Policy Positions
Scotland's Future
Support independence and full powers of a sovereign nation, while pressing ahead with change using devolved powers now.
NHS & Health
Introduce a £15 per hour minimum wage for social care, a network of free walk-in mental health support hubs, and invest in the NHS workforce.
Housing
Permanent rent controls, a higher tax rate on landlords' rental income, and stronger renters' rights to tackle the housing emergency.
Climate & Transport
Get Scotland back on track to deliver net zero by 2045 with a coordinated climate action delivery programme across transport, energy, farming and buildings.
Tax & Public Spending
Tax wealth rather than work. More progressive income tax, higher taxes on second and empty homes, and new taxes on private jets and mansions.
Economy & Jobs
Jobs in a green economy — clean industries, care, childcare and community wealth. Move away from expensive and volatile oil and gas.
Education & Childcare
Universal free childcare guarantee from 6 months until children start school, with significant investment in the childcare workforce.
Social Issues
Strong LGBT+ rights advocacy. Revisit NHS policy changes made as a result of the Cass Review and publish a gender-affirming care action plan to bring down waiting times.
