Nicola Sturgeon unveils bold vision for Scots economy
Nicola Sturgeon set out 'bold' plans to make Scotland a technological global powerhouse yesterday as she seeks to refresh her SNP government after a decade in power.
The First Minister signalled a shift in emphasis away from the traditional reliance on oil and gas towards high-tech industries which will “shape the future” of the global economy, during a keynote speech in her native Ayrshire yesterday.
The speech placed the economy in the political centre ground as the SNP leader prepares to unveil her programme for government next week when MSPs return to Holyrood from their summer recess.
