One pence Scottish Tax Rise to Prevent Savage Cuts to Services

To reverse their decision not to implement a 1 pence tax rise Which would raise almost £500 million to finance crucial local services .

Why is this important?

The tax rise would mean better off people would pay significantly more than those on lower and middle wage levels. Those on £150,000 would pay an extra £1,500 per year, those on £30,000 around £140 a year.
And it would raise almost £500m to invest in services currently being cut to the bone or abolished
