This is a list of the harm that has been inflicted upon us by
Westminster & what it has done to Scotland by the Torys & the Labour, LibDems & UKIP/Reform are complicit in the damage to our country & still it continues by those blinkered unionists who need to wake up & stop with the anti SNP keech.

if you're a private tenant in Scotland you need to read this. No fault evictions are not a thing here thanks to the SNP govt. If you want to retain this protection you need to support/vote for the SNP - Unionist parties will almost certainly follow their London master's agenda to align with WM.

‘Total panic’: the effect of no-fault evictions on renters in England has not applied in Scotland since the SNP Government abolished them in 2016 and is not the only way in which life is better here

Labour isn't a UK government but an English Nationalist one.
They save one of many English refineries, but let the only Scottish one die.

Farage has no solutions for working people.

He would cut Scotland’s budget, while the SNP is putting your priorities first:

✅ Scrapping peak rail fares
✅ Delivering more NHS appointments
✅ Restoring winter fuel payments
