Westminster has consistently taken an undemocratic approach to Scotland’s people and their calls for a vote.
The new Prime Minister should follow in the footsteps of the SNP Scottish Government by championing the industry at home and abroad and scrap its tax hikes which have slowed the sector's success.
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.
