Scottish Conservatives are unconstructive and on-the-way out

Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP

Commenting on Russell Findlay's letter to the First Minister, Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP said:

"At the First Minister's summit, I intend to make clear to him that the best way to win back those disaffected by politics is to govern well and deliver on the things that people actually care about like fast access to local healthcare. For too many people it feels like nothing works any more and the SNP need to face up to their part in that.

"It's true that independence has divided our country for too long but, through careful negotiations, my party got all spending on breaking up the UK removed from the recent budget. Meanwhile Russell Findlay’s Conservatives get nothing done and have become a Trumpesque mess.

"It's that kind of unconstructive, anti-everything behaviour which has seen him lose one MSP already to us, because people who voted for Ruth Davidson’s Conservatives no longer recognise them and they are joining the Liberal Democrats instead.”
