Laura Mitchell: “Our key industries - be it oil and gas or whisky - are facing crippling taxes from Westminster.”

Andy Burnham must, as a priority, scrap the Labour Party’s national insurance tax hike, which has destroyed jobs and cost Scotland’s businesses huge sums of money.

Unlike the UK Government, the SNP will always stand up for Scotland’s whisky and spirits trade and it’s high time the Labour Government backed this successful industry.

The Labour Party promised to back Scotland's whisky sector 'to the hilt' before the election, but instead Scottish Labour MPs waltzed through the voting lobbies to hammer the industry - our greatest export deserves better.

Tory politicians proposing to force nuclear power plants on Scotland should tell us who among them wants one of these extortionate, wasteful, and unnecessary nuclear plants built in their constituency.
