We thought February might be a quiet month politically - how wrong we were!

We start the extraordinary month's round up at the Time for Scotland torchlit march and rally to mark the anniversary of the Brexit debacle, we mull over options for plebiscite referenda, then mid month, the bombshell announcement that Nicola Sturgeon is resigning as FM and leader of the SNP.  

Then, following the big announcement we more or less return to normal day job politics, while the SNP leadership contest plays out against a backdrop of Uk media feeding frenzy and interference.
