Commenting on Nicola Sturgeon's pledge to cut energy bills by 5 percent in an independent Scotland, Scottish Liberal Democrat energy spokesperson Liam McArthur MSP said:
"This is another half-story from the SNP. In public Nicola Sturgeon Liam McArthursays she would cut energy bills in an independent Scotland. In private SNP Ministers admit that independence would mean we would no longer be able to share renewables investment across the entire UK.
"The SNP will say and do anything to achieve independence. This latest wheeze only proves that behind each grand independence announcement stand unfinished sums and dangerous assertions."
