@KirstieMAllsopp @CarolineCoramUK Rural voters are highly unlikely to be small farmers. Define "great" in the context of estates. How many well run agricultural businesses have no strategy for IHT avoidance?
Usually governments are careful in their first few weeks of office not the ultra unionist Starmer lot. First they dumped on their Scottish MPs by refusing to remove the two child cap and now they've exposed their Scottish Governor General to ridicule by freezing pensioners.
@Effiedeans Our Polish physics teacher was a dab hand at delivering lectures in English but often reminded us of the influences on the subject from other nations which included French words, Latin, German... The language of science is international.
@PamGosalMSP The SNP could balance the budget by raising taxes on high earners. The opposition could suggest which benefits aimed at vulnerable groups should be cut, Westminster could respect the will of the Scottish people and start negotiating an end to the Treaty of Union
Apart from sorting out Labour's PPI scandal, forcing Labour into supporting a cease fire in Gaza and sorting out the mess of Edinburgh trams and Glasgow equal pay here's a few to be going on with.
@sophie46472077 Winston Churchill took a different view - he said โOf all the small nations of this earth, perhaps only the ancient Greeks surpass the Scots in their contribution to mankind.โ
#LauraKuenssberg has just done a great job and bringing out true Tory values helped by Victoria Atkinson. Selfishness concern for their own party not a word about why they lost the election.
In key seats across Scotland only the Scottish Conservatives can beat the SNP and get the focus back onto the peopleโs real priorities.
A vote for any other party - or staying at home - will help the SNP candidates win through the back door.
@AgentP22 Like the rest of your cadre you appear terrified of the principled SNP support for victims of war crimes. One is forced to wonder who is pulling this particular string?
That's honest George but not much of a recommendation. It says much more about the poor quality of your generation's candidates than the quality of this generation. How many of them live in Scotland full time?
Iโve been a candidate in General Elections from 1970 to 2001 and can honestly say the @ScottishLabour candidates in the 2024 election are the best ever and deserve your support
That's the quiet revolution we need. Good to see this part of the democratisation of our country is working successfully, great work Lorne. https://t.co/KFKIUBHXiJ
Apologies for the swearing, but as a Glaswegian & a Red Clydesider this is what Glasgow is all about: https://t.co/IA0hJ9eOpp Our city has always been revolutionary in nature, that's why Churchill sent tanks to our city to quell our socialist rebellion in 1919. John Maclean lives
