Alex Salmond alongside Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross candidate Steve Chisholm aim win the party’s first seat at an election win.
Speaking about the former First Minister, Ms Hansler says ‘she doesn’t care – she simply doesn’t care. They have got blood on their hands’.
Fergus Ewing asked her: ‘surely, many people are right to say the A9 just wasn’t the top priority for the Scottish Government’.
Deputy First Minister Kate Forbes says she is “delighted that the energy minister has committed to adapting the regulations’.
The timing is uncomfortable for the SNP as it highlights one of its biggest broken promises in the middle of the general election campaign.

She says ‘the best way to deliver the urgent change Scotland needs is to join with John Swinney’.
Now Ms Forbes is set for her own announcement this afternoon about whether she will run for the top job.
