A report published by YouGov has revealed an increase in disappointment over the SNP’s handling of vital issues.
The report includes survey results from numerous polls aimed at gauging how well or badly the public believe the SNP government is doing in handling education, the NHS, justice, the economy and policing issues.
Every question asked about the SNP’s governing performance revealed an increase in disappointment over its handlings.
48 per cent of respondents felt the SNP managed the NHS ‘fairly badly’ or ‘very badly’ – a five per cent increase from when previously asked in November last year.
The issue of justice also recorded significantly negative results – with 39 per cent of respondents viewing the SNP’s performance as not being good enough.
The report shows the need for a Scottish Government that spends its every waking hour improving standards across the country, and the Scottish Conservatives are now calling for the SNP to start focusing its time on tackling the real issues people are worried about.
Scottish Conservative chief whip John Lamont said:
“This report makes the growing scepticism of the SNP’s ability to effectively run the country clear.
“The SNP has simply brushed aside so many important issues they’ve described as a priority in its bid to break up Britain.
“It shows that behind a government whose clear raison d’être is independence, is a government that has done next to nothing to improve the many issues Scotland faces.
“Nicola Sturgeon needs to take a very clear message from this report – people don’t want independence, they want a government that is fully focused on improving issues that clearly need addressed.”
