Social inclusion

[edit | edit source]

People in Scotland care about the collective state of their country. They want wellfunded public services. They want poverty reduced. They want fairness in how resources are raised and shared. Many are willing to contribute themselves, especially when they believe the system is fair and the wealthiest are doing their share. Sharing our Wealth, Wellbeing Economy Alliance Scotland, March 2026
