I think you’re reading your own social assumptions onto it without any real understanding of Scottish social attitudes or politics. As I’ve already said, public polling consistently put Kate Forbes ahead of the others, in many cases because of her conservative outlook. Scotland is not Islington.

You only need to listen to what the opposition parties in Scotland are saying this evening to understand just how much they wanted Humza Useless to get the job rather than Kate Forbes.
