The Association will publish articles written by members and approved by our editorial Committee. If you have an article that you wish to publish that is compatible with the objectives of the Association and our Party please submit it with your name and address to:

The MCUA Editorial Committee at   [email protected]

Association Objectives:

to advance the knowledge of the Party's principles and policies and generally  to promote the interests of the Party in the Constituency.

  • To secure the return of Conservative and Unionist Members of the UK  Parliament for all Westminster Parliamentary Constituencies located wholly or partially within the Constituency.
  • To secure the return of Conservative and Unionist Members of the Scottish Parliament for all Scottish Parliamentary Constituencies located wholly or partially within the Constituency.
  • To assist in securing the return under proportional representation of Conservative and Unionist Members of the Scottish Parliament.
  • To secure the return of Conservative and  Unionist  Councillors at Local Government Elections in wards or electoral divisions falling within the Boundaries of the Constituency.

What we stand for:

The Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party is a patriotic, unionist party of the Scottish centre-right.

We stand up for Scotland’s place in the UK, equal opportunity, enterprise and growth, localism and community and the rights of victims and the police in our justice system.

  • We champion Scotland’s place in the UK: The Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party will always stand up for the United Kingdom and Scotland’s place in it. We represent those people who do not want separation or another divisive independence referendum.
  • We believe in equality of opportunity: The Scottish Conservatives believe that every single person in Scotland deserves the same chances and opportunities in life. No one should not be held back because of their background or where they live. All of us deserve the same chance to achieve our goals.
  • We know that good public services rely on a strong economy: The Scottish Conservatives believe that the best way to fund our public services is through a growing, competitive, enterprising economy that is creating good jobs. Hiking taxes will only damage growth and reduce the funding available to our schools, hospitals and police in the long term.
  • We celebrate localism and community: The Scottish Conservatives recognise that Scotland is diverse and not uniform. We believe in local solutions to local problems, in building up communities and in every part of our country getting a fair deal.
  • We stand for the rule of law and the rights of victims and the police: The Scottish Conservatives believe in a justice system that is on the side of victims and protects the police. We support a firm but fair approach to justice that tackles crime.
