Politics is partisan, and many will refuse to acknowledge talent because of that. IMO Nicola is a very impressive First Minister and leader. Other comments made; action not words are valid, but at least she's got the guts and determination to speak out against sectarianism and to do so in a very eloquent way. Meanwhile the football authorities do SFA.

Ach it’s just words. Actions (or at least the promise of some actions) would have been better.

I don’t really think it took much courage to stand up and condemn racism like she did. It’s a view held by many. It takes more guts to stand up and air an opinion when you’re in the minority.

Sturgeon didn’t got anywhere near far enough and has missed an opportunity to take a stand.

Pains me to say it, but the actions of Ann Budge have shown more courage and leadership following this debacle.

Do you mean her statement, rather than her actions?
