If we can’t take at face value what the Prime Minister says to the House of Commons without him going back there to change what he said in the House of Commons, I think we’re in a pretty poor position.

The Prime Minister is very welcome in Scotland and I’ll be interested to hear what he’s got to say.
I’ve got a track record throughout my political life of working to make sure as many powers as possible are exercised here in Scotland.
Make no mistake – if we had lost the election this year, if we were out of power – then the independence cause would have been set back decades.
So Scotland’s a welcoming country. We want to make sure that when people come to Scotland, we can support them and that we can support them well.
