Don't understand why Scotland voted for the Tories its like Turkeys voting for Christmas. To be honest I don't understand why anyone votes Tory in Scotland or England. They try and make out that they are the party of economic responsibility but they try and get rid of the deficit and debt at the expense of the poorest in society while the top 1% is unaffected and they can continue with there lavish lifestyles and having caviar for breakfast while the poorest in society have to choose between eating or heating.

The only way you can help people and get the economy moving is by investing and by investing in people. If you invest in people and create more jobs, housing and give people a decent wage which they can live off they will then spend that wage in shops, restaurants etc meaning that money will go back into the economy and will eventually bring the deficit and National debt down quicker.

If they abandoned white elephants projects like HS2 and stopped fracking then that money could be used for public services and to build more council houses and affordable houses to help people.

As Tony Benn said. "If we can find money to kill people, we can find the money to help people".
