Election letters 2019 / Shetland won’t be fooled

In relation to your story SNP candidate backs cheaper cabins and more ferry sailings (SN, 7/8/19), we’ve heard it all before.

Every election the SNP come with promises to sort out our outdated transport system but do nothing about it.

I know what the SNP supporters will say, that we don’t vote for them but it’s obvious they as the government are aware of these issues yet do nothing about it.

It’s almost like they’re telling us that if they don’t vote for them, we’re not getting change. Political blackmail, and Shetland won’t be fooled.
