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.
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.
These figures show that Scotland’s world-famous spirits sector has the skills and products to succeed in spite of the harmful Westminster policies being levelled against it.
