TOMORROW Britain goes to the polls in what is the most important General Election for a generation.

For the Scottish Conservatives, this election boils down to two key issues - the need to keep our economy strong and our United Kingdom together.

Five years ago, when the Conservatives came to government, we inherited an economy on the brink; a sky high deficit, spiralling welfare bill and a crippling lack of jobs.

This sorry state of affairs was summed up in a single note - left by a Labour Minister on a Treasury desk - that said: "Sorry, there's no money left."

This was Labour's legacy; the mess we Conservatives have had to clear up.

So while I understand that the last few years have been tough, I'm proud of the steps we have taken to put our economy right.

Since 2010, there are now 178,000 more jobs in Scotland, 57,700 fewer people claiming out of work benefits and 37,600 new businesses.

Pensioner poverty has fallen, child poverty is down and the lowest earners have been taken out of income tax altogether.

On Thursday we face a clear choice - stay the course with David Cameron, the Prime Minister that has brought down the deficit, overseen record employment and delivered more jobs than the rest of the EU combined - or walk away from all that and into the arms of the same people that brought us to the brink in the first place.

But an Ed Miliband government would not just be bad for the economy, it would be bad for the Union too.

We all know that Nicola Sturgeon wants to have the whip hand over a weak Labour administration; demanding concessions here, there and everywhere - on debt, fiscal autonomy and the future of the UK.

Unlike other parties, who refuse to rule out coming to some form of arrangement with the SNP, we have been clear: no deals with any nationalist party that wants to break up the United Kingdom.

Last year, the Scottish Conservatives campaigned heart and soul to keep our country together.

We are proud of our efforts and we will work hard to ensure that the referendum result is honoured.

It's a simple message and our vision for Scotland is clear - perhaps that is why, as Labour collapses and the Lib Dems shrink, the Scottish Conservatives are the only pro-UK party rising in the polls.

So when you enter the polling station, I'd encourage you to vote for what you believe in; to vote for the party that has the best plan for Britain's future.

It's quite simple really, if you care passionately about the United Kingdom and want to keep our economy strong then there really is only one party that ticks all the boxes- and that's the Scottish Conservative and Unionists.
