SNP STEP UP CAMPAIGN IN LAST 24 HOURS.


SNP SUCCESS WILL FORCE UK GOVERNMENT TO ACT

With just one day of campaigning left in the European elections, SNP
President and European candidate Ian Hudghton said the party was taking
nothing for granted as they continued to campaign across the country,
taking the SNP’s positive message of investment in jobs and recovery to
the people of Scotland.

Mr Hudghton added a vote for the SNP would "send a message" to Westminster
in advance of the SNP’s call for a General Election next week:

“Together, the people of Scotland and the SNP have what it takes to send a
message to Westminster and give Scotland a strong voice in Europe.

“SNP MPs in London have lodged a motion which will force the UK Parliament
to own up to the sorry state it has found itself in and go to the people
in a General Election.

"While the SNP Scottish Government is working for Scottish communities and
creating investment in jobs, training and new construction, the UK Labour
Government is limping from one scandal to another, totally obsessed with
itself.

"The whole Westminster system has ground to a halt. The only way to sort
this mess out is for Parliament to be dissolved and for the people to have
their say in a General Election.

“SNP success tomorrow will force the UK Government to act on key
Scottish demands - such as unlocking the £150m Fossil Fuel Levy – as well
as forcing the pace on an early General Election, and delivering a strong
Scottish voice in Europe.

“We have fought a positive campaign focused on Scottish jobs and recovery
but we are taking nothing for granted as we continue to take our message
to the people of Scotland right up until the poll.”
