RACHEL Reeves’s pronouncement that Labour won’t advance a wealth tax or raise the 45 rate for top earners are the final nails in its coffin.…
parliamentary majority, was no shrinking violet. With polls showing support for independence at only about 28%, he took the incredibly bold decision to negotiate a referendum with the Cameron government. Alex and those patriotic Scots who defied the odds and took Scotland to the brink of freedom, gave the English/British establishment an almighty fright.Alex was followed by his deputy,, who quickly established her competence and showed real leadership during the Covid pandemic.
Her governments introduced some progressive life-enhancing policies, especially for poor and vulnerable people. But after nine years of intelligent governance, support for independence is virtually where it was in September 2014, disappointing many activists. Is Nicola’s legacy to be merely one of capable managerialism?
In spite of an unenviable hand, Humza Yousaf has handled a difficult situation with confidence. But is he going to continue Nicola’s cautious approach to the party’s primary goal or will he show some of Alex’s bravado? Will he settle and promote the currency question? Will he destroy Project Fear’s pension myth to OAPs’ satisfaction? And will he show the Border barrier to our English relatives is another dishonest Unionist chimera?ON Thursday, the City of Edinburgh Council will discuss and hopefully end the anachronism of unelected religious representatives voting on its Education Committee.and are free to express them, just not from a privileged position in local government granted to no other social minorities.
We urge CEC to champion democracy in its decision. In doing so it will join in a domino effect that already includes Perth and Kinross, Fife, Moray, Scottish Borders, Orkney and Highland councils.JUST a small correction to your report on the provisional agenda for the SNP conference . Resolution No 8 mentioned was proposed by Almond and Earn SNP branch and supported by Perthshire South and Kinrossshire CA as well as many others mentioned.
