I'd go for Angus Robertson with Kate Forbes as his deputy. A real outsider to consider would be Richard Lochhead. However, that's all in the future.
Nicola Sturgeon has been an excellent leader of the SNP. I've never been a big fan of hers, but it would be churlish of anyone to downplay her reputation as probably the finest political leader in the whole of the UK during her 8 years in office. She had grit, determination and a talent for being a "nippy wee sweetie", unlike most of her contemporaries. She always came across as sincere and, dare I say it, honest - well, as much as a politician can be. Things have been conspiring against her in the last few months and I feel that she was reaching the end of her tether, prompting her decision. In the art of leadership she was a breath of fresh air and a credit to Scotland on the world stage.
