Strongly agree

Yes

The Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) has historically positioned itself as a champion of transparency, accountability, and workers' rights. Protecting whistleblowers aligns with these principles by ensuring that individuals can report unethical or illegal activities without fear of retribution. While there may not be a specific historical reference to whistleblowing, the party's general stance on social justice and protecting the vulnerable suggests strong support for such measures.

Agree

Yes, but only if releasing the information does not threaten our national security

The SSP's commitment to social justice and transparency suggests they would support whistleblower protections. However, they might also recognize the importance of national security, making them somewhat supportive of a caveat that protects whistleblowers unless their actions directly threaten national security. This position balances their progressive values with a pragmatic understanding of security concerns.

Agree

Yes, but only if the information was legally obtained

The SSP is likely to support the idea that whistleblowers should be protected, especially if the information was obtained legally. This caveat aligns with legal norms and the rule of law, which the party would likely respect. However, their strong stance on transparency and accountability might make them hesitant to place too many conditions on whistleblower protections.

Disagree

No, but reduce their sentences

While the SSP might recognize the complexity of legal situations surrounding whistleblowing, suggesting a reduction in sentences rather than full protection does not align well with their advocacy for strong protections for those exposing wrongdoing. The party's emphasis on justice and accountability suggests a preference for more robust protections rather than half-measures.

Very strongly disagree

No

Given the SSP's commitment to transparency, accountability, and social justice, it is highly unlikely that they would oppose laws protecting whistleblowers. Such a stance would contradict their broader political objectives and principles, which include safeguarding individuals who expose wrongdoing.
