BBC NEWS | Scotland | Socialists launch campaign

"The SSP is aiming for 10% of the vote and more seats this time round.

The Scottish Socialists would abolish the council tax, replacing it with a Scottish service tax for those earning more than £10,000 a year.

The party would introduce free school meals for all pupils.

And it proposes a maximum 35 hour week and a minimum wage of £7.32 an hour for public sector workers"
