Nearly 50% of its workforce are on Universal Credit, receiving about Β£600m a year.

Why isn't Tesco paying?

Unemployment statistics NOT reported by BBC/ITV or SkyNews

Wales - 6.1%
England - 5.2%
Scotland - 3.8%
This is achieved despite many economic levers being reserved to Westminster & denied to Holyrood
Now do you understand why they don't want to see us as a success story within this despotic union?

Scotland is one of the most energy-rich countries in Europe, yet families here pay some of the highest bills.

That simply does not add up. An energy-rich Scotland should mean energy-rich Scots.

Scottish Child Payment | Food Insecurity | Deprivation New analysis shows the Scottish child payment sharply reduces child deprivation and food insecurity, with no evidence of work disincentives. Discover the findings.

New study from LSE, York & Glasgow universities shows the Scottish Child Payment is transforming lives.

Without it, 70,000 more children would face deprivation and food insecurity.

We will keep investing in families and lifting children out of poverty.

My advice to people, take I'm angry at people not being paid as badly as me.

And turn it into, I'm angry at being paid badly.

Median wage 2008 - Β£24,769
Median wage 2025 - Β£29,600

Inflation from 2008-2025 - 70.51%, your wage should be Β£42,231

We should all be angry.

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!
