Scotland performs ... or is it just spin and bluster?

Commenting on the launch of the Scottish Government’s ‘Scotland Performs’ website, where the Scottish Government judges Scotland’s economic performance, Liberal Democrat Shadow Finance Secretary, Tavish Scott MSP, said,

“The Scottish Government cannot be judge and jury about its own performance. As it has no independent monitoring this website amounts to nothing more than government propaganda.

“The people of Scotland will decide whether this Government is achieving its economic targets, not a load of SNP spin and bluster.”

Personally, I'd go for the spin and bluster explanation!
