This will be an opportunity for the people of the newly formed Constituency to vote for what they believe in and to elect who they wish to represent them at Holyrood. I hope to that both myself and the Scottish Conservatives will put forward a compelling case to secure your vote.
Scotland must stand up to the challenges that have been forced upon us by the economic mismanagement of the former Labour UK Government. In turn, the SNP Government has failed time and time again to deliver with their manifesto of broken promises.
It's time for the petty politics to be left at the front door of Holyrood. It's time for the Scottish Government to act in the national interest, not it's own partisan interest.
It's time for change and only the Scottish Conservatives can deliver this change for Scotland.
These thoughts are echoed by Annabel Goldie earlier today:
“I’m going to fight a positive and vigorous campaign.
“The Scottish Conservatives can now be judged on what we are doing, how we perform and what we have achieved, rather than by the false image and caricature of us painted by our detractors.
“Without our influence, Scotland would not have 1,000 more police, a council tax freeze, lower business rates for our smallest firms, and more help for care of the elderly at home.
“From the fringe of Scottish politics we are back in the mainstream. For the first time since 1997, we are central to how Scotland is run.
“The Scottish Conservatives are delivering for Scotland and I look forward to putting our case to the people in May.”
