Attacking Salmond like she's doing throughout isn't  a good idea. He avoided that completely. You know if he's so bad why was he such a close friend of yours for 20 odd years ?

No doubt in my mind from the evidence we've seen (and hasn't been redacted or shredded) that she has broken the ministerial code. I mean no one can seriously believe her and her husbands story with a rational mind   The QCs letter yesterday shows the SG has fucked up very badly here.

Also it's clear now after yesterdays evidence that the Aberdein meeting was a SG meeting and would have been minuted, not some casual chit chat in the corridor.

At the very least Evans and Wolffe should be resigning today.

I haven't really been following this at all but do you think this will end in her resigning or will she survive this?

She will front it out until after the elections at least I reckon. This committee is xxxx useless.

As much as I like sturgeon it looks like the evidence is compelling that she used her influence with the civil service and the LA to stitch up Eck. It should be a resigning matter even before you get to the lies to parliament and mysterious memory lapses.... but we live in difficult times and I'm not sure its cutting through with the public in Scotland much.

Shes there being accused of lying to Parliament, so far I don't really see how she did, still no clear evidence of that, I'm not so sure she is guilty.

Well the evidence of Pringle and Hamilton shows she was aware of the allegations before she told parliament and according to them offered to intervene in the issue. And it certainly seems like she knew from even before the Aberdein meeting.

The notion that she just completely forgot about this meeting that contained information of the gravity we know it did is frankly ludicrous. Just as daft as her husband going upstairs to avoid a meeting with Salmond and sturgeon because it was Scottish gov business and not SNP.

She's misled parliament, and the government have obfuscated and stymied an investigation into holding them to account. It's not a good look.

Having the First Minister and Chief Exec of the SNP living together isn't wise for good governance either.

After today's performance I don't think Nicola has anything to worry about, she was calm and composed and the Unionists on the committee got more and more desperate and now people have seen that there appears to be alot more support for Nicola.
