Now Scotland on Sunday backs the Liberal Democrats

Following the Guardian and the Observer, Scotland on Sunday has come out in support of the Liberal Democrats too.

In an editorial, the paper says:

So, in the hope that new faces can bring about new politics, and that the economic crisis can be tackled with maturity and responsibility, energy and vision, let's get the Lib Dems as many seats as we can.

And it also gives the SNP a well-deserved hoofing:

"The idea that we send a bunch of Scottish MPs to Westminster purely to turn the screw, so that we do better at the expense of other parts of the UK, smacks of the churlish small-mindedness we must avoid. There is a very strong argument, given the two bailed-out Scottish banks, that we should play a full part in the recovery, not gratuitously exploit the situation.
