Douglas Ross will pledge to kickstart a skills revolution as he announces a new fund to help people get back into work or progress their career in a bid to fend off a “tsunami of unemployment” in the wake of coronavirus.
In his headline speech to the Scottish Conservative conference on Monday, Mr Ross will outline a manifesto pledge for May’s Scottish Parliament election that would see every Scot given access to an annual £500 ‘Retrain to Rebuild’ account.
The party would seek to roll out the scheme to 100,000 people for two years before expanding it to a universal offering in 2023.

Following a meeting of the Criminal Justice Taskforce, chaired by the Prime Minister, the Government is taking immediate steps to provide further reassurance for women and girls.
This includes doubling the size of the Safer Streets fund, which provides neighbourhood measures such as better lighting and CCTV. This will bring the funding for these local projects to £45million, alongside a commitment from the Government to work with police forces and Police and Crime Commissioners to ensure these target areas of potential concern for women and girls and are now more focussed on preventing sexual violence.
This could include targeting parks and alleyways, and routes from bars, restaurants and nightclubs as we see a return to the night-time economy, in line with the lifting of coronavirus restrictions.
