Reform offer simple solutions to complex issues which fail on proper scrutiny, tapping into real frustrations,they propose fixes that would only make things worse in practice. Privatising the NHS, unfunded tax cuts à la Liz Truss, blocking the skilled workers our economy needs

The people of Scotland are sovereign but WM reserved control of constitutional affairs in 1998 Scotland Act which blocks a referendum even when there is a pro-independence majority elected. John Swinney is seeking an outright SNP majority so that the 2011 precedence is invoked.

It was great to be out with @JohnSwinney and @PeteWishart to Perth Farmers Market last Saturday . It was the 27th anniversary of Scotland’s first market in Perth and I’m delighted it’s going as strong as ever and very proud of the movement we started

Scotland needs more carers, but Westminster is driving them away. Labour’s hostile immigration plans and their tax on jobs are hammering Scotland’s social care sector. With the fresh start of independence, we can build a migration system suited to our needs and interests.
