C4Ciaran Well to be fair, she's got to say that, because it's so f***ing cold in Scotland between October and April.
C4Ciaran please stop calling it a cap
C4Ciaran It's her job to ensure Scotland leaves the UK. Less of the colonial handwringing from the fool that tried to save England from Brexit. Not her job.
