Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year. Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants. They are good for society and the economy.

The SNP is scrapping the two-child cap and lifting children out of poverty. The UK Labour government wants to impose cruel cuts that will push 50,000 more children into poverty. And Anas Sarwar is supporting the UK Labour Government in punishing the vulnerable.

In 2023, Scotland generated 48.7 TWh of electricity from all sources. Of this wind contributed 25.8 TWh and hydro 4.6 TWh. Scotland is a net exporter of electricity, with 15.9 TWh exported in 2023, or 33.8% of its generation. Zonal pricing would mean lower prices for Scots!

Scotland is the only part of the UK where child poverty is falling, thanks to the different choices we made. Labour has chosen the path of austerity cuts. What is the point of a Labour government that will push 50,000 more children into poverty, according to its own figures?
