An MSP has hit back at Gordon Brown’s post-referendum comments.
Mr Brown made a speech in Fife earlier today in which he said he would ensure that promises made by the UK’s political leaders were kept.
But David Torrance MSP, who represents Kirkcaldy, said: “From the promises he was making, you could easily forget that Gordon Brown is just a backbench politician.
“Better Together told the Scottish electorate that a motion would be presented to parliament on Friday the 19th September on giving more powers to Scotland- a promise which has already been broken.
“And we know David Cameron hasn’t agreed to a second reading on the issue in Westminster before Easter, as also promised by Mr Brown.
“The reality for Scotland is that our timetable for more devolution is now defined by Westminster, and not ourselves. Gordon Brown’s reputation is in tartan tatters.”
