Free everything, 4% rise for NHS staff, double child benefit, an interim monkey to families. It's like a magic money orchard up there!

Scotland only has one destiny. It isn't a viably economic entity so will always rely on subsidies (English or EU) unless they learn to live without all the freebies.

SNP Our most ambitious policy agenda yet
If re-elected, we will double our Scottish Child Payment - hailed as “game-changing” by charities - from £10 to £20 per week for each eligible child.
We’ve also committed to extending free school meals - breakfasts and lunches - to all primary school pupils, in all classes, all year round.
And we’re ramping up our ambition further still, with our pledge to provide free laptops for every child.
Our vision of rebuilding Scotland is bursting with confidence:
Doubling the Scottish Child Payment.
Rewarding our NHS staff with at least a 4% pay rise.
Nationalising Scotland's railways
Introducing a National Care Service.
A digital device for every school pupil.
Scrapping council tax for all those under 22.
£50 million women’s business centre.
£100 million digital boost scheme.
£20 million rural entrepreneur fund.
At least one few fast track cancer diagnostic service in every health board area.
Young Person’s Guarantee.
Delivering 100,000 more affordable homes - with 70% for social rent.
And that’s only the start. Over the next days and weeks, we’ll be setting out our plans in more detail, and our manifesto will brim with limitless ambition for Scotland.
Our campaign is centred on optimism and hope for the future.
We’re delivering progress in government despite limited powers and Tory cuts. Just think of how much more we could do with the full powers of independence.

Feel all you English nationalists need to read up a wee bit more. Scotland's military force? The armed forced do not "belong" to England. I could cite many more examples, but Jackdaw's disparaging remarks sum the English up. No I don't hate the English, I just want Scotland to be in charge of its own destiny.
