WHO DO YOU TRUST TO SOLVE THE COST OF LIVING CRISIS? The mainstream parties have shown that they are totally unable (and unwilling) to address the cost of living crisis. Only real socialist change can meaningfully improve the lives of working-class people. #VoteSSP for a series of measures to tackle the cost of living crisis, including free public transport, replacing the council tax with a progressive income-based alternative, and investing in public services. #CostOfLiving #Election #Crisis #Change

"The first two weeks of the Scottish Socialist Party’s election campaign have been a hectic whirlwind of door-to-door canvassing, leafleting, street stalls, public meetings, picket line visits, social media posts, podcast interviews, fundraising events and hustings."

@paulhutcheon @Record_Politics There would be more money for neonatal services if Labour hadn't privatised Wishaw General, costing the NHS £hundreds of million compared to if it was an NHS hospital. Vote @The_SSP_.

"Paradoxically, the SNP’s strategy of seeking both votes on May 7 plays into the hands of Farage perfectly. It will secure the SNP virtually none of the crucial regional list seats. And yet, were these ballots deployed more deftly they could neuter Farage." @colinfoxssp in today's @ScotNational on the SNP's prospects, and why independence supporters should NOT waste their second vote on the SNP. #Election #independence #VoteSSP #Socialist #Holyrood thenational.scot/politics/26018…

"As the Scottish Socialist Party candidate for Edinburgh and Lothians East I want to congratulate you all for standing up for yourselves in the face of the compulsory redundancies suggested by University management. "The people of Scotland are proud of every last one of you today in the strike action you are taking in defence of your jobs and those of your colleagues.   "Collectively, we are here today to tell University Vice Chancellors across the country that the most valuable assets they have are not their multi-million pound new buildings, it's you, the staff. Without the people who work at our Universities, they are nothing. "And this election on May the 7th affords us the opportunity to put that message centre-stage, namely that it is working people who matter most, not Principals on £450,000 a year. "All power to you. "The Scottish Socialist Party is proud to stand alongside you in your struggle. We look forward to your victory for it will represent a success for working people everywhere." -Colin Fox, SSP National Co-Spokesperson and Lothians Regional List Candidate
