Scotland’s Deputy First Minster has said the budget he laid out to parliament on Thursday was “bleak” and the delivery of public services will likely require reform.
In the wake of the budget, council leaders condemned it, claiming it could lead to an end to some public services. “It was an explanation of the very real difficulties we find ourselves in as a consequence of some of the global issues which we often feel are a long way away from us, but on this occasion the war in Ukraine has brought energy and price inflation right to the heart of our economy and public services – compounded by some of the significant strategic mistakes that have been made in the United Kingdom around Brexit and the mini-budget in early September.
Public sector reform has been required throughout the SNP's majority in HR. They chose to do nothing due to their obsession with popularity & independence. Sad fact is that they've couldn't spell productivity, much less do anything to stimulate it in the PS.
It seems the SNP has blindsided itself. They have definitely entered a blind alley & are scrapping the sides to climb out. The caring government,(SNP Words) is so deep in debt that Sturgeon's husband has had to bail them out? Now they ARE squeezing the voters in every direction.
