Indeed, though the number of SNP votes were not that far behind Labour votes in Scotland. However, the media and money behind LabourCons had the desired effect, to neutralise the SNP at WM. They are starting the process of doing that at Holyrood in 2026, we absolutely cannot let that happen. Labour's legacy in Scotland at council level, at government level at Holyrood and indeed at Westminster level, is utterly atrocious. I say legacy, Labour is in coalition in several councils across Scotland to keep the majority party the SNP out, and certainly here in Edinburgh they are wrecking the city, it's a dump. Sad really.
Yes the Scottish Child Payment of £25 per week per child has reduced child poverty, which I presume on Labour's watch in Scotland and at Westminster was much higher than that of England.
I don't quite get it though, is it becuase Labour presume most people don't give a damn about children living, existing rather, in poverty? Little children going hungry, is clearly not on some peoples' list of societal concerns including Labour MP's who live on, actually live not just survive, on what, £100k per year. I'd have thought Labour MP's operating in Scotland would not want the people of Scotland to see them for what they are, a mere branch office, taking orders from their masters in London. Hmm.
Prof John at Talking Up Scotland has an article about a brand new LabEngLabour in Scotland MP who 'works daily with children and young people in some of the affected communities' re poverty, who er just voted to keep the two child cap. Wow! She promised before the UK/GB/British General election held by England to 'address child poverty in Scotland', and people believed her lies, that's the scary part. As Prof John says, 'betrayal and moral decay'. It's a huge two fingers gesture at the voters, at Ayr, Carrick and Cumnock.
I wonder if LabourUKEngGB party might be keeping ending the two child cap to just before the Scottish election in 2026? Orchestrating and claiming that 'Scottish' Labour instigated such. Or it could be that Starmer's right wing Labour party just does not care one jot about starving children in his GB not so great.
Kidstarver has certainly proven he is just that, a selfish, greedy, lying, child poverty enabler. Disgraceful.
So, Murray and his band of 36 English Labour MPs representing Scotland, vote AGAINST change. If only The People of Scotland had seen that one coming……
