Rejected petition Nicola Sturgeon and the SNPs lack of support for oil and gas workers

During the independence referendum the Nationalists repeatedly said that oil would form the economic base for an independent Scotland.
We need concrete action from the Scottish Government to help people find work. It is time that the SNP took their head out of the sand.
