After almost 20 years in power, the SNP should be going into this election having to answer for its record and not just winning a ballot based on some nebulous concept that Westminster is broken, says @holyroodmandy holyrood.com/editors-column…

A probe into whether Angela Constance broke the ministerial code has been branded a ‘classic SNP whitewash’ after John Swinney’s advisers failed to even interview her.

On April 1st, over a quarter of a million properties all over Scotland will begin to pay rates at newly-assessed valuations, which on average are going up by over 12%. Tens of thousands of shops, pubs, and hotels will see a big increase in their bills, just as businesses are struggling and high streets are feeling more hollowed out than ever. For businesses that own their own premises this is bad enough, but for the many that rent it’s a double blow. The tax is designed to go up in line with their area’s rents, which are reassessed every three years. So just as their rent bill goes up, their rates go up too. In theory, the true incidence of business rates is on landlords. If the tax didn’t exist, the amount would otherwise have been charged in rent. But in practice there’s often a substantial lag, and it’s businesses that bear the full brunt before rents adjust. The SNP is happy to tax and tax without a second thought for growth. Scottish businesses have to pay rates much higher than in the rest of the UK. Even smaller premises in Scotland, rated at under £51,000 a year, pay a higher rate than premises over nine times as valuable in England. But it doesn’t have to be this way. A Reform UK administration in Holyrood will immediately reverse any increases to business rates from the revaluation. And we will also begin to phase business rates entirely out, by at the same time phasing out another of our most economically damaging taxes, the Land and Buildings Transactions Tax. Economists are unanimous that LBTT is one of the worst taxes for growth. It gums up the housing market, leaving people stuck in the wrong homes for their needs, punishing people for moving closer to opportunities and for finding room for their growing families. So to get rid of both business rates and LBTT with one stone, we will gradually phase them out over the course of ten years, rolling them up into a single, fairer, and more predictable annual property tax. This won’t affect any current owner or rate-payer. Instead, it will only apply from the next sale of a property, when the new owner will be given the ability to opt out of paying their huge LBTT bill up-front, by instead opting into paying a much smaller amount each year, consisting of a tiny fraction of the purchase price. Replacing rates and LBTT will bring an end to the constant cycle of continual and unpredictable business rates revaluations, at the same time making it cheaper and easier to purchase property and boosting economic growth, resulting in increased revenues too. Scotland can’t afford another five years of the SNP. For change, the only choice is Reform.

sundaypost.com/fp/angela-cons… At a parliamentary event on Thursday, Women’s Rights Network Scotland discussed their new domestic abuse manifesto, and co-ordinator Mary Howden said: “We are pleased to see the Justice Secretary continuing to make positive change with the introduction of the new review scheme. We hope to meet with her to discuss ways we can work together to tackle the 10.5% increase in sexual crimes, the 7% increase in domestic abuse incidents and the 3% jump in violent attacks. “Like her, we are deeply ­concerned by the increase in figures and would very much like to discuss some of the changes we believe are needed to help improve the criminal justice system, better family law, and education including mandatory age-appropriate lessons on consent, healthy relationships, gender equality, domestic abuse, coercive control, and online pornography from primary level onward. “We also believe better ­training for police officers on domestic abuse, and mandatory training and reporting for teachers, social workers, doctors, nurses and childcare professionals recognising the signs of abuse and coercive control, could make a big difference.” Thank you to @ladymcbeth2 for covering this ⬇️
