Hmmm …
That’s something.
Alex Salmond, Scotland’s First Minister, the man who organised Scotland’s Independence Referendum, Leader of the Scottish Nationalists and possibly the best known conviction politician in the UK, has resigned his post.
Both as SNP leader and First Minister.
I have to say, I , personally, was expecting him to stick around for longer: but he said it, himself, it’s not the politicians leading Scotland’s politics, but “ … the energised activism of tens of thousands of people who I predict will refuse meekly to go back into the political shadows.”
The man’s career has been devoted to his country.
And frankly … ? Frankly, I couldn’t see David Cameron, Nick Clegg or Ed Miliband doing the same, had the referendum given a yes vote.
Cynical … ?
Of COURSE I’m cynical!
We’re talking about politicians, here.
