Jardine: Abject cowardice from Sunak at Scottish Tory Conference

Responding to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s speech earlier this morning at the Scottish Conservative Party conference, after which he attempted to stonewall several journalists, Liberal Democrat Scottish affairs spokesperson Christine Jardine MP said:  

“As someone who has worked as both a journalist and an adviser in Downing Street, it’s clear to me this attempt was a move of abject cowardice from Number 10.  

“In his speech, Sunak talked about the SNP’s dire record of failures, but he should have followed through and added his own party’s A-Z of chaos.  

“Both the Tories and the SNP have absolutely no clue of what’s good for Scotland. It’s time we were rid of this dreary and divisive politics because it’s holding us all back.”
