Willie Rennie and Nicola Sturgeon in funny photobomb

By | Thu 3rd March 2016 - 10:20 pm

So, you’re a political journalist trying to do your best to bring a flavour of First Minister’s Questions to your adoring public. And then two of the participants get in on the act.

Watch Colin Mackay try to keep Willie Rennie and Nicola Sturgeon under control.

Just a few minutes earlier, Willie and Nicola had had quite a testy exchange over the SNP’s modest tinkering with the Council Tax. It didn’t take them long to laugh and joke. Somehow I don’t think Dave and Jez would be quite so relaxed together.

And that cat manifesto Colin mentioned? It’s here.

    I hear Willie’s put the genie back in the bottle on fracking.

    Well done, Willie. Strong decisive leadership when it was needed.
