You left out an important part of Ruth's speech weedeek. Just to make it clearer what Ruth was trying to say:-
“Let me be clear: nobody, not me, not anyone, is expecting the SNP to give up on independence. That is what it believes in and it is a perfectly honourable position to take. What people do expect is that, right now, the SNP gives Scotland a break. Simply put, Scotland has had its fill.
“We need to focus on the challenges we face on education, on NHS funding, on the new tax and welfare powers – as well as the huge challenge of Brexit.
“Nobody will condemn the First Minister if she now decides to re-set her course. This is her opportunity to do so - and I urge her to take it immediately. She must take it off the table.”
