The Poverty Alliance’s 2026 Scottish Parliament Election Manifesto

For more than 30 years, The Poverty Alliance have campaigned for the changes needed to bring about an end to poverty.

Our manifesto ahead of the Scottish Parliament elections in 2026, the basis of which is the delivery of a Minimum Income Guarantee for Scotland. This is a bold policy idea, but we believe it will make our country better and fairer. Delivering the Guarantee will need time, investment, and action. It will take a genuine national commitment. Political parties must play a key role in getting this policy on the agenda ahead of the next election and advocating for its implementation in the next parliament.

Join us in advocating for this transformational policy ahead of the 2026 elections.
