Salmond 'losing it' over recession

Nov 19 2009

First Minister Alex Salmond has been accused by Labour of having retreated into a "Brigadoon bunker" by refusing to admit the depth of the recession in Scotland.

The charge was made by Labour leader Iain Gray.

He told MSPs: "The business community are saying Alex Salmond is losing it. The trade unions are saying Alex Salmond is losing it. Economists are saying he is losing it."
