NICOLA Sturgeon has told Boy George he'd be welcome in Scotland after the singer tweeted he was moving following May's disastrous Brexit vote.
The former lead singer of Culture Club, popular for hits such as Karma Chameleon and Do You Really Want to Hurt Me, shared his plans to head north on Twitter.
I'm moving to Scotland!

In the usual fashion, he was inundated with welcoming messages such as "Come on up then. We’d love to have you." from @Skinnycortado, and even an offer to get involved with Independence Live's new radio project.
However, the biggest name to welcome the DJ and fashion designer, who currently resides in London, must have been the First Minister herself.
You’ll be very welcome @BoyGeorge 😀 🏴 https://t.co/ScFF1ezfHs

And so he will be, if he makes the move.
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!
