London, The Gulf Observer: Liz Truss has suggested she would “ignore” Nicola Sturgeon if she were to become the next leader of the Conservative Party.

Speaking at the latest Tory leadership hustings in Exeter, the foreign secretary called Scotland’s first minister an “attention seeker” and responded “no, no, no” when asked about the prospect of another independence referendum if she were to become PM.

“I really believe we are a family, and we’re better together,” she said.

“I think the best thing to do with Nicola Sturgeon is ignore her. She’s an attention seeker, that’s what she is.”
