Where is Scotland heading this week?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : But Offord also pointed out that he started from a debt background in Glasgow and has worked his way up to the extent that he paid £45m in taxes, employed hundreds of people, and made a net contribution to the society.
45% : Among Scotland's political class it is the accepted doctrine that they want taxes to be fair, they want to raise more money, and they want everyone to pay less.
40% : The fact that someone like Liang has the right to vote, but a native Scot, who paid taxes in Scotland for 40 years, is not, is yet another illustration of the collective political suicide that seems to be happening in Scotland
37% : But in so doing they are ignoring deeper issues like the falling birthrate, the exodus of talented young (and older) Scots to other countries and the issue of abortion.
22% : Scotland's population is about 600,000 short of where it should be - ironically, the number of babies killed in Scotland by abortion since the 1967 Abortion Act is around 650,000.
