Description (if any) | Scottish Conservative & Unionist |
My name is Isobel Johnson, I live at Symbister, Whalsay. Our business is retail. I do office work, clean toilets etc. I am on the congregational board of our local kirk. I am very old. I stand as a conservative candidate for the North Mainland, for the following:-
- I am backing Britain and its accountable parliament.
- I am backing the council. I want to stop Holyrood taking more powers. I want to stop its centralising policies.
- I am backing the fishing industry. I want Britain to have control of our coastal waters to the 200-mile limit in accordance with international law. I want to stop Nicola Sturgeon giving them away to Europe.
- No more referendum (at least for a generation).
Clement Attlee once said, “The referendum has only too often been the instrument of nazism and fascism.” Hitler had 4 prior to WWII.
