Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: HS2 is considered a UK-Infrastructure project. So Scotland will pay 10%ish of the price of HS2, with no benefit. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: HS2 has its pros and cons but in its form of London-Birmingham which is not economically effective — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
CJ: Look at Edinburgh Trams for inspiration to HS2. Ah yes, the trams you and your party forced through at Holyrood. Thnx for reminding us — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
BW: Against. Spend it on education. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Next question is on HS2 (from a person who isn't in favour) — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Ackland against them too, and says they give Labour a chance to go start an illegal war with whoever they feel like. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
CJ: It is a matter for my conscience so I would vote against it. YOU DIDNT TAKE THAT OPPORTUNITY A FEW WEEKS AGO THOUGH DID YOU — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
CJ: Too serious an issue here. So the Labour Party takes the view that we can't multi-laterally rid the world of WMDs without them. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
CJ: I'm a member of CND. But you didn't vote against Trident. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Thumping re-sounding applause for Alan Brown there. Yay. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: Tony Blair said Trident is a status-symbol. They're not a deterrent, but an incentive for other countries to get them. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: Abolish Trident, and expand the navy as I've said. But then we can improve housing, healthcare and education and many other things! — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: I'm against it and have written a piece to Scottish CND. I'm glad Nicola Sturgeon says No to Trident is a red line in Gov support — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Next Question is "where do you stand on trident and how would you vote if there was a debate on it" — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Cathy and Alan are both thoroughly in favour of the Living Wage. But why did Labour not implement at any point from 1997 to 2010 — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Brian Whittle is interrupted by someone who refers to Conservative policy ahead of the 1997 election. Atmosphere getting a bit heated — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
The man has angered everyone it seems, but *thank God* Alan hasn't taken the bite. Yay! — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Alan Brown gives a great answer from someone who clearly was ill-informed as well as a prime SNP hater. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Mr Ackland says that all four candidates are in favour of people being paid what they deserve. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Question from an SNP Basher about not supporting a living wage — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Brian Whittle: I agree with Mr SNP that Mr Ackland's comments were a bit close to the bone (in relation to health tourism) — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: Therefore, Scotland needs its own immigration system so that skilled immigrants we need here are not blocked by UK Gov. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: UK Gov won't let in immigrants that Scotland needs because of a skills shortage here, just because they think they'll live in England — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: As someone who has an immigrant as a wife, then I guess you could say I am in favour of immigration! *more applause* — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: There's too many stereotypes there, and your answer about Health Tourism, Rod, is disappointing to say the least. *applause* — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Ackland is toeing around saying people only move to the UK for a benefits system — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
Next question is on immigration. Missed Cathy's answer but Ackland says immigration is needed in one part of the country and not in another — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: We should be making sure that the army is furthered educated to combat mental health problems whilst people are on active duties. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: A friend from Newmlins I grew up with was discharged from the TA with mental health problems. Sadly he was left with no support. — PolitiTweet.org
Alan Brown MP @AlanBrownSNP
AB: Agree with Cathy that there should be a veteran's register (think that was the quote, hard to hear in here) — PolitiTweet.org
