John Swinney: “We will continue to use all the powers available to build prosperity, while making the case for greater powers to help…”

Make no mistake – if we had lost the election this year, if we were out of power – then the independence cause would have been set back decades.

So Scotland’s a welcoming country. We want to make sure that when people come to Scotland, we can support them and that we can support them well.

I’ve got a track record throughout my political life of working to make sure as many powers as possible are exercised here in Scotland.

Friends, we are winning. One by one, the stars are aligning in our favour.
