Scotland’s former first minister Nicola Sturgeon has described the day she was arrested as “horrific” and “the worst day of her life.”
In an exclusive interview with ITV News, ahead of the release of her memoir, Frankly, Sturgeon talks about the day of her arrest, telling Julie Etchingham, "I think a part of me just closed down."
In a wide-ranging and frank discussion, the former first minister also expressed regret in her handling of transgender legislation during her time in office, admitting she should have “paused” the legislation when the debate became polarised.
She writes in her book, “I have never considered sexuality, my own included, to be binary,” adding that she was “enjoying being her own person for a while”.
