Does a resident doctor earn more than an MP? No. Let’s save the desperate morality grasps from politicians then. MPs have had umpteen pay rises since 2010 and they have quietly and relentlessly awarded these to themselves, regardless of what the public is going through.

What this article doesn't point out - because it's not news - is the fact that our Scottish Government is at no point consulted or informed about British budget planning. It finds out when we do. And then has little time to re-plan its own budget to fit.

Scotland is a net exporter of electricity to the rest of the UK.
It exported approximately 15.9 TWh of electricity to UK nations, including 13.9 TWh to England and Wales.
Much comes from renewable sources, 91.2% being low-carbon in 2023.
Scottish Independence, there's not even an argument.

What is it about the electorate's inability to understand when they are being sold a 'pup'?
I'm not defending Nippy & her ex hubs, But this smacks of one huge cover up which surely would bring into question Labour's legitimacy to govern.

Vote Labour at HR election next year and Scottish Labour could almost certainly make NHS staff pay for parking at work.
Is that what you really want for the hard working nurses and medics who look after you when you are at your most vulnerable ??

This alone should be reason not to vote Labour next year. Their Thatcherite legacy lives on in PFI schemes that continue to rob the public purse and public sector workers to this day, due to cost the Scottish taxpayer around £1.1bn this year with £13bn still to be paid.
