The former leader of the SNP will likely have been bristling at yesterday's comments by Boris Johnson.

His riposte to the woman who once dubbed him a “f****** clown” came at a question-and-answer session in Edinburgh.

Asked about his relationship with the former First Minister, former PM Johnson bragged: “I won’t hear a word against her.

“Thanks to Nicola, I think the Union is safe for a long time.

“The dogs barked. The caravan moved on.”

During lockdown, Ms Sturgeon became infamous during the pandemic for her doom-laden daily sermons.

It was Mr Johnson who famously led the UK through the Covid-19 pandemic, helping to secure vaccines for the country way ahead of many other nations.
