She talked about... *Vogue*. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/15/40/1540bec0-7154-4feb-b8e1-97f579155b08/content/images/2022/08/wwww-062.jpg) ###### Nicola Sturgeon st COP26\. | [COP26](https://www.flickr.com/photos/186938113@N07/51649248903/?ref=europeans.today) Responding to a Q&A with the broadcaster Iain Dale at the *[Edinburgh Fringe](#ref)*, Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said that shortly after being interviewed by *Vogue* last year, she met Liz Truss at the *COP26* climate summit in Glasgow. Truss, she said, was keen to find out how she too could appear in the fashion magazine. *“We were at the Kelvingrove Museum. Her and I were there early and waiting for the leaders to arrive – Biden, Merkel etc. We were there quite a bit early, so we were talking to each other. I remember this quite well actually.* *“I had just been [interviewed by Vogue](#ref). So I’d just had a photoshoot, as you do. And that was the main thing she wanted to talk to me about. She wanted to know how she could get into Vogue – and [she calls me an attention-seeker](#ref).* ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/15/40/1540bec0-7154-4feb-b8e1-97f579155b08/content/images/2022/08/wwwww-005.jpg) ###### The Private Eye *“I said... Well, they came and asked me. And I didn’t really mean to do this, but I then said it hadn’t actually been my first time in Vogue. She looked a little bit as if she’d swallowed a wasp.* *“I’m sure she’ll be in Vogue before too long.* *“I remember it because there we were at the world’s biggest climate change conference in Glasgow, world leaders about to arrive.* ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/15/40/1540bec0-7154-4feb-b8e1-97f579155b08/content/images/2022/08/wwww-063.jpg) ###### Liz Truss st COP26\. | [COP26](https://www.flickr.com/photos/186938113@N07/51652578065/?ref=europeans.today) *“That was the main topic of conversation she was interested in pursuing. And once we’d exhausted that it kind of dried up.* *“I’m sure we’ll have many more conversations about many more substantive things.”* ![PMP Magazine](https://storage.ghost.io/c/15/40/1540bec0-7154-4feb-b8e1-97f579155b08/content/images/2021/09/end-flat-1.png "PMP Magazine") ### **GOING FURTHER:** - *[Iain Dale: All Talk with Nicola Sturgeon](https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/iain-dale-all-talk-with-nicola-sturgeon?ref=europeans.today) | Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society* - *[“I’m The Last Woman Standing”: Nicola Sturgeon On The Climate Crisis, The “Fragile Male Ego” And Life After Politics](https://www.vogue.co.uk/arts-and-lifestyle/article/nicola-sturgeon-interview?ref=europeans.today) | Vogue* - *[Liz Truss Brands Nicola Sturgeon An 'Attention Seeker' Who Should Be 'Ignored'](https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/liz-truss-nicola-sturgeon-attention-seeker%5Fuk%5F62e830e7e4b0d0ea9b79d195?ref=europeans.today) | Huffington Post* --- | [![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/15/40/1540bec0-7154-4feb-b8e1-97f579155b08/content/images/2022/08/feedback2-flat.png)](https://forms.gle/tRe7igVtMPaiAPtJ8?ref=europeans.today "Leave some feedback") | [![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/15/40/1540bec0-7154-4feb-b8e1-97f579155b08/content/images/2022/08/comment2-flat.png)](#comments "Leave a comment") | | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --- ### **— AUTHORS —** ▫ *PMP News reporting.* --- ##### Sources **Text:** This piece was first published in PMP Magazine on 10 August 2022. - **Cover:** Flickr/[UK Government](https://www.flickr.com/photos/192333790@N05/51618205474/?ref=europeans.today). - Liz Truss in India. | 22 October 2021\.
