Speaking ahead of Kemi Badenoch’s visit to Glasgow, Scottish Liberal Democrat economy spokesperson Willie Rennie said:

“The Conservatives are lurching from one out of touch extreme solution to the next.

“Russell Findlay says 14-year-olds should quit school and get a job, and Kemi Badenoch says mum’s maternity pay is excessive. At this rate, the Tories will have toddlers on zero-hours contracts!

“Russell should tell the public whether he agrees that maternity pay is too high and Kemi should do the same about whether she thinks young people should be able to leave school after just three years of high school."
