Election letters 2019 / Real influence?
Isn’t the SNP’s claim that electing a nationalist MSP would give Shetland “real influence in Holyrood” just an admission that Maree Todd MSP doesn’t provide that?
In which case, why would anyone in Shetland think that Tom Wills, as a junior SNP backbencher obligated to vote as his party tells him, would have any influence when a Scottish Government minister doesn’t?
