An admirable sentiment. Every credible economic analysis of independence, plus the SNP's own growth commission report, says it will increase poverty by forcing additional cuts in public spending. So if eradicating child poverty is your number one aim, independence needs to be off the table, yes?
Eradicating child poverty is my government’s number one priority, and I want to unite all of Scotland behind that aim.
Earlier today I hosted a roundtable at Bute House with partners, discussing the specific measures to achieve our shared goal.
