I can’t help but doubt the sincerity. The truth is that Scotland significantly outperforms all other parts of the UK on the issue of child poverty and this coincides not only with devolution but with the SNP in power. 18/19% in Scotland compared to figures more like 24% in England and Wales.
But according to record it is a stain on Scotland exclusively.
Instead we should be looking to see what is working and how to build on it. Next target should be to follow New Zealand’s example and get it to 15%.
If you're hoping to win independence and govern a country then sometimes you have to write in joint up writing. Saying aye but we're not as bad as England only cuts it for so long. Very little of what you posted has any relevance to the headline.
Joint up writing?
