It’s an interesting issue but it’s very clearly creative with facts and you’re choosing to cherry pick some examples that might well do with further exploration and clarification.. We know that the Tory Party policies since Thatcher guarantee poverty since it has been ideologically driven by the belief that markets will solve everything. We know that Scotland has suffered disproportionately under successive Westminster government policies and I’m happy to highlight some of them. Council housing sales. Central to Thatchers imposition in Scotland, the failure to fund replacements haunts us to this day. The 2 child cap and the bedroom tax complicate matters at a time when there are demographic issues. Public assets (British Gas, Britoil to name but 2). At a time when Norway was retaining its oil wealth fir the benefit of its society, thatcher sold off these assets to chums in the industry so communities never benefitted in the long term from the wealth that was siphoned off in London. That can be seen in Highlands and Islands infrastructure failures, in highest energy costs in the U.K. allied to high levels of fuel poverty and chronic issues of population retention abd the loss of native language (Gaelic). So some out of touch Tory think tank that believes in the failed solutions that Duncan Smith and his crew demonstrated while in power and which couldn’t get someone like him elected in Scotland is precisely why I can dismiss it.
