While NHS staff in England are still disgracefully fined for parking while caring for patients, in Scotland @thesnp @scotgov put an end to this.
This action by @theSNP @scotgov has saved staff and patients over £90 million since 2008, by scrapping hospital parking charges.

Your SNP Scottish Government has abolished peak rail fares for good.
This means a cheaper daily commute for thousands across Scotland.
That’s money back in your pocket, whether you’re travelling for work or leisure, given the reduced cost of rail travel.

The UK economy has now shrunk for the second month in a row.
This is entirely under Labour, their choices, their fiscal rules, their cuts, their NI rises, and their inability to bring down energy prices.
Can we afford to remain a part of broken Britain?

Michael Shanks MP, the UK Labour Government's Energy Minister, believes there is no difference between domestic and foreign oil production.
I believe it makes a world of difference to hundreds of thousands of oil and gas workers across the North East of Scotland.

First Aberdeen’s single fare prices will apply on these services, which also means they will be included in the Scottish Government’s free bus travel schemes.
