Tory betrayal

Last September many people warned of the consequences if Scotland voted No. People were advised that the most likely outcome of voting No would be a minimum of five years of rapacious, austere Tory rule.

Specific warnings were given that the Tories were going to gut benefits for working poor in order to transfer wealth to the 1 per cent, also that the Tories were planning to outlaw the right to strike.

The Budget, and the Tories’ attack on the right to strike, vindicates those warnings.
