People in Grangemouth and across Scotland are fed-up with being treated as an afterthought by Westminster.

Grangemouth needs that money and it needs it now – Andy Burnham must immediately tell the people of Grangemouth exactly when that money is coming and exactly how it will be spent.

Labour promised £200m of support for industry in Grangemouth, but not a penny of it has been delivered.

The SNP is clear that we firmly oppose the industrial closures at Grangemouth and we will continue to push bosses to reconsider this decision.

Firstly, my thoughts are with all the workers of Syngenta and their families at this hugely challenging time.

Grangemouth needs the money it was promised, and it needs it now.

People in Grangemouth rightly feel that they have been let down time and time again by this UK Labour Government.

My thoughts are with all the workers at Syngenta and their families at what is a hugely challenging time.

Once again, Scotland's workers and our energy security is paying the price for Westminster mismanagement – the only way to ensure Scotland has an industrial policy which will always put Scotland first is with independence.

£200m was pledged by the Labour UK Government, but yet again Westminster has betrayed Scottish industry with our energy workers paying the price.

It is a complete disgrace.
