Whoever added the Scotsman article about the plan to add a statue of Sturgeon to the Scottish Parliament has been had by an obvious joke: the article was released on 1 April and the supposed author is Orla Floip (an anagram for "April Fool"):

Can her arrest and the fraud investigation be included in the intro? She is the second first minister and also the second SNP first minister to be arrested after leaving office which is notable. 82.23.25.205 (talk) 23:24, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A line of inaccuracy: Sturgeon had previously stripped Trump of his ambassadorial role for Scottish businesses with the Scottish Government in the aftermath of Trump's views of (an outright ban of Muslims from entering the United States).

The American president called for an immediate suspension Trump travel ban of immigration from high terror states, such as Afghanistan to avoid importing terrorists pretending to be innocent civilians during the ongoing downfall of ISIS, later making remark to the twin towers. Months prior, Trump had stated that in WW2, many Nazi leaders, key persons migrated to the US as civilians, also factual.

This is standard practice across the world & is an accepted practice from within the UN/Legislation, states have the right to 1) protect their citizens, 2) control their borders, 3) deny migration in the interests to preserving safety & security.

The basics of Risk Assessment & the hierarchy of controls, eliminate the risk, or substitute, such as the Rawanda deal, UK.

The problematic issue Nicola had was that trump would suspend all migrants from such states without permitting them a fair check to identify those who may have been related to Islamic terror organisations. Stated by Trump: Why take the risk.

For accuracy, to correct the incorrect (an outright ban of Muslims from entering the United States), to (a suspension of Muslims from high risk countries entering the United States). 194.73.217.222 (talk) 13:49, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
