Scotland's poverty rate confirmed by the Rowntree Foundation 20% lower than in England. Lotsa reasons for this including the Council Tax Reduction Scheme, the Scottish Child Payment Scheme and other measures to try to mitigate the impact of the cost of living and energy crisis on poor and vulnerable groups within the populace.
Meanwhile, Scottish business leaders are speaking out in ever stronger terms as they count the cost of a hard Brexit Scotland didn’t vote for. In one example, the President of the National Farmers Union of Scotland recently warned the whole industry was under threat of being wiped out due to this hard Brexit deal and I remember how cosy the NFU has been for years n years with the Tories - silly people!! Ditto with the fishing industry up here!!
