Angus SNP

In an act of desperation Reeves has announced the last gamble of every failed chancellor - financial deregulation. Risky lending, fewer safeguards, and less consumer protection. We all know what happens when Westminster gambles: the bubble bursts and taxpayers pick up the bill.

🚨 Labour and independent councillors have today voted to put a Tory-controlled Administration into power in Angus. 🗳️ Despite being rejected by the electorate in 2022, the Tories are now in power thanks to Labour, independent and an ex-SNP councillor.

✅ Our Budget has passed for 2025/26. 🤝 We're delivering #AmbitionForAngus

First Minister @JohnSwinney met students with care experience on a visit to @UofGlasgow on the fifth anniversary of The Promise. Earlier, he announced local family services would receive a greater share of funding to help #KeepThePromise by 2030. ➡️ bit.ly/416Pmwb

💷 £1.9bn in key support payments was made by @SocSecScot in the year 2023/24- including over £37.6m in Angus. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 This is across 14 Scottish benefits, 7 unavailable elsewhere in the UK.  Scottish Child Payment alone has benefitted 329,000+ children. 👉graemedey.info/social-securit…

📈 The UK Government have delivered another tax hike for Scotland's food and drink industry in this Budget. 🥃 Spirit producers in Angus and across Scotland should be supported to thrive - this duty increase is the opposite of that approach.

The SNP is the democratically elected government of Scotland. If Labour think that is irrelevant then it shows the contempt the Labour Party holds for Scotland. It's clear only @theSNP will put the people of Scotland first. On 4th July, vote SNP.

🚧 We know road maintenance is important to local residents. 📈 That's why we're now investing an extra £500,000 in roads maintenance, on top of the £1 million uplift we have made permanent in this year's Budget. ✅ @theSNP is #DeliveringForAngus.

Just do it ✔️

I look forward to leading @theSNP in this election. This is the moment to remove the Tory Govt and put Scotland First by voting SNP. People in Scotland know we stand up for them and protect them from the damage done by Westminster. #voteSNP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I’d add to this: Angus’ only Labour Councillor voted for the Tory budget proposal today. And all the Tories voted for the amendment she and an independent Councillor brought...

🌳🤝🥀 Tory and Labour Councillors in Angus budget proposals would’ve hiked your council tax by 8%. 🟡 However, your SNP-led Administration have introduced a fully funded Council Tax freeze to protect families during the cost of living crisis. 🤝 We’re #DeliveringForAngus.

🔍 This project is 44% of the Council’s capital spending plan until 2028. 👇 What a huge investment in Monifieth and Sidlaw, happening under @theSNP.
