AN MP has invited Nicola Sturgeon to the Borders to explain her comments after she said she "detested" the Tories.
The First Minister made the jibe during a BBC interview on Sunday when discussing if she would rather have a Labour or Conservative government in Westminster. Sturgeon has since said she was talking about Tory values and policies rather than individuals or Tory voters – but added that she does not regret her choice of words.
Borders MP John Lamont has invited the First Minister to the region to “explain to local people why you detest many of us”.
