BRITAIN is looking down the barrel of historic economic decline and Scotland is no exception to that.
Despite their claims to be “standing up for Scotland,” the recklessness of the Tories at Westminster has been met with a period of relative inactivity from the SNP at Holyrood.

This has come as no shock to many of us however: inactivity and laying low have been the calling cards of the SNP for years. Nowhere is that more acutely obvious than the state of our NHS.
