Senior SNP members have urged MPs to back the Brexit deal.

Alex Neil and Jim Sillars said that the Prime Minister’s deal is the only thing that ensures the UK will leave the EU.

In a joint letter, they claimed they were among many SNP Leave supporters whose views have not been represented by the party.

It’s clear that even members of Sturgeon’s own party are tired of her game-playing on Brexit. We in Scotland deserve better than this fractious and erratic SNP government.
