Rishi Sunak issued a General Election warning to Scottish voters as he declared that Sir Keir Starmer cannot be trusted to deny the SNP a second independence referendum.
Prime Minister issues devastating General Election warning to Scots voters Rishi Sunak last night issued a General Election warning to Scottish voters as he declared that Sir Keir Starmer cannot be trusted to deny the SNP a second independence referendum.
But Mr Sunak last night said: ‘He doesn’t have any convictions. I don’t think people know what he thinks or believes. He has abandoned pretty much every single promise and pledge he made when he ran to be Labour leader.‘So, I don’t know why people wouldn’t think, “Well, why would he not just do exactly the same thing if he ever became Prime Minister?”’
The Nationalists, however, are on far shakier ground as pollsters suggest they could return just 16 of their current 43 MPs. ‘That’s what I believe, that’s what Douglas Ross and the Conservatives believe. I don’t think you will get that same conviction on our Union from any other party.’ In November, The Mail on Sunday told how potential SNP candidates were being secretly screened to see if they would back a Labour Budget, even if Sir Keir refused to agree to a key Nationalist demand to scrap a cap on family benefits.
