Tory jokes SNP are 'providing drama now that Happy Valley has ended' with savage infighting

The SNP have “decided to provide the country with compelling drama now that Happy Valley has ended”, Scotland minister John Lamont has joked.

His comment came as Labour shadow Scotland secretary Ian Murray said: “Scots are being hit very hard by the cost of living crisis which is made worse by the state of Scottish public services.

“The NHS is on its knees while the failing Health Secretary is focusing on other things and Scottish local government is having its funding decimated again by the finance secretary seemingly intent on offending every minority group in Scotland.

“So does the minister agree with me that amid such a serious crisis in Scotland, it’s frankly absurd that failed Scottish government ministers are fighting amongst themselves for the top job when too many Scots are worrying about how they pay their bills?”

Mr Lamont replied: “It does seem that the SNP have decided to provide the country with compelling drama now that Happy Valley has ended, but there is a very serious point here.

“Whilst the SNP indulge in the most savage infighting since Labour’s Blair-Brown civil war, Scotland is crying out for attention on things that really matter, the economy, the health service and the education system.”
