SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon has
accused Whitehall of "dirty tricks" after a report emerged claiming she
told a French diplomat she would prefer David Cameron in No 10 over Ed
Miliband.
The Daily Telegraph published a civil service memo claiming Scotland's first minister privately said Labour's leader was not "PM material".Ms Sturgeon said in a tweet the story was "categorically, 100% untrue".
She called for an "urgent inquiry" into the circumstances of the leak.
French officials said she did not express a preference for PM.
But Labour called the report "damning" and said that even if it was not true the "SNP are happy to see another Tory government".
