Nicola Sturgeon has denied the SNP is in crisis as the party was forced to admit that more than 40% of its members have quit and her self-ID gender reforms were blamed for a recent mass exodus.
After weeks of refusing to provide the figure, the SNP said only 72,186 members were eligible to vote in the leadership contest – a drop of more than 50,000 on the 125,000 total the Nationalists boasted of in 2019.
In an astonishing decline, the total is believed to have dropped by more than 10,000 in this year alone as Ms Sturgeon became embroiled in a toxic political scandal over her self-ID gender reforms.
The membership tally also represents a drop of more than 30%| (31,698) on the last published count of 103,884 at the end of 2021, barely 14 months ago.
Ms. Sturgeon insisted her 89-year-old party was experiencing “growing pains” during the contest.
Just the latest instance of go woke, go broke. Will they ever learn?

“NHS bosses have been urged”. Yes and there is the problem. I worked in the private sector for my entire career. I was never “urged” to do anything. I was given clear directions of what was required by when. And usually asked what additional resources might be required. It’s really not that difficult.

And get rid of the rainbow flag. All lives matter.
I do think that “chest feeding” is ridiculous while men and women can get “breast cancer”.
