Mr Drakeford had also spoken to Mr Johnson and Mrs May shortly after they each became Prime Minister .
Ms Sturgeon continued: " I wrote to her The Day she became Prime Minister .
" I'll meet with her, I'll speak to her, but let's just underline how absurd it is that a UK Prime Minister doesn't seem to want to work with - other than in Rhetoric - The devolved administrations in The rest of The UK. "
Ms Truss has previously described herself as a " a child of The Union" having spent some of her childhood living in Paisley.
But at a Conservative leadership hustings in August, she told party members: " I think The Best thing to do with Nicola Sturgeon is ignore her. She's an attention seeker, that's what she is. "

She Said that her party had been open to forming a Progressive Alliance with Labour at previous Westminster elections, but those offers had been rejected.
At The , Sir Keir told party members: " Scotland's success in The UK is met with gritted teeth, seen as a roadblock to independence, and so, they stand in The Way .
" We can't work with them. We won't work with them. No deal under any circumstances. "
