SNP claims that a Labour government would impose public spending cuts on Scotland are 'ludicrous', Anas Sarwar has said.
The Scottish Labour leader said such comments are a"symbol of their desperation" and accused the SNP of being"out of tune and out of step" with public opinion in Scotland.
On Monday Swinney said he is deeply concerned that Labour and the Tories are"debating our economic future in a parallel universe - by refusing to accept the reality of their decisions." Sarwar said:"Having an immigration system that is fit for purpose, that is linked to our skills system - because there's a complete disconnect in our skills system - means that we can look at UK net migration which in my view is too high.
