At First Minister’s Questions, Russell Findlay called out the SNP for their unrealistic and unaffordable net zero agenda.
📺 Watch 👇
The SNP have missed their eco targets for years. Their expert advisers now confirm that the only way to reach net zero by 2045 is by imposing radical and financially devastating policies.
If John Swinney sticks to his target, he has to be honest with the people of Scotland about the price he expects them to pay.
People would be forced to ditch petrol cars, rip out boilers and change their diets.
Farmers would be expected to get rid of cattle. Scotland’s oil and gas industry would cease to exist. All of this to be paid for through higher taxes and household bills.
None of this makes sense to people in the real world.
It’s just not realistic or affordable.
John Swinney should stop making promises he knows the SNP cannot keep.
