Happy New Year Everyone!
Well, it is another election year and the build up to the Holyrood elections in May is well and truly on.
Both Alex Salmond and Iain Gray gave an indication of what the election will be fought in their recent addresses.
Salmond is suggesting a vote for the SNP will be a vote towards economic independence for Scotland.
Gray is suggesting a vote for Labour will be a vote towards more jobs for Scotland.
Can I just remind people of previous assertions made by politicians?
Back in 2007, Salmond said an SNP government would bring about a referendum on Scottish independence. Well, where is it?!
Back in 2010, Labour said a vote for them would keep the Tories out of Westminster. Well Scotland voted for Labour in their droves and still ended up with a Tory government in Westminster.
Back in 2010, the Lib Dems said……. Ah, that one would take too long!
So if you want to let off steam about politicians or just to discuss politics in general, join us over at Our Scotland.
