If that's all the money she has, I don't really see the point in taking it away. The admin may cost more and it leavrs her with nothing. A small monthly payment might have been better.

I see that the SNP are no longer in the lead in Westminster polling.

Absolutely. Take a percentage of her income for a while.

Interesting moves in the Holyrood voting intentions with SNP up in constituency and down on lists.
The incompetence results on policy are a deep worry for them. The positive result on Covid shows the benefit of daily PPBs during it. Sturgeon's presentational skills covering no real policy differences.

Plugging the Westminster numbers into the Electoral Calculus site gives Labour 27 up 26, SNP 22 - down 26, Con 5 down 1, LD 5 up 1. The SNP do on that take Douglas Ross's seat.

And looking at Holyrood, it gives the numbers below, which would likely result in a SNP/Green coalition, with greater powers to the Greens.

You need to combine approve/disapprove with importance to voters to get a truer picture. So something that voters largely disapprove of, but also do not think important is unlikely to shift many votes. So from those figures Housing (-20% on approval) but with about 15-20% of people thinking it to be an important issue is going to be much more important than gender reform (also -20% on approval), but with just (I think) 2% of voters thinking it is an important issue.
