Scottish Parliament Election 2016: 08/04/2016 Party Election Broadcasts: Scottish Green Party

At this election, we're voting for the kind of country

we want Scotland to be.

Voting for a parliament that over the next five years can build

the better Scotland we all know is possible.

We can build a fairer, more just country for each of us

and a more prosperous future for us all.

But a better Scotland needs a bolder Holyrood

and for a bolder Holyrood, we need more green voices,

because the Scottish Greens are the only party with the policies

to make it happen.

Scotland can guarantee a future for our young people.

Too many face a future with no jobs and no opportunities.

Green MSPs will invest in their future with a guarantee

of apprenticeships or free education for all school leavers.

Scotland can provide decent homes for all of us.

We urgently need new housing and improvements to existing homes.

With more Green MSPs, we can build 12,000 homes and social housing

each year and control private rents to make housing affordable.

Scotland can unlock the power in our communities.

Let's scrap the unfair Council Tax

and replace it with a modern land and property tax.

This will open up derelict land for housing and community use,

tackle wealth inequality and raise money locally

for essential services.

Scotland can ban fracking once and for all.

The Scottish Greens won the devolution of power over fracking.

We'll use that power to ensure that unconventional gas extraction

does not take place in Scotland.

Scotland can care for all our people.

There's a huge gap between the value of care

and the support carers receive.

We will fight for a living wage plus of ?9 an hour for paid carers

and increase the Carer's Allowance by 50%.

Feasgar math.

Scotland can connect everyone.

Green MSPs will link people with the places and information

they need and push the Scottish government to deliver

fibre broadband to 95% of Scotland by March 2018.

Scotland can create new jobs for our country.

As industries closed, so the communities they served

have been left behind.

Greens seek to rebalance Scotland's economy

and support workers with a plan for over 200,000 new jobs

in industries we need.

We all believe Scotland can be this better country for everyone

who lives here and for a better Scotland we need a bolder Holyrood.

The team of Green candidates across Scotland brings integrity,

experience and a record of achievement

in the Scottish Parliament and across the country.

We have the right ideas for the times we live in.

The right policies for Scotland and for our world.

The more Green MSPs you elect on May 5th,

the bolder our Parliament and the more we can achieve

to build a better Scotland.

Vote Green on the 5th May.
