Should i hold off for new right to buy?

hi everyone.just trying to see if anyone can help with a curiosity i have.we have the right to buy our council house in glasgow and have started the ball rolling but was interested to see the pm talking about making the discount for this scheme bigger and has now made me wonder whether we should put our plans on hold to see what comes out of this.im wondering whether this would only apply in england or whether it would also apply to us north of the border.would be gutted if we bought our home now then a few months down the road could have had it cheaper.any ideas?thanks

    Housing is devolved so Cameron has no power over what happens north of the border. The SNP are very much against Right To Buy and have scrapped it for new tenants and for those who live in pressured areas by passing the Housing Act of 2010.
  • damn lol was really hoping this applies to me.
