Kidd is 48 and lives in Partick. He is a trade unionist and is
Organiser of the SNP Trade Union Group. He works as a Parliamentary
Assistant to Sandra White MSP.
Bill says: "I believe that every
citizen of Scotland should be treated equally. Pensioners shouldn't
have to worry about means-testing; Hospitals should be well-staffed,
clean and as local as possible; Tax should reflect the ability to pay;
War should always be the last resort, never the first.
"Therefore I
believe that Scotland must be a normal INDEPENDENT country, and voting
SNP at every election is the only way to achieve that." |

Commenting after the Conservative manifesto launch, Bill Kidd, SNP candidate for Glasgow Central said:
"Despite the tartan trimmings the Tories remain fundamentally
anti-Scottish. Already in this campaign British Tories have threatened
to slash Scottish spending and attacked Scotland’s parliament.
“The last thing Glasgow needs is for decision making to be
recentralized, and for vital health services to be further cut. The
Tories presided over the decline of heavy industry in Scotland, and the
resulting unemployment still mires parts Glasgow Central in poverty.†|
