More good stuff from Blair with the sound advice to fight on your territory not your opponents

Can I ask why there is not a published list of failures of a SNP Government? Why is the 15 Billion Deficit not discussed, why is the double figure GDP not discussed, why is not highlighted Scotland has NO Bank or Currency , why is it not highlighted workers in Scotland pay more tax while a long list of freebies are given to people not working ? , why is it not highlighted the real cost to separate and set up an independent Country-,welfare, health, education, how will our pensions be protected, what financial reserve does Scotland actually have. The EU situation is clear to me that Scotland will never meet the requirements to be considered as a member with a 15 Billion deficit and a double figure GDP, also Spain will never vote Scotland in as it has its own internal independence situation... so once again I ask why is this list not published every day before the May Elections??? A final thought, without the UK Furlough payments how would Scotland survive.... jobs , homes, cars, will be lost and bankruptcy is guaranteed

Very good, Blair. The major problems remain: the SNP will go on telling lies, and inventing new ones. We cannot campaign on a level playing field until they stop lying and admit the truth. Further, the Scottish broadcast media are either pro-SNP (STV) or else intimidated by the SNP (BBC). We hear occasional sense from Sky or C4, who are not similarly constrained. We need broadcasters to scrutinise Sturgeon’s regime as they do Johnson’s.
