800 ghost jobs. £27 million of YOUR money. That’s the frightening cost of the SNP’s no compulsory redundancy policy. We’d put an end to this waste and deliver value for money to taxpayers.

Ahem 👋 @JohnSwinney ... YES or NO?
Yes or no, First Minister? Scotland’s oil and gas workers deserve an answer.

Replying to @RussellFindlay1
@RussellFindlay1 and the @ScotTories have proven they’re still the only party at Holyrood capable of providing a strong opposition to the SNP 💪  And @KemiBadenoch is taking the fight to Labour’s tax-and-spend approach at Westminster 🥀 👇Read my piece in the Scottish Daily Express. scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/c…

Once again, a Labour Chancellor has bottled getting a grip of his party’s out-of-control benefits bill.
Labour’s Budget is already falling apart.

Why are MSPs learning through a BBC News report about the worst disorder in a Scottish prison for a decade, nearly five weeks after it happened? Around 30 inmates were involved in the Polmont riot. Prison officers were injured. Reinforcements were brought in from four other prisons. When did Justice Secretary @neilcgray know? Why did he not bring this before Parliament? When were members supposed to find out? Parliament should not have to rely on journalists to discover what is happening inside Scotland’s prisons. Treating parliamentary scrutiny as optional shows an appalling disrespect for Parliament and the democratic process. And the explanation for this riot needs proper scrutiny. What triggered it? Were warnings missed? Were officers adequately protected? Assertions about overcrowding do not remove the need to establish the facts or hold those responsible to account. Neil Gray owes Parliament a full explanation. This is nowhere near good enough. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwdd…

This should be an easy question 👇 John Swinney needs to grow a backbone and stand up for jobs in the North East.

Asked FIVE times if he backs Rosebank, John Swinney still couldn’t give a straight answer. With North Sea jobs and Scotland’s energy future at stake, oil and gas workers deserve better than fence-sitting and waffle.

John Swinney refuses to say YES or NO on whether he backs Rosebank oil field. 1,000 North Sea jobs are being lost every month👇 #FMQs

Labour promised GB Energy would create 1000 jobs in Aberdeen, so far they only have 86 in the whole of Scotland. The only way to guarantee energy security and jobs in Aberdeen is to get Britain drilling.

We know the SNP are an anti-growth, pro-welfare, high-tax government 📉 But yesterday the Chancellor missed a golden opportunity to mitigate their economic self-harm 🥀 ⬇️ my piece in the Telegraph.

A privilege to present awards to the Thales apprentice graduates. This historic and innovative defence firm in Glasgow is truly world-leading.

A Green MSP is spending your hard-earned cash on a “migrant justice officer” 🤯 The Scottish Conservatives would stop the waste and deliver value for money to taxpayers.

Today's Budget is a kick in the teeth for the North East. ❌Labour didn't approve Rosebank ❌Or scrap the EPL 📈The tax burden is going up 📈And so is benefits spending
