LONDON (AP) – According to the associated press, Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has announced her intention to resign. Sturgeon, who has led the country’s devolved government and the Scottish National Party for eight years told a news conference Wednesday at her official residence, Bute House in Edinburgh, that part of serving in politics is knowing when it is time to make way for someone else. Sturgeon says she wrestled with the decision, but that the pressure of the job was relentless and that she is a human being as well as a politician.
