Governments borrowing to build this kind of infrastructure makes total economic sense, but these bonds are not the way to do that.

The Public Record
The case for independence must be credible, serious and focused on how we can improve people’s lives with the full powers of a normal nation.
Scotland needs investment in homes, bus and rail services, schools and hospitals.
Scotland’s public finances are under huge pressure right now. The answer to that challenge must include serious investment plans from the Scottish Government, not risky gimmicks like this.
There currently isn’t any clear government strategy or guidance for councils on how to deal with these applications.
Will she continue Labour's tradition of letting them away with absolutely anything?
The crime was a matter for the police and the prosecution service. They have done their job.
I am glad that Parliament supported our call for an independent investigation into party political finances.
It is not the job of politicians to mark our own homework, that must be done independently and fairly.
And from what I heard from people in Glasgow yesterday, you had grown men walking down Buchanan Street screaming at anyone who wasn't white, including children who were not white, screaming at them: ‘Send them home’.
If MPs won’t improve transparency across the UK, MSPs can at least do that here in Scotland.
I stand against that, the Scottish Greens stand against that. I think the vast majority of people in this country reject that kind of hatred.
I'm proud of the fact that Scotland is a welcoming country. I'm proud of the fact that this is a country where people like that are on the margins of our society.
The BBC should not be legitimizing these people by calling them anti-immigration campaigners.
Those were racist rioters. If you're burning the houses down of people who are not white, you are a racist rioter, you're a criminal, you are a scumbag.
I've got to be honest, I was horrified to hear the BBC a minute ago describe what happened in Belfast as anti-immigration campaigners.
We need to talk about the influence that wealthy individuals and organisations wield via their donations to politicians and the huge amount of secrecy that still surrounds money in politics.
That's why the Scottish Greens’ proposal also calls for these powers to be devolved to the Scottish Parliament.
Did they call for this review because they’re serious about restoring trust in politics, or because they want another stick to beat the SNP with?
Labour are now trying to waste taxpayers’ money on an inquiry into the SNP without even explaining what the point would be.
Peter Murrell’s crimes were a horrendous breach of the trust of SNP members and supporters. He will now face the consequences of his actions.
