The SNP’s Westminster leader, Dave Doogan, calls for an urgent review of what he describes as the UK’s “anti-business” policies. In comments reported by UK outlets, he argues that specific changes to business costs should be reconsidered without delay. Doogan highlights the rise in employer national insurance contributions as an example of measures he says are harmful to employers and should be removed. The call is framed as part of a wider push by the SNP to challenge government policy decisions affecting businesses, particularly through increased labour-related taxes. While the reporting focuses on the same policy point—employer national insurance contributions—sources agree on the thrust of the message: an immediate reassessment and, in Doogan’s view, scrapping of the measures he cites. The articles do not provide additional detail on alternative policy proposals, timelines for review, or responses from the UK government within the provided excerpts. The demand remains a call for action and policy change directed at the UK authorities.
