Nicola Sturgeon has attacked Liz Truss for failing to telephone her since she became Prime Minister, arguing the snub was “absurd” and “unprecedented”.
The First Minister questioned whether the “unprecedented” lack of a phone call since the Truss premiership started on Sept 6 was down to “arrogance, lack of respect or insecurity”.
......
In an interview with the BBC, Ms Sturgeon said that she had had no contact with Ms Truss other than “an exchange or two” at events following the death of the Queen.
“I don’t know whether that is arrogance, lack of respect or insecurity or whatever it is. It’s not the right way to do government in a grown-up way,” she said.
“So I hope we will see a change. I’ll do my best to work with Liz Truss as constructively as possible or whoever comes after because we can’t take anything for granted in UK politics these days.”
Ms Sturgeon said Mark Drakeford, her Welsh counterpart, had also had no contact from the Prime Minister.
