Devastating focus on separatism means public services have been run down, Gove tells Tory activists in Aberdeen
Michael Gove has accused the Scottish National party government of running down Scotland because of its “devastating” obsession with independence, as he tried to rally Tory activists in Aberdeen.
Gove, an Aberdonian who is now the most prominent Scot in the UK government, said Scotland’s institutions had been neglected by the SNP because it had focused so heavily on the constitution at the expense of public services.
