The future of our oil and gas industry is on the line in today’s by-election in Aberdeen South.
A lot of voters across Aberdeen see this whole episode as making the SNP not trustworthy.
The SNP have a brass neck after betraying the Acorn project by only releasing £5m of the promised £80m they pledged more than four years ago.
People understand this is a chance for them to send both Labour and the SNP a strong message about the oil and gas industry.
