MORE than half of Scots trust Nicola Sturgeon to fight for Scotland's best interests compared to less than a quarter who think David Cameron would do the same, a poll says.
The Panelbase study for the SNP found 54% of people believe Ms Sturgeon -who is almost certain to succeed Alex Salmond as First Minister next month -would stand up for the country's interests compared to 24% for the PM.
Scottish Labour leader Johann Lamont was given a net rating of -5 by the research while Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson had a net score of -20 and Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie scored -28.
