EU Funding and SNP Ministers
Do you want to explain to me why the snp are responsible for usual rollover to the next year not being possible because of Brexit. The rest of the uk was similarly affected. Every country has undrawn funding year end as it’s matched funding for private/academic projects

A tiresome blabbermouth on social media tries to defend SNP ministers whose incompetence is resulting in Scotland returning hundreds of millions of EU money intended for key economic and anti-poverty projects.
To add insult to injury the performance of SNP ministers is much worse than that of ministers in other parts of the UK.
Yes, but this has been known about for years and the position in Scotland is far worse than the rest of the UK of course.

SNP Incompetence Hits New, Higher Heights (June 03, 2024)
Bombshell report by Kieran Andrews in the Sunday Times which highlights a new level of incompetence from highly paid Scottish ministers.
"SNP ministers have been accused of “negligence on a remarkable scale” after it emerged they are set to hand back £450 million of EU money they failed to spend on key economic and anti-poverty projects."Scotland is expected to return 28 per cent of the European structural and investment funding it received in the past six years having failed to allocate the cash.
"By comparison, Wales is on course to return 9 per cent of its money, England 6 per cent and Northern Ireland 2 per cent."
