Scots ‘left in dark over Brexit’

The Scottish Government was left in the dark over new Brexit plans this week, cabinet secretary Mike Russell has said.

Mr Russell said there had been “no correspondence” between the UK and Scottish governments on the new proposals. He added: “Whatever is taking place in 10 Downing Street, it is so outside the norms for the Prime Minister, or indeed for any civilised government, that we do wonder what will come next.

“We don’t know where the Prime Minister is goingbut the damage it is doing is immense.”
