Absolutely incredible that Paul Hutcheon doesn't give a single mention to the charities and women's rights groups who have lobbied to scrap the benefit cap and rape clause. He gives all credit to Anas Sarwar and Labour.
It tells you that Labour only listen to themselves.

The reason the top 10% of income earners pay more than half of all tax revenue is NOT because they are taxed more than ever.
Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.
They are paying more because their INCOME has increased astronomically, where the income of the bottom half has

The Labour Government refused a 1% asset tax on the super rich, yet raised taxes on people already struggling.
All whilst their "black hole" turned out to be utter nonsense.
Active choices to refuse to fund our communities which they desperately need.

The British media have a lot to answer for, if they had done their jobs, asked Farage & Brexit supporting Tories the proper questions in 2016. If they had done their jobs rather than peddled, unchallenged, Russian propaganda, we would never have left the EU.

Why are the media now addressing your party as "the left wing Your Party". Even using it on their ticker at bottom.
Heard the BBC say it and now channel 4 news doing the same. Never addressed tories as the right wing tories or reform as the far right reform party.

Trump thinks the immigrant population in the US is too high - and he’s right. It’s a 97% immigrant population, since there are only 9.7 million Native Americans.

The IDF blew the head off a guy in the street who had been talking to an ITV camera crew, the moment they stopped filming, very obviously just as a fuck you. Calling for them to investigate themselves is just saying Oh no, this looks bad, then doing nothing.
