Letters to the press, 09/6/22: “The much-vaunted alcohol pricing initiative of Nicola Sturgeon’s SNP, like so many other of their key projects, has been declared a failure.

However, if he wanted to see a nation with crumbling infrastructure and an inflated public sector ruled by a single party with disastrously socialistic policies led by a long-serving leader who has mismanaged the economy, he could have stayed in Scotland.”
