Green dilemma over the Nats’ yellow bus

Hjhjhjjh

-

THE launch of a diesel-guzzling campaign bus brought Nicola Sturgeon’s green credential­s under scrutiny yesterday.

The First Minister was also mocked for arriving at the Dundee launch in an official limo despite claiming her focus was the cost-of-living crisis. Miss Sturgeon described the 2016 Volvo bus – bearing the same picture of her previously used on a campaign helicopter – as ‘the most environmen­tally friendly form of bus like that you can get right now’.

Miss Sturgeon added: ‘I think it’s important to get into every corner and every community as far as you possibly can, and having a campaign bus like this allows us to do that.’

Tory MSP Jamie Halcro Johnson tweeted: ‘Nicola Sturgeon launches her “cost of living tour” having appeared to have been driven to the SNP bus in her chauffeur-driven taxpayerfu­nded government limo.’
