       https://www.scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/news/politics/nicola-sturgeon-preparing-snp-throw-37535372A war of words between the pair was re-ignited on Saturday during the former First Minister's interview with Iain Dale. She suggested that the former MP was "obsessed" by her and that she had two shows on because it would be all about her. She also branded her book "shit." Ms Cherry responded to this criticism in a brutal riposte during her sell-out show with Dale where she highlighted that Ms Sturgeon's reputation had taken a battering, and that it wouldn't be long before the SNP decided it had had enough of the former leader. And she pondered whether this was why Ms Sturgeon decided to slate her long-term number two John Swinney. Ms Cherry suggested that this was Ms Sturgeon laying the groundwork to quitting the SNP before being turfed out due to being an "embarrassment." She was asked by Dale about who she thought could lead the independence movement to achieve its dream and pointed out that all former leaders had been treated "like a Messiah."She said: "That's part of the problem with the SNP. First of all, they thought Alex [Salmond] was the Messiah but then they chucked him. And then they thought Nicola was the Messiah. And it looks like, to my astonishment, it looks like the party probably will throw Nicola under the bus now." Ms Cherry was also scathing when discussing her rival's reputation, refusing to call her a bully but labelling her a "Stalinist" because "she couldn't bear to be challenged and was not interested in discussing ideas, policy or strategy" and that was why she was in a "mess" now. She went on: "I spent a lot of my time and a considerable amount of money on legal [fees], on lawyers, defending myself from attacks, not from the Conservative party, not from the Unionist wing, but from people within my own party who attempted to smear my reputation because I was somebody who wouldn't bow the knee to Queen Nicola.

       @HebrideanHecate This is interesting.I thought she would lie low for a bit, then quietly get shunted into a consultancy or other grift (my money was on the UN as a woman's advocate or the WHO as pandemic planning). Why stir the shit and draw attention to herself and not in a good or sympathetic way either?We shall see.

       @KeepTakingTheSoma She is highly narcissistic, always was, this is only too typical of her, but yes, I fully expect her to fail upwards in some place to come.
