“ The importance of education is ingrained in Scottish history. ”
Equality and prosperity shouldn't be seen as enemies of each other, but as partners. One reinforces the other.
~ Nicola Sturgeon
I am a social democrat - I believe in pursuing greater equality and tackling social justice - but... you can't do that unless you have got a strong economy, unless you have got a vibrant business base earning the wealth that makes that possible.
True gender equality in Scotland - and elsewhere - is still some way off.
My pledge to you is that the SNP will put women and gender equality right at the heart of the Westminster agenda.
