Scottish Conservative Party

The Scottish Conservative Party is a political party in Scotland that is part of the broader Conservative and Unionist Party in the UK. Founded in the 19th century, it supports free market policies, a strong national defense, and the union between Scotland and the rest of the UK. The party aims to appeal to voters who prioritize traditional values, economic growth, and limited government intervention. While historically dominant, its influence has waned in recent decades, with the Scottish National Party (SNP) gaining prominence. The Scottish Conservatives advocate for a pragmatic approach to governance and emphasize the importance of Scotland’s role within the UK.
