DOUGLAS Ross has written to Nicola Sturgeon demanding she reveals whether she deleted WhatsApp messages, accusing her of a “lack of candour”.
First Minister Humza Yousaf has previously said the Government “had a social media messaging policy that required us to routinely delete WhatsApp messages”.
Nicola Sturgeon cannot persist with her pitiful stonewalling now that her bogus ‘confidentiality’ excuse has been exposed. “I would request that you address these questions publicly or, under rule 13.1.1 of the Scottish Parliament's standing orders, make a personal statement to parliament as soon as possible.“If this is true, you should come clean on this WhatsApp issue immediately.”
“She has recently submitted her third written statement to the UK inquiry - running to around 200 pages - and expects to give oral evidence again next year when she will answer all questions put to her.”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. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
