen­ce door.

Andy Burt

Well there won’t be any of those pesky elderly to get in the way, eh?

Colin Henderson 630 people want independen­ce is all the poll showed. 1000 people were surveyed and we know that part of the cybernat tactic is to sign up to panels like Mori to swell the numbers.
