Goldie: Scottish Conservatives will deliver again

Speaking on the start of the 100 day countdown to the Scottish Parliamentary election, Scottish Conservative leader Annabel Goldie MSP said:

"I fear that this election is going to be 100 days of vitriol between Alex Salmond and Iain Gray – senseless mudslinging. They both think that the campaign is all about them. It's not. It's all about Scotland.

"Scotland needs its politicians to stand up and tell it like it is. Hope for the future, but realism about today.

"This must be the election where common sense and straight talking win. I pledge to lead the Scottish Conservative campaign with a focus on the issues which matter to Scotland, and that is not the battle of egos of Salmond and Gray. This is not just about who gets the keys to Bute House, but who will deliver for Scotland, and who will hold the balance of power after May.

"Without the Scottish Conservatives we would not have 1,000 more police, a freeze in Council Tax, tax cuts for our smallest businesses or a new national drugs strategy. We have delivered – and we will again."
