Mar 2021. The Salmond Sturgeon Saga Part 7

In eight hours of evidence from the first minister, a lot of ground has been covered by this committee. Nicola Sturgeon has given a long, detailed defence of her actions and those of her government. It boils down to this: she admits mistakes were made, but says people were trying to do the right thing in investigating Alex Salmond. But today is unlikely to put some of the big questions to bed. Ms Sturgeon still faces big questions over whether she broke the ministerial code. She has denied it – but an independent investigation is taking place. The committee is still to see messages which Mr Salmond believes show a plot against him.
