Nicola Sturgeon doesn't need to apologise for the SNP's General Election results and mudslinging from within the party is unhelpful, an ousted MP has told LBC. Hannah Bardell lost her Livingston seat to Labour's Gregor Poynton having represented constituents there since 2015.She was one of dozens who were defeated as the party's numbers at Westminster plunged from 48 to just 9.
"I just don't think that kind of stuff is particularly helpful and I think what our members want to see is us pulling together and looking at the areas of agreement which is most definitely on independence and how we forge forward with that."We've had a tough time as a party and I don't think that, sort of the, bloodletting and the mudslinging that it is happening - and it'll be happening in all different quarters - is necessarily the most helpful thing.
