On April 21st, Scottish labor leader Anna Tsarwar is going hard at reform UK, calling the politicians unedifying folks he hopes get absolutely. Hammered at next month's polls on May 7th, this comes amid a heated feud where Tsarwar stands firm on accusations that a reform candidate labeled his boss useless and a top counselor a weasel. The beef kicked off last week in a TV debate when Lord offered claims Tsarwar offered to team up against the SNP. Tsarwar denies it flat out, and reforms Graham Simpson shot back, saying Tsarwar approached him three times to collaborate. Tsarwar laid into reform during a Glasgow college visit, saying they just divide people and fight like ferrets in a sack. He argues votes for them only prop up the SNP, and Scotland needs to reject their poison to make real change. Simpson called the whole thing daft and disappointing, wishing Tsarwar would apologize instead of doubling down. He hinted they could talk if Tsarwar chills out and aligns on beating the SNP.
With the election heating up, this back and forth shows how alliances and old grudges are shaking up Scotland's political scene, keeping everyone on, edge.
