SNP conference exposes a party tired, out of touch and bereft of ideas

Responding to today's SNP independence conference, Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Alex Cole-Hamilton said:

"The SNP have put on an entire conference dedicated to demonstrating how tired, out of touch and bereft of ideas they are.

"Nobody believes Humza Yousaf's plan is going to lead to the break-up of the UK. It's a desperate ploy to appease a dwindling band of single-minded nationalist activists.

"Scottish Liberal Democrats will continue to focus on the real priorities of the people of Scotland: the cost-of-living crisis, long waiting lists for NHS treatment and the state of public services."
