Most major European cities have a bedroom tax. Let’s stop messing around and introduce it. Edinburgh needs the money. Cleaner streets. Bins emptied quicker. Better roads. So many tourists. So many hotels. So many more being built. Such high occupancy rates. Can’t see a downside.

Mark Geddes

The downside is that the money would go to Edinburgh City Council. If the money was actually going to the community to spend on real needs I would support it.

Andrew Crosbie

Got to love how they managed to personally contact every single tourist and ask their opinion. Well done.

Andrew Innes The SNP is to hold a national “day of action” on Scottish independen­ce later this month, taking the temperatur­e of the nation as it continues its preparatio­ns for a second referendum.

It’s just a matter of time now. Roll on 29 March when Brexit starts, which will kickstart the push for inevitable independen­ce..

Angelo Greig

The SNP have been pushing for independen­ce right up until it got voted against. Now it just sounds like a cry for help from the profession­al grievance party. They have had more than ten years in power to prove their worth and they have proved nothing.

Christmas is coming soon.

Robert Muir

You realise the SNP serves no purpose once Scotland breaks out of its current political union, and thus voting for an independen­t Scotland is the quickest way of getting rid of the SNP.

Ross Stewart fill it regularly, why not? Museums and theatres employ people, encourage tourism, and may also make Dundee an attractive place to set up a business. This is definitely worth serious considerat­ion, albeit let’s remain realistic. Dundee potentiall­y has a lot to offer but needs reinvented after its industrial past.

Jock Macuddy

A concert hall or opera house could be next ! What a load of pretentiou­s nonsense. Monies would be better spent creating sustainabl­e good employment opportunit­ies for the people of Dundee.

Very careful cost-benefit analyses will be required to add a dose of reality and certainty on what might realistica­lly be achievable. No harm whatsoever in having positive thoughts for the future, so good luck to Dundee for the opening of the V&A and beyond.
