It took around 5 months, but Reform UK Scotland are starting to fall apart. Unsurprisingly.
Reform UK has lost its first MSP and dropped into third place at Holyrood.
Amanda Bland is now an independent and no longer a Reform MSP.

Andy Burnham was right to rule out another referendum, but he only did it because of his gaffe last month in the House of Commons. 👇🏽
Great to appear on @GBNEWS to discuss the future of the Union, and to give a robust defence of Scotland’s place in the UK.

Burnham needs to close the doors he’s kicked open.
The Conservative Party will always fight for all corners of our United Kingdom.

Following a vote by our party Council, the Scottish Greens will no longer be posting on Twitter/X.
We have serious concerns about the site's direction of travel, particularly how it has spread misinformation and hate
You can still find us on other platforms.

Too many Scots can't get a place in a Scottish university despite having the grades because there aren't enough places available.
Instead of funding more places, the SNP has spent thousands sending kids to Ireland instead.
Thanks to @Mike_Blackley for running this piece. 👇

It is one poll, but a step in the right direction for Kemi’s Conservatives.
The advisor who drafted this post needs to give their head a wobble. The whole “North of Ireland” schtick is so performative. Even Swinney uses the correct name of Northern Ireland in the clip below.

The SNP have been playing the game for nearly two decades.
Faithfuls, it’s time to send them packing. 👀
A solid effort in Aberdeen from @ScotTories and a near hold of vote share, so bodes well for next May.

I am optimistic because The Conservatives have learnt from our mistakes. We are going the right way.
We are ready to fight for our values. Ready to win the argument. Ready to govern.
Ready to get Britain working again.
Thank you #CPC26.
Well, what a speech from Kemi Badenoch, outlining a truly Conservative vision for Britain. The @Conservatives has learned lessons and where we went wrong previously. Now, we have a solid plan for Britain when we win the next election. 🇬🇧
The Birmingham Tapestry is one of the best bits of political satire I’ve seen for a while. A great and engaging idea from the @Conservatives.

Everybody wrote us off.
This is the story of how @DLumsden_MP became the MP for Aberdeen South 👇

📣 JUST ANNOUNCED: We’re proposing a new law to crack down on benefit fraud and end the SNP’s light-touch approach. We must protect taxpayers’ money.
As I head to Birmingham for the Conservative Conference, I find it hilarious the number of Reform UK politicians who are taking to social media to whine about our party.
They usually say we are “irrelevant” etc, but yet they can’t stop talking about us.
Funny that…
Brilliant result in a key ward for the @ScotTories!
