On vermin and politics, Der Spiegel interviews Nicola Sturgeon, the head of the Scottish government

DER SPIEGEL: Have you read the poem Mr. Johnson authorized as the editor of The Spectator, where the author referred to the Scots as a "verminous race" who should be exterminated?

Sturgeon: I've seen it, yes. I've also been reminded in the last couple of days of his comments that Scottish people couldn't become prime minister because of our political disability. Well, most Scottish people don't think he is capable of becoming prime minister either. So, the feeling is mutual.

It's once again fashionable to talk and write (poetry) about a verminous race. We will see where it will end this time.
