Responding to Russell Findlay's speech today, Willie Rennie MSP said:

"It's absolutely bizarre for Russell Findlay to deliver a speech about a lack of trust in politicians without acknowledging the central role that his own party has played in degrading politics.

"In Scotland, the Conservatives have wallowed in the mud, squabbling with the nationalists and ignoring the day to day pressures that ordinary Scots have been facing.

"Across the UK, Boris Johnson oversaw scandal after scandal and Liz Truss sent mortgage rates soaring while Conservative politicians like Russell Findlay cheered her on.

"Scottish Liberal Democrats want to give Scotland a clean break from two parties who have let our country down by focusing on the issues that really matter like tackling long waits for healthcare."
