Sewage dumping in Scotland is governed by 30-year-old rules which the government's own watchdog says are failing. We don't even know the true scale of the problem because so few sites are monitored. The Scottish Government need to start taking the sewage crisis more seriously.

The SNP’s promise to close the attainment gap lies in ruins. By Nicola Sturgeon’s own yardstick, her party has betrayed a whole generation of young people from poorer backgrounds. We urgently need a plan to drive up education performance and improve outcomes for young people.

The SNP government is rewarding their water company for failure. Scottish Water are paying out enormous bonuses to bosses who are presiding over filthy sewage dumping and hitting customers with bigger bills.

The hardworking staff at CalMac have been let down by an SNP government that broke their promise to deliver new ferries on time and on budget. This has created a grim new norm for the local communities who rely on ferries, from losing business to missing hospital appointments.

Skye, Lochaber and Badenoch is a top target seat for the Scottish Liberal Democrats. We won the equivalent seat at Westminster last year. Scotland deserves better and people in the Highlands know that our hardworking champion Andrew Baxter is best placed to beat the SNP.

We are proud to announce that Adam Harley will be 1st on our West Scotland regional list!. The people of West Scotland deserve a local champion like Adam in parliament. Next May, they can make that happen by backing the Scottish Lib Dems on the peach regional ballot paper.

Scottish ministers might talk a good game about a gentler and kinder bureaucracy but what carers actually want is to get paid on time. We need action, not excuses, for Scotland’s unpaid carers.

In England, when water companies dump sewage more often than allowed, they get huge fines. Sewage dumping in Scotland is governed by 30-year-old rules which the environmental watchdog says are failing. It seems there are never any consequences for sewage dumping under the SNP.

The SNP have a tired, toxic and, ultimately, broken relationship with the north of Scotland. We are on the cusp of changing that: everyone in the Highlands can vote for strong local champions next May by backing the Scottish Liberal Democrats.

Skye, Lochaber and Badenoch is a top target seat for the Scottish Liberal Democrats. More and more people are switching to us because they see that we are focused on the issues that matter and they know that our candidate, Andrew Baxter, is best placed to beat the SNP.
