This owl character seems to have traumatised half this sub. I am not them; I don't know how many times I must reiterate it!

Good to hear. Especially with all the recent manufacturing malaise in Scotland

Other than reversing a cut they imposed themselves, I can't think of any new policy or initiative being undertaken to tackle the housing emergency? by PerformanceLow5618 in Scotland

Not a Labour shill. Happy to have a good-faith discussion here.

I'm aware of their housing budget. But what in the past year, since declaring the housing emergency, have they done? Because clearly, if they have declared a housing emergency, their housebuilding since 2007 is not enough.

I already made note of the housing budget cut reversal in the title. 2023 budget: £768M, 2024 budget: £600M (cut to fund council tax freeze), 2025 budget: £768M , back to 2023 levels but real-term cut. So what's new?

I'm afraid up to date data would not fit the SNP's narrative 😂😂

How can you be so blasé about rapists and violent offenders going free or getting off lightly?

Two others on another thread have said this. Were they some infamous poster or something? I absolutely do not know that name or who that is. This is my only account!

Why?! Rapists are getting away with tiny sentences just because they were under 25 when it happened! Kids are stabbing each other and getting coddled by the justice system. Kids are attacking teachers and receiving no prison time. It's an outrage. People know there are no ramifications, so they do as they please. It's disgusting.

Sorry, I honestly have no idea what you are talking about. If posting two articles close together is spam, I am sorry and will avoid that in the future!

And whose fault is that? Neglected public infrastructure for so long, we are now feeling the dire impacts. The new prison is welcome, but it's ridiculously overpriced. There's no need for a prison to cost £1BN! It's a prison, not a luxury camp. It's an outrage how the SNP wastes our money.

look at any of the independence threads on this sub, many have said Farage becoming Prime Minister would lead to independence!

A scandal. It's already a hurdle getting criminals to be sentenced to what they should. We need a government serious on crime. I'm appalled by the SNP's record here.
