Scot Lib Dems respond to Swinney independence comments

Responding to John Swinney’s comments indicating that he intends to use a majority of pro-indy MSPs to push for another independence referendum, Scottish Liberal Democrat MSP Willie Rennie said:

“Here it is straight from the horse’s mouth. John Swinney puts independence above action now on your job, your GP appointment or your children’s education. Any vote for him will be taken as a vote to waste more time arguing over independence.

“Scottish Liberal Democrats are clear that the purpose of the Scottish Parliament should be to deliver swift local access to healthcare, provide more support for teachers and pupils in classrooms and get the economy growing again. More of the same old arguments won’t move this country forward.”
