Willing to sell themselves to Labour and the Tories

Rhoda Grant MSP, Labour Party in the Highlands, welcomes the offer by Liberal Democrats to work with Anas Sarwar.

After the election on 7 May.

Regardless of who voters want, the Lib Dems do anything for power.

The party joined with Tories in Westminster in 2010 and delivered austerity.  Now they will join with Labour.

Which makes them unique as the only party in British political history willing to sell themselves to Labour or Tory in Westminster and Holyrood.

Neither Shetland, nor Orkney, deserve this.

It can only be avoided by voting for Hannah Mary Goodlad and Robert Leslie, respectively.
