0:00:07 > 0:00:11This May, there are elections for the Scottish Parliament.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14Scotland needs a strong opposition,
0:00:14 > 0:00:16someone to hold the SNP to account
0:00:16 > 0:00:18and stand up for a strong Scotland
0:00:18 > 0:00:20as part of a strong United Kingdom.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25So what about Ruth Davidson's Scottish Conservatives?
0:00:25 > 0:00:28You'd be surprised what people think.
0:00:28 > 0:00:32The main issue is actually the threat of a one-party state
0:00:32 > 0:00:35and I believe that Ruth Davidson and the Scottish Conservatives
0:00:35 > 0:00:38have what it takes to actually challenge the SNP.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41Things are changing.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44In the last few months, both Labour and the Lib Dems have said
0:00:44 > 0:00:48they will allow their candidates to back independence if they want.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51People have noticed.
0:00:51 > 0:00:56I voted Labour all of my adult life and I got kind of disillusioned
0:00:56 > 0:01:00with them not making a stand, as such, for Scotland to be in the UK.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02I know the likes of Ruth Davidson,
0:01:02 > 0:01:05she's making a big stand for it, and I know you can trust her word.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09She will stand up for Scotland to remain part of the United Kingdom,
0:01:09 > 0:01:10and that's why, from now on,
0:01:10 > 0:01:13I'll definitely be voting Scottish Conservative.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15And there's another thing.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18This year, the Scottish Parliament starts taking power
0:01:18 > 0:01:21over the amount of tax you pay
0:01:21 > 0:01:24and, all over Scotland, people are looking to the Scottish Conservatives
0:01:24 > 0:01:27to stand up for family finances.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Currently, times are tough.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31With tax powers being devolved to the Scottish Parliament,
0:01:31 > 0:01:34we need a party in Scotland who's going to put family finances first.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37That's why I'll be voting for the Scottish Conservatives.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40So that's what people are saying.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42The Scottish Conservatives are listening.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47There are many reasons why people, perhaps for the first time,
0:01:47 > 0:01:50are looking at the Scottish Conservatives this May.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51For me, it's simple.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Most Scots just want to put
0:01:53 > 0:01:55the division of the last few years behind us.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Most people just want the country to get on,
0:01:58 > 0:02:02and most workers want to see their pay packets protected
0:02:02 > 0:02:05when new tax powers come to Holyrood.
0:02:05 > 0:02:06With your support,
0:02:06 > 0:02:08we can make this happen.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10I'll hold the SNP to account.
0:02:10 > 0:02:15I will fight to ensure we're not dragged back to a second referendum,
0:02:15 > 0:02:19and I'll work to make sure your family finances are protected.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24It's time for the country to find a better way forward for Scotland
0:02:24 > 0:02:28and you can achieve this by voting Scottish Conservative.
