Brian Smith, Glasgow South Scottish TUSC candidate: “Scottish TUSC are offering a 100% anti-austerity alternative on May 7. We utterly reject the savage austerity plans of the establishment parties. Neither do the austerity-lite promises from the SNP who, despite their words, have implemented billions in Tory cuts in Scotland since 2010 offer a real and consistent alternative.
“Scottish TUSC is offering total opposition to all austerity, public ownership not privatisation, a living minimum wage now of £10 an hour and the abolition of all anti-union laws. These unique policies are only widely available from TUSC and on Friday we’ll be unveiling our policy platform for Scotland.”
