Ruth’s on air

The Scottish Tory leader in Holyrood, Ruth Davidson, is to host a new radio show in London for LBC called The Inconvenient Ruth.

What has Ruth ever done for anyone other than Ruth, during her entire political career that merits a seat in the House of Lords, or any high paid office? As far as I know she’s never been a minister of state or even been in a government that was in power. She just talks a good game and does absolutely nothing at all.

Jon Clark Hopefully she’s moving there to live off the English taxpayer after we achieve independence. They can keep her.

Suavegav Markham The Inconvenient #Baronessruth would be a better title, I feel.

Rachel Bell The inconvenient truth, Ruth, is you’ve only ever been an expensive irrelevance to British public life, and a seat in the Lords should not delude you otherwise.

Lucien Romano

I thought she quit politics to look after her child. I suppose when you know you are going to lose your seat, it’s as good an excuse as any.

Don Thompson

She will ca’ the Scots for everything – another selfserving MP.

Laird Ronald Simpson

Well why not, Ruth? I am sure when our beloved First Minister goes she will do like most other politicians do these days and make loads of money

Robert Mcneil Poor London. Doesn’t deserve this.

Chris Mcconville BARONESS, I’ll have you know!

Gary Marchbank She won’t survive among the big fish.

Michael Gordon So popping back for FMQS between family, Lords and radio? You can do too many things and be a Jill of all Trades

Mark Astbury She doesn’t half fancy herself doesn’t she?

Janet Campbell Or it could be called an Inconvenient Baroness. Or Tell Me No Lies. Or The Baroness Does Radio. Or At home with the Baroness. The list is endless.

David Wood The incompetent Ruth more like.

Kirsty Greig Just so we are all aware and I hope this shames those posting the bile on here about Ruth Davidson show the fee for her one hour show is to be donated to Maggie’s Cancer Centre in Edinburgh. Hopefully it will raise a lot of money for this wonderful charity

Stuart Offer

I am sure she can afford to waive her fee given that she will be receiving over £300 per day in an unelected and undemocratic House of Lords . . . where she can spout any old rubbish and be completely unaccountable for her actions or views

Janice Morrison

Davidson is a good orator and will do well in this new role – as long as she keeps away from politics.

MK Devlin

Well done Ruth , ignore all the nasty comment from people who should know better. Strange these SNP supporters didn’t spout all their bile when their last leader took up his radio show for Russia. Double standards once again. I’m not a Tory lover, but it’s just good to see someone getting on in life

Pauline Downie I don’t think Scotland wants her so London you are welcome. Please note this is a non-returnable item.

Hugh Mitchell

Now is the time for the Scottish Branch Tory Leader Douglas Ross MP to step up to the plate and stand up to Boris as he said he would. Otherwise he loses all credibility if he votes for a Bill that breaks international law.

Douglas Martin

Nicola Sturgeon e is “crippling” Scotland now and has done so since indyref

Brendan Burns

Roll on independence for Scotland and we can then have a controlled border where anyone entering England from Scotland will need a passport check and baggage search.

Les Jones With Ms Sturgeon ruining our country economically and in the other key parts of government by inserting loyal nationalists into every position of influence rather than competent people we get poor decision-making. That’s why we have hospitals that haven’t opened and our children’s education is declining . Perhaps she is the biggest danger to devolution and the Scottish Parliament.
