No, it hasn't changed. SNP are good for small business.Originally posted by Zero Liability View PostI've seen little from the SNP to suggest that. I may not particularly like them, but they don't seem as hostile to it as Labour. Or has that changed?
SNP launch manifesto to help business thrive | Scottish National Party
SEEK TO ENSURE SMALL BUSINESSES ARE PAID ON TIME. Small business face an increasing volume of late payments. We will seek to put prompt payment into law for small businesses and push any UK Government to meet payment deadlines.
CONTINUE THE SMALL BUSINESS BONUS. We will continue the Small Business through the next Scottish Parliament, making Scotland the most competitive location for business in the UK.
MAKE THE CASE FOR A TARGETED APPROACH TO BUSINESS TAXATION WITH TARGETED CHANGES TO TAX ALLOWANCES. A long-term competitive advantage would be created for our economy by using targeted changes in tax allowancesComment

There is nothing business friendly about this at all. Payment terms are very hard to enforce and they wont bother. the tax system needs to be simplified not made more complicated. With all their spending plans the economy will plunge itself further into debt which in itself will ruin business. If they were brave they would would slash corporation tax and rates. This is all weasel words designed to fool idiots like you who are wealthy and think that the SNP are your friendsOriginally posted by Batcher View PostNo, it hasn't changed.

Here's what I was referring to:
What the political parties plan for contractors :: Contractor UK
Labour noticeably absent. 3 of them quite positive. 2 fairly bleh.
That said, it's all promises, in some cases very vague. However, in an SNP/Labour arrangement it's quite obvious it'll be union-backed Labour that'll be the worse of the two.Comment

No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.Comment

I take it from your reply that you have no idea what the Small Business Bonus is ? You've just dismissed it as not business friendly and you have no idea what it is, you thick 10% leaching c**t. Do you want to know what it is ? Probably not, because it doesn't suit your argument.Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostThere is nothing business friendly about this at all.
