'The leader of the Scottish National party, Nicola Sturgeon, has emphatically denied that she told a senior French diplomat she would rather see David Cameron win the election because Ed Miliband was too weak to be prime minister.

In a terse, angry tweet, Scotland’s first minister said it was “categorically, 100%, untrue” that she made the dramatic disclosure when she met the French ambassador to the UK, Sylvie Bermann, at Sturgeon’s offices in Holyrood in late February.'

Of Course she would say that Kizzy
"its secret"

joeysteele 04-04-2015 08:09 AM

She has said it is lies and I would belivieve all she says far more than I ever word this mess of a papers word.

It may have had some merit were this paper not hammmering Labour and Ed Miliband near continuously..

I say it is lies from them too, in fact I don't get when it comes to the opposition parties why anyone seriously believes a word this paper says as to them.

Utter and total tripe on a large scale this is.
This is about the last thing anyone, even SNP members and supporters,wouold expect to hear from Nicola Sturgeon as in any context.
Rubbish, fictional rubbish.

Very unfortunately it is, along with others however it reports from an itrrational biased viewpoint that because it is so biased ,makes its 'possible' arguments void,irrelevant and not worth the paper the are printed on or in,in my opinion.

Crimson Dynamo 04-04-2015 09:29 AM

If the paper will not print the memo then it did not happen

Vicky. 04-04-2015 10:30 AM

Erm, this is quite obvious to me. She wants scotland independant, what prompted the referendum this time? Tories being in...

I wish I had a pound for every one in my life who has told me something then subsequently brass-faced denied it. I had no memo or tape or video as proof, but the fork-tongued bastards definitely said as much.

Kizzy 04-04-2015 10:39 AM

The torygrapy and the times getting desperate..

Why would the French diplomat lie for her, and why are the transcripts not available if she did?

Far from 'lying for her', I thought the 'French Diplomat' was the one insisting that she had said it?

arista 04-04-2015 11:36 AM

Ed Miliband has described an allegation that Nicola Sturgeon, the Scottish National party leader, told a senior French diplomat she would rather see David Cameron win the general election as “damning”.

Well Edmund if this is proven to be false its going to come back and hit you full on the face

arista 04-04-2015 12:25 PM

Yes LT
Labour are using it.


No care for the update


Shows Joey

It is clear what is going on and I don't approve one bit.

It would suit the Conservative press to gave this confusion as they are then given a 2 edged sword, if she had said it, they could argue for their man,David Cameron,which would be almost seen,althugh it wouldn't be,a bit of a boost for him.

If she says it is wrong, and it couldn't be proven either way, then they could use that to expand even more on a fictitious load of nonsense as to what a Labour led govt; supported by the SNP could likely do.

It is a divide and conquor moment in the now very sick way this paper is conducting itself in thsi election campign.
The decent and right thing to have done in any instance, should have been for this paper to 'ask' Nicolal Sturgeon herself 'if' the quote was right,before printing it.

She has denied ever saying it and I would take that as the only gospel on this one, as Nicola Sturgeon ever thinking this PM should be PM,( after his farcical peformance in the referendum debate and issues following),is for me something from cloud cuckoo land.
Of course this possibly will suit Labour too since if Nicola Sturgeon could be seen as having any liking for the Conservatives,then labour could win votes back from the SNP possibly.

The paper has put it out there, right or wrong, but it stinks to high heaven as to how they are going on,so deperate are they to help a loser,who will likely lose again in May as to securing an overall majority,namely David Cameron.

Kizzy 04-04-2015 12:53 PM

It's all a bit of a perfect storm, it rocks Labours faith in the SNP as potential partners, it creates confusion for the Scots in their national party and it strengthens the conservatives position...
Well done Murdock you may well have pulled it off.

JoshBB 04-04-2015 01:07 PM

She and the french ambassador have both said that she never said that. Based off of what she said, you know that it is not something she would say. Only recently she said "If Labour chooses not to work with us then they are missing out on a chance to lock the tories out".

Kizzy 04-04-2015 01:21 PM

I know, but then again the lib dems and the tories vowed never to work together, and here we are...
I would like her to release a press statement :worry: c'mon nikki!

:clap1: This would be the most logical action - a press statement.

But the newspaper should also be made to produce their evidence for their allegation.

Kizzy 04-04-2015 02:15 PM

'The Scottish first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, has called for an urgent investigation over a leaked government memo that alleges she would like to see the Conservatives win the general election.

The SNP leader called on the cabinet secretary, Sir Jeremy Heywood, to find out how the Daily Telegraph obtained the Foreign Office memo in which, the paper claims, Sturgeon told the French ambassador in February that she hoped for a Tory win.

Sturgeon said the memo was without foundation. Speaking at an anti-Trident demonstration in Glasgow, she added: “The bigger question, and one I am raising today with the head of the civil service, Sir Jeremy Heywood, is who wrote this memo, as the Foreign Office are now appearing to deny all knowledge of it.'

Dave is very quiet, he's behind this as those words in this 'leak' sound eerily similar to things he's said of late.

She wants the Scottish voters to think she will defo form a coalition with Labour to keep the Tories out, but I think she secretly loathes labour and hates Ed Miliband .

Be interesting to see who she will actually form a coalition with.

I would literally bet everything I own that the SNP would never support a Tory government. If you genuinely believe they would, then I can only assume you don't fully grasp the depth of how hated the Tories are North of the border. The SNP supporting the Tories would literally destroy the party permanently.

Neh. Scots these days - and especially SNP supporters - have learned to be skeptical of the media and political rhetoric, posturing and games. They could print that she's a baby murdering Satan worshipper complete with pictures and it would be met with a resoundingly sarcastic "Aye, awrite."

Very much doubt this will even rattle the polling numbers.
