Protecting Scotland’s Education

Last month, the SNP voted for hundreds of millions of pounds of cuts – and against our fairer plan for #?KidsNotCuts.

We took the word to the streets.

Policy Q&A

Given the choice between using our powers, or making cuts to our children’s future, we choose to use our powers.

Scottish Labour would use the tax system in a fair way, raising the Scottish rate of income tax by 1p, to avoid making cuts to local schools and local communities.

We stand today as a Labour party that will go into the election against austerity, a Labour party that is offering a positive alternative, a Labour party that supports ambition and aspiration. Vote Labour to break from Tory cuts, and stop the SNP passing those cuts onto our children.
