Nicola Sturgeon has finally admitted that she was ‘part of the problem’ regarding transgender issues, which was one of the reasons she stepped down as First Minister.
The former Scottish leader said she had received more abuse for her views on trans rights than any other topic, as she condemned ‘despicable’ culture wars.
She suggested that the controversies surrounding her, especially the outrage over sending male rapist Adam Graham, who now calls himself Isla Bryson to a female prison, contributed to her resignation as First Minister.
Explaining her decision to resign, the 53-year-old told the Charleston literary festival in Sussex: ‘I think in politics you reach a point where you know in yourself that you don’t have as much to give anymore.
‘I also thought that politics in Scotland, like politics everywhere right now, is pretty polarised’, she said, adding that the country also has the divisive “independence issue” in the mix.
‘Everyone in Scotland has an opinion about me’
Nicola Sturgeon said:’It felt as if every issue people were coming at that issue in terms of how they thought about me – that felt true on the trans issue, it felt true on a number of issues – so I thought, well, if I take myself out of that maybe the politics, the discourse and the debate in Scotland will be a bit more healthy.
‘It hasn’t quite worked out that way, but yes that is why I decided to stand down’.
Ms Sturgeon said she had ‘got to the point where I thought I was part of that problem’ because there is no one in Scotland who ‘doesn’t have an opinion about me whether good or bad – and I’m not sure many people are indifferent’.

Nicola Sturgeon in one breathe blames herself for being ‘part of the problems on trans issues’ and in another breathe doubled down on her view that transgender women are women.
She said in the on-stage interview with ‘trans’ novelist and activist Juno Dawson that ‘people should be able to live how they want to be’.
Ms. Sturgeon warned ‘it seems like everyone in society is raining down on trans people’ and despite forming 0.5 per cent of the population, they were used as ‘a battering ram’ and that ‘gay people and other marginalised groups were becoming collateral damage’.
‘I’ve had more abuse hurled at me over the issue of trans rights than probably any other issue I’ve discussed, including Scottish independence probably, so it has been really, really difficult,” she added.
No wonder the Bible says,
1 Timothy 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron
Leaders or liars?
Government officials have been on the fence about gender conversations, with some abandoning the ‘trans women are women’ phrase and others confessing to supporting the ‘trans’ ideology for political gains.
The Secretary of State for Education, Gillian Keegan said she will no longer use the phrase ‘trans women are women’, adding that she had ‘evolved’ and ‘learnt a huge amount more about this complex and challenging subject’.
Meanwhile, Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss said that she had described herself as an ‘LGBT’ ally in 2021, however, she had only done so to vocally oppose gender self-identity and keep ‘LGBT’ supporters ‘on her side.
Further, Wes Streeting, the shadow health secretary in an interview with the Sun said, he was wrong to say all ‘trans’ women are women.
The question remains: how many more will come forward with their true feelings about ‘trans’ ideologies? How many more will accept the reality that humans are created male and female by God?
The Bible says,
Mark 10:06 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
