She explained why the SNP had opted to leave the Chamber during Prime Minister’s Questions.
Mr Blackford had demanded an immediate vote on a private session of parliament - which would have suspended the days business so that MPs could continue the debate on post-Brexit devolution that was cut to just 15 minutes on Tuesday night.
The MP for Livingston finished her video stating “This cannot continue. Scotland cannot be continued to be disrespected by Westminster.”
