A Prince can mak a belted knight,
A marquis, duke, an’ a’ that!
But an honest man’s aboon his might –
Guid faith, he mauna fa’ that!
For a’ that, an’ a’ that,
Their dignities, an’ a’ that,
The pith o’ Sense an’ pride o’ Worth
Are higher rank than a’ that.

This is an intrusive and authoritarian scheme that will only increase mass surveillance and allow the government to target marginalised communities.
No money to support vital services, but Labour can find hundreds of millions for this, which appeared nowhere in their manifesto.

Every year we spend over £500 million to maintain a billionaire king while services are cut and those most in need lose support.
The monarchy is outdated, undemocratic and unjustifiable.
It's no surprise polls consistently show a majority in Scotland would #AbolishTheMonarchy.

There's simply no reason for an unelected, unaccountable King to have any role in Scotland’s education system. It adds a completely unnecessary step to the process.
Other parties must stop fawning over wealth and privilege and help us to make our education system that bit more efficient.
