deecie Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I doff my hat to the Telegraph for this: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/02/10/cambridge-university-student-relative-nicola-sturgeon-filmed/ Fantastically creative angle for this story. #bettertogether Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toepoke Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 "She has no recollection of ever meeting him.

Rossy Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 The Scotsman led with the same angle, as did The Herald.

thewelk Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) The link to Sturgeon is ridiculous and the journos know it. But the point is that it sows seeds.
