Sir,
I would greatly appreciate if the revisionists Mr Archie Harper and Dr David Wilson would state exactly when Road Equivalent Tariff (RET) was introduced to the Western Isles.
Cheaper ferry fares were introduced for a period -
Stornoway -
In short, it's more expensive to travel by ferry today than the heady days when the SNP used to con us with terms like RET.
However, I'm sure SNP activists like Mr Harper and Dr Wilson won't allow the simple facts and truths stated above to get in the way of their next rant. They would best serve our islands if they could get our MP and MSP to focus on unravelling the ferry debacle they are presiding over.
