Another Defeat.


The Scottish Government being defeated on key aspects of its policy is starting to lose its novelty.

"The Scottish Government last night suffered a setback in its plans to introduce a local income tax. MSPs backed Tory calls for any future Bill to allow MSPs to consider a range of options for replacing the council tax. These include a land value tax, a local income tax with variable rates, reforming the council tax, as well as the government's own plans for a centrally set local income tax."
