- Even though the SNP mocked the Tories for their unelected leaders in number 10 and demanded an election, John Swinney doesn't believe that would be the right thing to do for Scotland right now.
Mr Swiney was asked: 'Now that you've been crowned the new leader of the SNP and likely to be the first Minister, don't you think an election is a democratic imperative to put that into context, that could put down a motion and ask for one and Labour would back you. Isn't that a democratic thing to do?'
Mr Swinney replied: 'No. We operate in a fixed term parliament.'

Same old same old. If it wasn't so tragic to see what SNP has done to Scotland, It would be laughable to listen to how deluded Swinney and that lot are
One rule for them and a completely different one for the Westminster parliament. More double standards by the SNP.
And Scotland has been well and truly trashed by your party! It’s always someone else’s fault blah blah where is the money sent for the councils???? Why am I paying more tax than the rest of UK??
SNP going round in circles, same failed old SNP leader again
Is he for real, what a load of claptrap.
Not for the people , we need a Election No Swinney we’re paying the price of the SNP
The people of Scotland are paying the price for the failures of this SNP government for the last 17 years
SNP talking about democracy ! ! Where does this deluded persona come from when any of them get a job ?
He appears to be totally out of touch with what really concerns Scots. Just Fall Guy2 that’s all.
He isn’t deluded.He’s lying.
Ah much like the countrys been wrecked by the SNP
It never fails to amaze me that people swallow this nonsense. When do the SNP take ownership for the money they've wasted?
Dead man walking.
Austerity. Hahahah! They just gave 16.9 million to a Private Enterprise to house the Stone of Destiny in Perth City Hall, that cost millions to refurbish, despite having a museum and art
gallery 400 metres away. What a bunch of claptrap. Resign!
Close Holyrood now!!!!
At the end of that interview did a nurse say it’s time for your medication.
What about mistakes made in Scotland, were they all the fault of Westminster.
Yesterday's man like we Alex just as vain and delusional 👍
does this mean he will be stripping all the Pakistani wallpaper off the walls and taking down the garish curtains in Bute House
More of the same pi5h
He thinks we are stupid. What a load of lies. They bang on about independence and that would cause true austerity but know one pushes him on that!
Same old guff from the SNP time for the people of Scotland to decide .Time for an election.
They all want to stay on the gravy train for as long as possible.
How the hell.
If that's the case, then get your leader in the House of Commons to stop telling Rishi to call one the SNP have had 3 leaders in the same time , and Scotland is in such z mess then if he feels that about Westminster then he should call a election,
Its an election the people want and we dont need you to tell us its undemocratic..we need a government who recognises the peoples democratic right and in situations of extreme circumstances an election must be called to see what the people really want and its not for you to dictate to us .,Capiche 😂😂😂
Bravo

Waffle waffle waffle same old claptrap
Its the Scottish Joe Biden.
