SNP ‘setting election campaign alight’ - Salmond
Mr Salmond said the SNP has set the General Election campaign alight with its post-referendum surge, despite independence being rejected in last year’s vote.
However, the former SNP leader speaking after a hustings event in Aberdeen organised by Oil & Gas UK, said he is taking nothing for granted.

“Despite the fact that we are very pleased with the way things are going, there is not a shred of complacency.
“We know we’ve got two weeks to work really hard to maximise that positivity we’re getting in the communities and on the doorstep, and turn it into a real result for Scotland and that’s what we intend to do.”
