There appears to be no limit to the amount of YOUR money this Labour government wants to tax away from you and give away to other countries. 🥀

Pleased to back @Rachael2Win’s proposed Equipment Theft Bill which will give farmers and rural businesses better protection from machinery theft. Too many across the Highlands and Islands are victims of rural crime while the SNP government in Edinburgh fails to act. 🚜

My colleague @CraigWHoy1 raised this with John Swinney at #FMQs who just waived away any concerns. “After the scheme got the go-ahead, a senior official at Flotation Energy gave a £30,000 donation to Mr Flynn’s local SNP branch”.

John Swinney absolutely skewered by @RussellFindlay1 on the spiralling costs the SNP’s new £1 BILLION Barlinnie Butlins, HMP Glasgow. It was meant cost about £100 million. Swinney and the SNP have their priorities all wrong. #FMQs
Tory leader @RussellFindlay1: "Taxpayers want every single pound spent on the best possible schools and hospitals - not the best possible prisons. This is baffling to people in the real world." #FMQs

🔶 The LibDems backed it. 🥀 Labour waived it through. 💙 Only the @ScotTories opposed the SNP and their tax-raising budget.
Only the Scottish Conservatives are standing up to the cosy left-wing consensus and their tax-raising budget
