We want to tell the stories of how the cost of living crisis is impacting people in Scotland. Are you struggling to choose between heating and eating? Blackford told Sky News the impact of increasing poverty was “heartbreaking”. He added: “We know that people are having to make choices in terms of turning heating off. We know that people are having to think about what they can eat, whether they can put food on the table. It is part of the work of government. If so, we want to go beyond the statistics and tell your story. He also mimicked the Treasury, saying “calm down” in a mock-Scouse accent – which reminded viewers of comedian Harry Enfield’s sketch. “The Prime Minister is right. I hope Mr Gove is ok." “It’s the fact that there was nothing in the Queen's Speech that recognised that there has to be a sense of urgency. He tweeted: "I’ve watched our interview back a few times now. The Tory minister went on to insist that claims of a split between the Chancellor and the Prime Minister over the need for more financial support were “overinflated”. Under fire for failing to use the Queen’s Speech to announce fresh help, Johnson suggested he and Rishi Sunak would announce more “in the days to come”.
