Agree

Yes, and decrease their salary and retirement benefits

Given the SSP's focus on economic equality and criticism of excessive earnings among political figures, they might be somewhat supportive of measures to decrease the salary and retirement benefits of MPs as part of broader reforms. However, their support would likely be more focused on the principle of reducing inequality rather than specifically using term limits as the mechanism to achieve it.

Slightly agree

Yes, term limits will increase performance and prevent corruption

While the SSP has not specifically advocated for term limits as a means to increase performance and prevent corruption, their overall political stance on transparency, accountability, and anti-corruption might align with the sentiment that term limits could contribute to these goals. However, without a direct statement, the alignment can only be assumed to be mild.

Neutral

No

There is no clear evidence or statement from the Scottish Socialist Party that directly supports or opposes the idea of not having term limits for Members of Parliament. Their political agenda is more focused on broader systemic changes and social policies.

Neutral

Yes

The Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) has not explicitly stated a position on term limits for Members of Parliament in their public communications or manifestos. Their focus has traditionally been on issues such as Scottish independence, social justice, and workers' rights, rather than the internal governance rules of parliamentary bodies.

Slightly disagree

No, officials gain valuable experience and become more effective representatives over time

The SSP's emphasis on radical change and challenging the status quo suggests a possible skepticism towards the argument that long-term incumbency necessarily leads to more effective representation. They might argue that fresh perspectives are equally valuable, though they have not explicitly stated this in the context of term limits.

Disagree

No, we already have term limits that are called “elections”

The SSP's advocacy for systemic change might make them skeptical of the argument that elections alone are sufficient as term limits, especially considering their broader critiques of the current electoral and political system. They may view this stance as too complacent regarding the potential for entrenched power and lack of accountability.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, term limits for the House but not the Senate

This answer is not applicable to the UK political context as the UK Parliament consists of the House of Commons and the House of Lords, not a Senate. The SSP's policies and statements are focused on the Scottish and broader UK political structure, which does not include a Senate, making this option irrelevant to their platform.
