📢 Your @theSNP government has spent £1.3 billion over the last 15 years fixing Westminster failures like the Bedroom Tax.
❌ Broken Brexit Britain is holding Scotland back - with the full powers of independence we can change Scotland’s future forever and for good.

By treating Welsh, Scottish and English nationalism as variations of the same political problem, Streeting created a false equivalence between movements shaped by entirely different political traditions and grievances ✍️Brenig Davies wp.me/p8Mk4U-1lJR

When I was wee, my dad bought the Express because it had the best racing section and he loved moderate gambling on the cuddies. He’ll be birling in his grave seeing his fellow Scots described as FILTH by this propagandist, colonialist rag. The more irrelevant, the more repulsive!

I was delighted to meet up again with Claire Anderson, Charity Manager at @CashForKidsTay.
The Lord Provost Charity Fund donated £500 to Cash for Kids and I wish Claire and her team every success going forward.

On Friday evening @streetsoccerSCO at the @ChangeCentreDun held their Christmas party for families across Dundee. 🎄
They had applied to the Tayside Contracts Community Fund earlier in the year to have the buffet provided for this event and it was approved much to their delight. 🥪🍩
This was a great opportunity for us to pop along to see what they were receiving and what it means to the recipients. We were warmly welcomed by Kyle Fraser, Social Enterprise Manager and Fiona Hain, Community Development Manager for @HelpForKids102 who gave Dougie McKay, TC Managing Director the background to the charity and the event and how appreciative they are for the help they have received from the Community Fund and how it helps them provide food to families in one of the most deprived areas in the city.
As we were finishing up, there were lots of mini Santa's and elves arriving so we left them to enjoy their party. 🧑🏻🎄🎉

4 cracking, truly fantastic, goals but have watched this on repeat about 5 times in a row. Amazing performance by the lads digging deep after the 2nd and then again after the ref lost his watch after the 3rd... MAGIC

Man with stubble, "Small boats arrivals are 37,000. There are over 4 million kids in child poverty. And 4.5 million who can't get a dentist appointment" #BBCQT
"We spend 90% of the media discourse on the 37,000. How much more could we achieve if we put that effort into the 4.5 million?"
Well said that man 👏

That’s energy bills up by £187
Labour’s first step to set up Great British Energy will save families up to £300 a year off their energy bills.
A vote for Labour on Thursday 4 July is a vote for change and to make you better off.

Edinburgh the capital of Scotland is now out performing London in per capita GDP. 1st time ever. Ever hear a Unionist politician lauding this. No, no,no. Don't do good news for Scotland. We're a ridiculously rich little nation, held back by a failing sinking debt ridden UK.

📊 The ONS have predicted that over 25,000 people will lose their jobs as a result of Labour’s National Insurance increase.
💸 Working people shouldn’t be made to bear the brunt of UK fiscal incompetence.

As I made clear in my speech today I was keen to work with colleagues in other parties to meet the various sector demands for a Scottish visa. After some daft arguments about watch towers Labour voted against having a even vote on the Bill 🤷
