SNP To Target Liberal Democrat Voters

Alex Salmond is to target Liberal Democrat voters who are upset by the course the party has taken. By getting into bed with the English Tory party. He said: "Many former Lib Dem voters across Scotland supported us for the first time in May, and many more did so in Inverclyde, because they are far more in tune with the policies and aspirations of the Scottish National Party than with a Lib Dem leadership in Scotland that is increasingly indistinguishable from the Tories.
"There is a rich and radical Scottish liberal tradition, whose supporters no longer recognise their party, and do not understand why the leadership in Scotland takes the side of the Tories on every single issue.
"Former Lib Dem supporters are finding a very welcome home in the SNP, and we hope they will be joined by many more in our work to build a fairer, more successful Scotland."
