A commitment from @NicolaSturgeon to increase funding in tackling homelessness. Taking on the real issues and addressing them head on - this is why @theSNP is the only party standing up for Scotland! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 #SNP18 #SNPConference pic.twitter.com/GaFonQoyaS

No attempt by the First Minister to heal wounds in Scotland, all we got was intent to create yet more division. Scotland is sick of listening to talk of #indyref2 and all the negativity it brings. It's time to let Scotland move on #SNP18.

You don't need to agree with Nicola Sturgeon's policies (or policy preferences) to acknowledge that her speech - and, indeed, her worldview - has a coherence to it that's quite rare in this era of British politics.

I would also be willing to bet that @NicolaSturgeon has better things to worry about than whether people use ''Nicola Sturgeon of House SNP, First of Her Name, First Minister of Scotland, Mother of Dragons and Breaker of the Union'' every time they quote something she's said.

A beautifully expressed speech from @NicolaSturgeon setting out hope and optimism for the future of Scotland. Such a compelling message to support. #SNP18

There you go. Nicola Sturgeon calls for "perseverance, pragmatism and patience". It's almost Presbyterian in its downbeat realism. Your work's cut out, folks: there's not short cut to independence. #snp18

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
