Nicola Sturgeon was told off for criticising Brexit at the official Covid inquiry today.
When asked by chief counsel to the inquiry Hugo Keith whether she felt the diversion of resources, money and time away from pandemic planning to deal with preparations for a no-deal Brexit was “a false economy”, the former Scottish first minister said: “I think every aspect of Brexit has been a false economy.”
Keith then interjected: “That is a witness box, not a soapbox.”
