Earlier this month marked one year until the next Scottish Parliament election.

Scotland needs honest leadership

It was a moment to reflect not just on the past five years, but on 18 years of SNP government.

Around the same time the First Minister set out the SNP's final Programme for Government before the election.

But rather than more promises, people across the country are asking where is the delivery?

Across Scotland, the cost of living continues to bite.

Public services, from the NHS to our schools, are stretched to breaking point.

Communities have seen cuts to libraries, leisure centres, and essential council services. Promises have been made, headlines grabbed but delivery has repeatedly fallen short.
