Good morning, and thank you for joining us. We have a cost of living crisis that is being made worse by an energy crisis, but we also have a climate crisis.
You mentioned NHS Highland and, if there is no dominance of attending work or living in the central belt, a positive knock-on effect might be that Scotland’s remote and rural communities are made more accessible and more attractive places for people to live and work.
Why is the Government prioritising people who can already afford a home and people who want to buy a home over those without somewhere safe to live? That is quite an unfair assessment, if I may say so.
The challenge for Scotland is to continue to be attractive and to give people who come here a positive experience of living here, whether they continue to live here or do so temporarily.
As such, we are clear that the UK Government is playing with the lives of the people of Scotland and, indeed, the lives of people in the rest of the United Kingdom who depend upon these life-saving products.
