What is being delivered for Scotland ? Just listened to AB’s speech and don’t see any big changes for Scotland. A commitment to prove JS wrong , a commitment to ignore a call for independence. Promises made for changes in England on water , education and health . #yes #snp #indy #areyouyesyet

Yup and tonight on C4 he talks as if Scotland doesn’t exist but as we know Scotland voted to Remain in the EU and were dragged out despite 60% of folk voting to stay in. Another issue is with him constantly talking about Britain when he talks about water. Excluding the fact Scotland owns its water!

In 2021, UK income tax personal allowance frozen at £12,570, 26.6m paid income tax at the basic rate of 20%. 2026-27: 31.4m liable to pay income tax at 20%. In 2021, 6.47m pensioners paid income tax. 2026-27: 9.58m pensioners liable to income tax. Govt must relieve poverty. End stealth tax.

Andy Burnham announces end of triple-lock on the state pension from 2030. It will be replaced by double-lock, slower growth in state pension. Full state pension is already less than 50%of the minimum wage. Poverty awaits future retirees. £500bn of taxes not collected by HMRC since 2010.

Sometimes it becomes blindingly obvious that wm thinks only of england. This is one such instance. The Scottish Government introduced this years ago, and funds it entirely from the pittance allowed to us by wm. Now, our pensioners pay for the same system in england. I’m actually a bit f***ing angry.

Most of Burnham's promises were for policies to be introduced after the next GE, the national care service, reform of the voting system, closer ties with the EU, all put off until after the next GE - political code for ‘never’. It was a very traditional Labour speech, the jam is always tomorrow.

Burnham saying “on the day my dad died, John Swinney told me I’d be the last PM of the UK”. Crude, low, disingenuous blow. Swinney may well have said it at some event .. I don’t know .. but certainly would not have called him and said “sorry about your dad, mate, but you’ll be the last ..” .. etc

As a Scot I'm just angry. Burnham seems to be saying that if Scots keep voting pro-indy majorities in to Holyrood we'll simply be ignored. So much for UK democracy. He can have an opinion but he doesn't have a vote. If a clear mandate exists he has a democratic duty to cooperate with Scottish govt

Reminder Corporation tax in the UK is 25%. The actual average amount paid is just 13.1%. Because they use a million tax breaks, it costs £80bn a year. But they NEVER talk about this unaffordable tax avoidance by billionaires.
