A libertarian returns to Scotland
"Freedom and Whisky gang thegither"
- Robert Burns
Thursday 25 April 2002
Business AM reports today that some of Labour's business donors aren't too happy with the budget. The real mystery is why any businessperson would expect a Labour government to be anything other than anti-business. Of course, the Conservatives and the Illiberal Democrats aren't much better. At least the Sunbed Socialist Party doesn't claim to be pro-business, but what of the Nationalists? Their new "Economic Policy and Positioning" document - not yet approved by their membership - calls for a reduction in corporation tax but is unclear on the SNP's plans for income tax. I suspect that this will be the main ongoing story between now and next year's Scottish election.
