When Tory’s first got into power it was splashed all over the Scottish newspaper saying, that every person in Scotland would be £500 worse off which most that remember the last time around they were in weren’t surprised & it did happen right at the start and every person I know has suffered one way or another
Some are already happened some hasn’t really stopped like myself who is going though it still. We have to remember back to that paper to realise that the same week we were told that the English were being told how many out us worked and claimed benefits….. But what again they didn’t realise that TAX CREDIT was under these benefits, benefits come under the umbrella of any assistance at all from the governments, that’s including rent or council tax benefit..
Many that voted for Tory of ukip did so on the EU & Working Class Family’s that they wouldn’t touch your tax credit, I can’t believe that people believed it.
But us in Scotland has felt the federal Scottish ways back to councils lately which has been hard to deal with on top of health issues among other things, I do agree with the #SNP but at the moment, I have always been a SNP voter and have always had a SNP council since I was very young, but I have to say I have not had as much help as there could and should be. And that’s going to my MP!!!!
And while I do agree with some of there policies not them all of them but being in EU yes but then the EU on where it is now and what is done to us…….
Fishing, oil is it is not one thing is another. I had many friends that worked on the fishing boats they all wanted to join the EU yet it was the death of the industry.
Some of my fishing friends then we’re stuck for what to do as a job, most of them got through the training for going off shore in one way or another but again you need to pass a medical. There was a few of my friends that didn’t manage to get medical pass which really had made the death of the industry.
Just the other day there was a incident in Aberdeen, young boy stabbed at his school and it may not have directly influenced what happened at this school, but Aberdeen must be really feeling it atm between the fish industry and now the oil not going as good atm. Even the council was in financial difficulties, this must have a on set onto the community at large.
Whatever the outcome with the EU referendum we need to make jobs and new opportunities for young and old. But while under Westminster rule this will always be difficult, if the system we have is broken we need to put things together more to help those that are at the moment slipping though the system.
If the SNP wants to fight this EU new deal it might back fire on them, there is a lot of talk that the SNP will suffer, but no body wants to expand on these reasons. Weather it’s being kept from us or not, I am sure we will find out in the long run. But politics atm is not a nice business is so cut throat that it’s just not something that can be taken out with reform. The reform I feel can only happen once we change society.
The reform we looking at, at the moment would be two or three teirs system still even having second class politicians not just as it is now. Which means only power that matters will still be in the hands of the rich and powerful!!!! The BIG BROTHER WATCHING comes to mind.
As we walk into a global society, free trade etc I think this will become easier but the way they have set up this mad system and until Scotland is on her own financially and Scottish law fully independent from the English Westminster role I can’t see any way can find our way to a new system, while still under this old UK model.
Now much has been said about the new powers to Scottish councils, going back to the start of this I mentioned that we were the ones that for this first as usual just like Poll Tax etc etc.
England away to do northern powerhouse, this would just mean what’s happened here in Scotland will now go ahead in England.
The papers won’t write about these changes because they don’t want us to work together they would rather there was fighting and distance between the different parts of UK just to divide people, because there always be a divide. That way they can blame everyone but the government!!! Weather north or south of the border. The people are trying to say that we in Scotland are just moaning but I think in the next 5 years England will find that it’s going to be even worse for them. Because we had it done but the government helped people that was going to our feeling the cuts, I don’t think England will be as well done by as what the Scottish government did to help the residents.
Snp have kept things rocking over yes more money would be good we took the hit and we felt it but we knew this would come.
In England they don’t have the provisions that we have, I really don’t know how others will manage as well as there tax credit reform.
I will leave this with the below link it’s from wings over Scotland and a tweet from Andrew Neil with a strange answer I would defo love to know why he said this, is he having a go at SNP or there policies or maybe something else that us scots don’t know about with what way this is being run, and why they think it will back fire.
.
A question for Andrew Neil
U may also see the video of labour party Perth where they taking the mic out of labour speech taking out the jibes about SNP is quiet funny although in the bigger picture of things a one party state in Scotland will always be over shadowed from London until this changes I don’t know if Scotland will accept labour after all the years of lies and deceit to the public.
I would love nothing more than to sort society out but there has to be the want from public but also of governments. But they don’t want it that way, they want a confused society. It’s better managed by the police state, governments & banks etc if we don’t agree. Like in the independence referendum all they lies that were told, through the police & political party’s and press. I no longer buy any news papers because I just don’t trust there agendas. But not only that half the time people are funding these agenda by buying these rags buying these lies that are called news, most untrue.
For now peeps 💚 & ✌ 😉
