Businesses back SNP for growth

Colour me amazed. The Times reports something vaguely positive about the Scottish government. Although I suspect this was simply necessary to critique #Starmer, #Sarwar and #Labour.

Having said that, businesses that favour ‘Reform’ as a party for growth are either deluded or taking the piss. So the survey is probably useless.

Meantime this has driven the haters mad in the comments.

‘The survey also revealed a stark difference in perception between the Scottish and UK governments. Nearly half (48 per cent) of respondents believe the Scottish government is concerned with the needs of businesses in Scotland, compared with just 33 per cent who feel the same about the UK government.
Scott Edgar, the senior research manager at The Diffley Partnership, said: “These results show that the SNP is seen as the party best placed to support business growth and investment in Scotland, albeit by a small margin. The drop in support for Scottish Labour suggests business has grown more cautious about their approach over the last 12 months.”’
