Scotland reacts to the resignation of Nicola Sturgeon

Sturgeon resigned at a surprise press conference in Bute House

Today’s news really came out of the blue and people here in Glasgow Southside are still taking it in.

Of course, Nicola Sturgeon’s constituency is vast – it takes in a lot of areas including Govanhill, Pollokshields, Ibrox and Shawlands.

It’s got a lot of deprived pockets, as well as some very expensive parts. It’s also one of the most diverse constituencies in Scotland.

To give you a snapshot – it’s home to shipyards, students and it’s also where there have high-profile protests over the treatment of refugees.
