Some claim modern monetary theory (MMT) proves that tax doesn’t matter. They’re wrong. Tax is not about funding government spending—it’s about controlling inflation, managing the economy and sustaining democracy. In this video, I explain why without tax, MMT collapses.

To fellow Scots, let's be crystal clear about this. We have absolutely no say in how we govern our country. We cannot borrow to create employment & invest in infrastructure, we cannot say who we want to be in our country, we cannot even vote on our own future! We are a colony!

Good news for Methil, but FS, an £8M barge, that will be used to build three Navy ships in Devon! Crumbs off the table, worth 0.5% of the £1.6B (before inflation) total for the support ships. 14 jobs versus 800 in Devon.
