Justice served

Nicola Sturgeon says Derek Chauvin's guilty verdict in murder of George Floyd means 'justice has been done'.

No doubt America was waiting on tenterhooks for the words of Nicola Sturgeon.

James Curran

She’s correct. Good news but a long way to go.

Joseph Larner O’rourke

Absolutely zero to do with the FM. She will coat-tail any popular issue going. Llorna Sshiels

World leaders everywhere are commenting on this today.

Mo Dalziel

So, because it happened elsewhere she has no right to analysis and commentary? Is locale the only relevant factor in politics? By your logic, nobody outside of South Africa had the right to condemn Apartheid.

Bryan O’hanlon

Just get hospitality open and concentrate on this country.

Feet of flame

A “supermajority” for Scottish independence is needed to “hold Boris Johnson’s feet to the fire”, Alex Salmond will say as he launches the Alba party manifesto.

Hilarious, how could anyone vote for this mob, just as bad as the SNP?

Derek Mcleod

He’ll keep pushing himself centre stage as long as he’s given the opportunity

Yvonne Mackay

Why are the independence supporters so scared of Boris? You reckon it’s a walkover but you know it isn't while he has the backing of the United Kingdom. It’s like a Jack Russell taking on a British bulldog and I know who my money is on.

Arthur Thompson

Which independence supporters are scared of

Johnson? I have yet to meet even one, most would like to meet him in the flesh to nail his lies to the nearest wall.

Kathryn Mccardle

They keep saying we need independence but not one of them can tell us how this will work. And where the money is coming from .

Margaret Gray

Salmond should start an Alba party in England were he would find many supporters of Scottish independence – mainly people who are heartily sick of the Celtic Whinge.

Joe Mcjoe

Time the “independence” nonsense was thrown on the fire. Then everyone could get on with sorting out the Snpcreated mess that Scotland is currently in.

Gordon Devlin

The decision on independence has already been made and the answer is no.
