SCOTLAND wasn't mentioned once by either Rishi Sunak or Keir Starmer during their first televised debate.

SCOTLAND wasn't mentioned once by either Rishi Sunak or Keir Starmer during their first televised debate.However, while they clashed over issues including tax, the NHS, immigration and the cost of living in a debate that at times seemed bad-tempered, neither leader seemed to deem voters in Scotland worthy of a mention.

However, during a series of quickfire questions at the end of the interview Flynn was asked by presenter Anushka Asthana who he thought won the debate. Both Sunak and Starmer were reprimanded by debate host Julie Etchingham during the debate for talking over each other following opening skirmishes over the state of the public finances.

He said: “If I am forced to choose between securing our borders and our country’s security, or a foreign court, I’m going to choose our country’s security every single time.”We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
