Ross Thomson (Aberdeen South) (Con)
You mentioned the lack of free-market forces. Do you agree with your shadow Chancellor when he says that he wants to overthrow capitalism and bring down Britain’s system of free enterprise? That would mean fewer jobs, less money for public services and untold damage to the Scottish economy. Do you agree with his position?
Mrs Anne Main (in the Chair)
Order. Please speak through the Chair. I do not agree with any of that. Ask the hon. Lady if she agrees with that.
