Taxpayers to continue paying rent for Alba MPs who will no longer regularly travel to Westminster
Taxpayers will continue to pay for at least one London flat rented by Alba MPs no longer making the “routine sojourn” to London to represent their constituencies.
ALBA have projected their logo onto historic Scottish sites with less than 24 hours to go until polls open. It comes after Alex Salmond’s party projected the Alba logo onto the BBC Scotland building at Pacific Quay in Glasgow, ahead of a leaders’ debate they were not invited to participate in. Last night Alba released images of their logo showing on Edinburgh Castle, Stirling Castle and Dundee’s Caird Hall. Different polling companies have predicted varying levels of support for the party, which hopes to secure an independence “supermajority” by only fielding last candidates. Panelbase has consistently put support at about 6%, which would give the party a handful of MSPs, while others have been between 2-3%.
