:02:54. > :02:58.warships, would start here this year. But that is still in the
:02:59. > :03:01.design phase. There was per team promised, that was revised down to
:03:02. > :03:05.eat, but the union is saying that they believe that this deal will not
:03:06. > :03:11.be cut on that contract until December next year. And they say the
:03:12. > :03:16.small patrol vessels being built just will not sustain the workforce.
:03:17. > :03:21.They are heading to London next week for some spirited lobbying. We are
:03:22. > :03:26.going to speak to the government, we will speak to any politician and any
:03:27. > :03:29.party to help us with this. We are going to compete and fight with the
:03:30. > :03:33.government. They need to bring these contracts further and closer to us.
:03:34. > :03:37.The need to bring them closer, to help us, because it is not just

:04:44. > :04:50.for courageous campaign events but even by her standards, suddenly it
:04:51. > :04:58.gets a bit too... Cowboy! Hands up, Ruth! Watch yourself.
:04:59. > :05:00.Back with the little Buffalo, Ruth Davidson says higher tax would be a
:05:01. > :05:06.discouraging word and would drive talent away. If we put a tax of up
:05:07. > :05:09.in Scotland, we will drive letter in a native talent, who will go down

:05:21. > :05:26.plans are harmonious. They favour of more money for primary health care
:05:27. > :05:37.but they plan a 1% tax increase to fund education. I think it is
:05:38. > :05:39.nonsense that we do not use our powers to make the Scottish
:05:40. > :05:42.education one of the best in the world. Of the Scottish education is
:05:43. > :05:48.competitive, I think people will come here. Labour's Alex shows his
:05:49. > :05:51.skills on the green. Labour backs increased social care and dismisses
:05:52. > :05:59.claims that their penny on income tax, plus a 50% top rate, would harm
:06:00. > :06:01.the economy. Scotland needs to remain competitive. The way to do
:06:02. > :06:05.that is to invest in Scotland's greatest asset, its people. We need
:06:06. > :06:11.to invest in skills and education, training, apprenticeships. Go! In
:06:12. > :06:18.Cooper, Nicola Sturgeon this is a testing challenge as she promotes
:06:19. > :06:23.plans to help young people. The SNP would reverse a planned tax cut for
:06:24. > :06:26.higher earners but would leave the standard and operate alone. We will
:06:27. > :06:29.not raise taxes or lower and middle income earners, because I do not
:06:30. > :06:32.think that would be a further sign. But they will not give a tax cut to
:06:33. > :06:37.higher rate taxpayers, because that would not be there either. So are
:06:38. > :06:40.tax proposals after. They have public services firmly in mind but
:06:41. > :06:47.also the need to grow our economy as well. The Greens plan more tax for
:06:48. > :06:52.the winners but a top rate of 60%. Tax is not the only reason people

:08:44. > :08:45.then the North Sea ghosts, chilly with a breeze coming in from the
:08:46. > :08:49.North. Here is a closer look at
:08:50. > :08:54.mid-afternoon, the warmest part of the day. Out of the breeze and
:08:55. > :08:58.catches on his bill, it will be OK. Further north, it will be cool. If
:08:59. > :09:03.you catch a shower and three that are is digging in, it will be quite
:09:04. > :09:06.chilly. For Shetland, frequent showers will make it feel more like
:09:07. > :09:10.the end of winter rather than the middle of spring. Towards the
:09:11. > :09:17.evening, a bit of rain in the north-west but elsewhere dry. Clear
:09:18. > :09:21.skies also. He cold night Saturday to Sunday. Here is the college art.
:09:22. > :09:25.That will indicate how cold it is going to be by the blues on the map.
:09:26. > :09:30.Lows of minus four. A widespread frost. A chilly start to Sunday. If
:09:31. > :09:35.you're hitting side of the border to take part in the London Marathon, it
:09:36. > :09:38.will be a cool one. Chilly for spectators. I pressure out west.
:09:39. > :09:41.Still those northerly winds continuing. Sunday, a few showers as
:09:42. > :09:43.we start. Fairly cloudy but through the course of the day, the showers
:09:44. > :09:47.tend to ease off. Still that the course of the day, the showers
:09:48. > :09:51.northerly breeze but if anything, temperatures up a notch. The best of
