FM keeping out of row

Nicola Sturgeon will not intervene in the row over the Irn-Bru recipe, her spokesman said.

The makers of the celebrated refreshment are slashing its sugar content this month.

That decision led to a backlash with some fans vowing to stockpile the original cans.

The spokesman added he is “not aware of the First Minister being an aficionado of Irn-Bru”.
