Letters / Failed to deliver
A peerie note to Mr Mowat, Danus’ man in Orkney (Two side to every argument; SN, 21/04/15)
All the things that you say do not matter, as this is an election to Westminster and what a SNP MP could deliver for Orkney and Shetland.
Well maybe you could explain why the current SNP MSPs for Orkney and Shetland have done nothing about the ferry fares, the underfunding of education, the theft of the housing support grant, etc etc.
They have failed to deliver while part of a majority government at Hollyrood, so why should we think they will deliver for Orkney and Shetland at Westminster?
