Scottish Labour Voters Confused...

Following recent back door deals between labour and conservative councillors, many labour voters in Scotland have been left confused over which party to vote for.

Social Media is swamped with rumours that Labour supporters are being told to vote Conservative in a bid to kick the SNP out of Westminster, The fact that councillors who were voted in under the Labour Party banner joined forces with the Conservatives has left many labour supporters in Scotland totally confused.

We all know that a Conservative win will only bring us more cuts, more austerity and a lot more poverty.

The Scottish Conservatives only have 2 Policies.

1. Say no to Indyref2

2. Do whatever Theresa May tells them to do

Scottish Labour doesn't have anything better to offer either, and as we all know a labour vote will just give more power to the conservatives.

So That leaves us with very few choices...

Scotland for years was a Labour stronghold and when power was first devolved there was a hung parliament in Holyrood. Scottish Labour held the largest minority and they joined with the Liberal Democrats to form the first Scottish Executive.

It was under Scottish Labour that many of the financial problems first began and by 2006 they had amassed a deficit of over £6.7 billion pounds. Any party coming into power after that would have a mountain to climb trying to bring that deficit down, especially given the cuts being made in Westminster to Scotland's financial budget.

It was the SNP that were left with the job of sorting out the financial mess left by the Labour/Lib dem coalition when they gained power in 2007. Starting with such a large financial deficit was a huge undertaking for the SNP, especially given the cuts being made in Westminster to Scotland's financial budget.

The SNP have made their limited handouts from Westminster stretch far and wide and with the recently devolved taxes only now have a chance to bring the current deficit down. So when people start shouting about under-funding this and cuts to that remember who it was that got Scotland into this mess in the first place.

The SNP have always put the people of Scotland first despite the contradictions being made by the other parties.

Claims of failing health care and education in Scotland are totally untrue, as nurses in Scotland are paid more than their English counterparts and Scotland has one of the highest standards of education in the UK.

Time to put the the Red Tories in their place and Vote SNP on the 8th of June
