SNP WORKING FOR SCOTLAND AS BROWN'S BAD WEEK WORSENS.

SNP Westminster Leader Angus Robertson has highlighted the SNP’s continued focus on building Scottish success two years in to Government in stark contrast to the continuing collapse of Gordon Brown’s Labour party. Mr Robertson described the past seven days as ‘the worst of Brown’s beleaguered premiership’ which started with figures showing a big poll boost for the SNP last Friday. May 3rd marks the 2nd anniversary of the SNP’s success in the 2007 Scottish elections which saw Labour lose power in Scotland for the first time. Commenting, Mr Robertson said: “People want action on jobs and recovery and to see politicians working to get through these tough times, not squabbling within their own party and stabbing each other in the back. “That’s why as we reach the second anniversary of the SNP’s success in the 2007 elections we are focussed on meeting the needs and aspirations of people across Scotland, delivering jobs and prospects for the future. “At a time when strong leadership is needed last week’s YouGov poll shows Scots are turning to the SNP and Alex Salmond for that leadership while Gordon Brown and his Labour party have lost all credibility. “This must be the worst week of Gordon Brown’s beleaguered premiership. It started with the fantastic poll results showing the SNP soaring over Labour and is ending with open mutiny on the Labour benches and talk of defections and resignations. “With five weeks to go until the European elections, the SNP have what it takes to give the people of Scotland a strong voice in Europe, to protect jobs and to work for recovery while from the Downing Street bunker Gordon Brown is watching the Labour party fall apart.”
