  • SCOTTISH Tory leader Douglas Ross has announced he will be standing in the General Election on July 4.
    He held an emergency press conference this morning, hours after his party colleague David Duguid - currently in hospital - revealed he’d been blocked from standing in a new seat which overlaps Mr Ross’s Moray patch.

    The only thing that matters is the defeat of all SNP candidates. They thrive in creating division and their only priority is to destroy the United Kingdom. Today of all days we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice 80 years ago. We will always be better together; united as one.

      SNP give every kid born in scotland free university, every pensioner and student free bus travel, and everybody free prescriptions - Scottish folk are so much better off with SNP in charge - tories would take it all away and pocket the funds

    Dross has been paid £11,490.57 for 31 matches in the 2022-23 season. Yet he expects the British taxpayer to pay for his traveling cost to every match.

    After dumping David Duguid, conservatives central office put out a call for interested qualified candidates late on Wednesday to put in an application by the following morning and be in a position to attend a selection committee meeting in the constituency the on the Thursday evening.
    How many applications were received? How many applicants were called to interview on the Thursday evening. How was it possible to announce that Douglas Ross was the preferred candidate hours before the deadline for applications?

    Backing him for a london seat won't really impact NHS north of the border since that's a devolved power, something that westminster lapdog should know having been an MSP. Unless the implication is that sunak wants to run roughshod over devolution and force the private partnership (privatisation) onto scotland so they suffer the same as the rest of the UK.
