The feud between Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and her predecessor Alex Salmond has seen them likened to the warring families in Shakespeare’s Romeo And Juliet.
Former Liberal Democrat leader Sir Menzies Campbell spoke about the “rather squalid” exchanges between the current SNP leader and Mr Salmond – who has now set up his own rival political party.
Sir Menzies said: “This business, it is a bit like Romeo And Juliet, if you remember the Montagues and the Capulets. Well we’ve got the Salmondettes and the Sturgeonistas.”
