It's time we take the power out of the hands of Westminster politicians and put it into the hands of a Scottish Parliament that will deliver on people’s priorities and wishes.
It’s perfectly reasonable and democratic to put the question of Independence to the people of Scotland and the Scottish Parliament must have the power to do so.
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 and ended their supertax on Scotland’s premier drink.
But the tax hikes imposed on the industry by Labour and Tory MPs at Westminster have driven down sales, brought down tax revenue, and placed enormous pressures on distilleries across Scotland.
