Could Salmond be losing the Yes Vote


Alex Salmond, in his bid to win the vote for independence could be going too far with new policies that alienate the NHS and legal systems alike, and all those who support both systems.

People who were intending to vote yes at the 2014 referendum are now not sure and it is likely that many who were sitting on the fence have now moved to the no side, as new policies sweep through both the legal and medical systems.

The NHS is under fire, especially in Ayrshire and Arran with new proposals making 'care' less and less likely and forcing nurses to choose between helping the sick or doing paperwork. The legal system is having such a shuffle that many hundreds of lawyers and their staff face losing their jobs. Legal Aid is also changing to the point where only those who can pay it back will be allowed it - a system that means only the rich get fair representation.

This is not how you encourage people to vote yes for independence. If Salmond wishes to win the referendum he needs to stop what he is doing and take a long hard look at these terrible policies his party are putting in place.

On another note, I have written 3 books. 2 are part of a series set in Scoltand about the Sidhe, fairy folk. Available on kindle and in paperback:

The Island of the Mist is book 2

The Stone in the Sword is book 1

The 3rd book is an adult, sexy witchy werewolf/vampire story set in New York and featuring a strong female lead character, again available in kindle and paperback formats:

The Wolf, the Witch and the Coffin
