Its great to see Struan Stevenson MEP campaigning hard on behalf of Scottish interests in Europe in particular his robust defence of our farmers and business who produce such excellent locally grown produce. His comments on labelling are essential for consumers to know exactly what they are buying.

Soft touch justice by this Labour Government is getting out of control and putting members of the public at serious risk. Whether its Labour or the inadequate policies of the SNP administration in Scotland all across the UK we see examples of mind boggling stupidity.
