Danny Alexander attacked by SNP
27 September 2011
Danny Alexander, the Lib Dem Chief Secretary to the Treasury, has been accused of hypocrisy for a speech he gave in Aviemore.
He claimed that projects like the Forth Crossing were taking transport funding away from the north of Scotland.
As a Highland MP, Mr Alexander is sensitive to his inability to secure any serious infra-structure development in the Highlands. The SNP have hit back at his charges, claiming that they have spent more on the A9 than the Labour-Lib Dem coalition did while in power in Holyrood.
Mr Alexander’s pronouncements are only highlighting how little he has done for Highland infrastructure.
