Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak have struggled to explain how they would help Scots who face terrifying energy bills this winter.
The two MPs are bidding to replace Boris Johnson as the next prime minister but had little new to say to an audience of 650 Conservative Party members at an event in Perth on Tuesday evening.
They both ruled out allowing Nicola Sturgeon to hold a second independence referendum next year and claimed they would continue to support Brexit.
