Free prescriptions for all, free personal care for all despite many easily having the ability to pay. They have a 19p tax band. What that does however is lower the standard of care as social services have to depend on central government and council tax for all funding. Mrs c is a carer and the pressure to get round so many cases per day is overwhelming. Education standards have been dropping for decades. They have only one priority and that is to get another referendum without having to explain the economic realities of such a move. It’s convenient to blame everything on Westminster. They enjoy power without responsibility relying on the Barnet formula to keep the cash flowing. They complain about lack of funding etc yet have tax raising powers but are scared to use them for fear of losing votes. The Labour Party really needs to get its act together and reclaim their heartlands here. When campaigning on the doorsteps for them I find for many the heart rules the head. The rhetoric and soundbites of the nationalists have more appeal that economic facts and figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how you've linked it back to bashing Labour again when they weren't even mentioned. Just tempering your eternal optimism with a dose of reality.

And the unionist side see voting tory as the only sure way of keeping Scotland as part of the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattiloy Posted October 30, 2021 Report Share Posted October 30, 2021 Recalling the chat on spiking ITT. Expect no less from the good folk at the invisible wind factory but still a tip of the cap to them for this. Hopefully other venues take a leaf out of their book. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s all about an anti Tory vote rather than a vote based on policy. I also hate the word ‘unionist’ to describe anyone who is against independence. That word has always been too closely associated with the Scottish Tories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
