SNP accused of ‘reviving right to buy’
SNP MINISTERS were accused today of “reviving right to buy” in Scotland after it emerged that the first homes built under a flagship government scheme had been sold off.
News website The Ferret reported that early National Housing Trust-financed homes in Aberdeen had been swiftly put on the market.
