UK Covid-19 Inquiry Reveals Critical Messages from Scottish Leaders

Sturgeon and Yousaf criticized UK Government and Scottish Police Federation respectively, according to WhatsApp messages revealed at the inquiry.

WhatsApp messages revealed at the UK Covid-19 Inquiry show former Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon branding Boris Johnson a 'f****** clown' during his announcement of a second national lockdown for England.
Sturgeon's then Chief of Staff Liz Lloyd, who provided the messages, testified that Sturgeon criticized Johnson's 'utter incompetence' and the UK Government's poor communication.
Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf, in another set of messages, branded the Scottish Police Federation a 'disgrace' for their handling of pandemic regulations.
Yousaf admitted to using personal phones alongside government devices for official business during the pandemic, sparking an externally-led review into the Scottish government's use of mobile messaging apps and non-corporate technology.
Both Sturgeon and Yousaf are scheduled to give evidence to the inquiry in the coming days.
