A budget utterly devoid of economic ambition

Budget of Hope? Make no mistake, this is simply another tax and spend jamboree from the SNP. The only difference between Shona Robison’s budget and that of Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ is that the SNP one lacks ambition. It lacks ambition for growth. It lacks ambition for business.

Conclusive, final proof of damage that's being inflicted by financially illiterate SNP

Apr 24, 2024 | dailymail.co.uk | Michael Glackin

Life's two certainties used to be death and taxes. But in Scotland there is a difference. Death doesn’t get worse every time the Scottish Government delivers a Budget. And yesterday’s tax and migration report from HMRC finally, and conclusively, revealed just how much damage the SNP’s decision to make Scotland the highest taxed part of the UK is doing.
