    Well, good for you.. I think ? Your opinion. But you'll be hearing a lot more about them regardless if you hate them or not. Thems the breaks in politics.

    Great.

    So what is the point of the SNP at a national level? No referendum "for a generation", FFA is clearly a pipedream. What do they plan to achieve at a national level beyond sowing hatred and division?

    Although yes they have not kept up with the increase of % spending on the NHS Scotland still spends more per head that England .... England have just closed the gap a bit that's all

    Didn't they also fail to spend the money allocated to them by quite a considerable margin? I'm sure that's what HAMISH's post said.

    Yes I think they did ... But unlike labour who returned their underspend back to their WM overlords the SG kept it for the people of Scotland

    Is that because the SNP consider that the Scottish people deserve their poor health and don't want to waste any money on trying to improve it ?

    Better to spend it on the children of the rich and member of Holyrood ?

    To take part fully in the democratic process in Westminster, as repeatedly requested by the three unionist parties during the successful NO campaign.

    Her stated aim is more for Scotland
    Their role at Westminster is more for Scotland.

    They certainly don't want fairness and equality for all the people of the Union but more for the Scots.
