Education: raw deal or making a little go a long way

When teachers have to buy pencils and jotters for school children, then we know that Glasgow City Council has lost the plot.  Spending hundreds of thousands on wasteful projects, your children are getting a raw deal.
Vote Scottish Christian Party for value for money - the little money available needs to be better spent.  The Scottish Christian Party campaign is an example of traditional Scottish thrift - making a little go a long way - something every housewife will have to do over the next few years.  Why shouldn’t the Government do the same?  Cuts are not the solution.

Jobs and the consumer

Not everyone has a job or is paying tax, but everyone is a consumer.  We have taken you, the consumer, to heart and the consumer is at the heart of our programme for recovery.

If you are a Christian and you voted Labour on the Regional List in Glasgow Region, then your vote counted for nothing towards a Regional MSP – all 78,838 votes were wasted votes. You would have been better giving this wasted vote to the Christian Party.  For the explanation see here.

Many Christians complain that they do not have a Party for which they can conscientiously vote.

It does not have to be this way.  On this page you will see a List of Scottish Christian Party candidates in your Region.

We are looking for Christians in your Region of Scotland who would like to engage in the political process. This can be any level of activity - from voting for us, to supporting us, attending meetings, speaking for us, or being a candidate. Whatever your talents and interests, there is something you can do for the Kingdom of Christ through the Scottish Christian Party. Please get in touch with us to find out more.

You may wish to have your name and telephone number listed on this page so that interested Christians can contact you, and you can discuss the way forward together.  If you wish to do so, or you have any other question, please get in touch with me by clicking here to send me an email.

For an explanation of how you can have a Christian Voice in the Scottish Parliament click here.

Scottish Parliament pipeline

Scottish Independence referendum Centralised Police Force? Consultation on redefinition of marriage to include same-sex partnerships

An anti-sectarianism Bill within six months, which Alex Salmond wanted rushed through the Scottish Parliament inside one week for the beginning of the football season, but which threatens freedom of speech unless modified

Islamic terror

Youcef Nadarkhani received a death sentence in Iran for apostasy (abandoning Islam - which he says he never followed). He is currently on trial in Rasht. He could be executed by hanging at any time. Over 50,000 people have already emailed the Iranian embassies around the world – add your voice to theirs and deliver Nadarkhani. SCP website details.

Stop homosexual 'marriage'

The Scottish Government consultation about redefining marriage to include homosexual couples has finished. The documentation is explained here. Christians are encouraged to write to their MSPs to register their opposition to any legislation along this line, and to write to the SNP Government to encourage them to drop this idea. We already have polygamy recognised by UK legislation. The SCP response to the SNP Government's consultation is available for download.

Re-elect or Resurrect?

Alex Salmond wanted to re-elect the SNP. We want to resurrect a Christian society in Scotland, and de-select the Lib Dems and the Greens.

Vision for Scottish recovery

We have a Vision for Scotland which develops the north's resources as a future driving force for Scottish productivity and trade.

Help for the small man

We will fight for the consumer, forgotten in this climate of spending cuts but rising prices. We propose a radical solution to consumer debt to help the consumer by forcing more prudent lending policies. It is too easy to hold consumers to ransom.
