Leadership takes a toll, and politics can be a particularly brutal environment.
Regardless of politics, @NicolaSturgeon invested 100% of her energy to her role as 1st Minister at a particularly challenging time.
I wish her every happiness in whatever her future holds.

RT @RuthDavidsonPC: Politics for another day.
Stepping down from an all-consuming role is hard and decompression takes time. @NicolaSturgeon has done one helluva shift.
I wish her well for the future.

RT @micky_murray: Cllr Micky Murray said the death of Brianna was being felt by the trans community right across the world.
I hope this event brings comfort but I also think it brings a level of discomfort.
We don’t want to have to stand here to protest and hold vigils.

Annie's first vigil, I hope there is no need for her to attend a second.
Rest in power Brianna.

@kermeesh @chhcalling @allianceparty @GerryCarrollPBP Listen to my speech: we will not only promote organ donation but also support taking this forward in Westminster, given the Assembly failed today.
We are simply being honest that Westminster is a slower route, without any certainty.
