We'll negotiate with anybody, we'll help anybody into power, but you don't need to be the last word and psephologist to know what the SNP will demand in exchange for that support.
Unlike the Labour Party and the Tories, the SNP will never work with Reform or do any deals with them.
The SNP is clear that the very real threat of a Nigel Farage Reform UK government makes it all the more important that Scotland has a choice over our future with an independence referendum.
Andy Burnham must urgently set out how he can justify this at a time of increased spending on defence - or better yet, scrap this cut all together.
