Thread: I Am Confused

  1. #1

    Default I Am Confused

    I recently heard the Scottish Government calling for the UK Government to send additional funding to support various sectors of the Scottish economy as the Scottish Government have no more funds.

    Then I read the Audit Scotland report and they say the Scottish Government have an underspend of £580 million.

    Are both parties wrong or is one misleading the public ?

    £580 million is a useful sum of money.

    Oh come on.

    The source of the information regarding the underspending was in stated in the thread.

    Every time Sturgeon appears on TV she complains that Westminster are not sending up enough funding and I don't blame her for trying. Drakeford has also adopted that line as well and you know it.

    Not good enough Gronnuck, first of all I did not accuse SG of "missing or hiding money" as the Tories may have.

    Secondly if I quoted or sent out links from media sources that are clearly biased to certain political parties you would no doubt be ridiculing, dismissing or deflecting the article as biased opinion.
