Wow! Incredibly positive reception in Newtoon this morning ๐Ÿ‘€ Potentially a sign for things to come, but weโ€™ll keep fighting for every single vote for @theSNP Weโ€™re taking nothing for granted in the fight to lock the Tories out of the #Borders ๐Ÿ’› #VoteSNP #ActiveSNP

We have a progressive tax system where the majority of workers pay less tax than their counterparts in the rest of the UK, with the highest median household disposable income after tax & housing costs. But Labour want to destroy that with a tax cut for the wealthiest? K ๐Ÿฅ€

@SandraToFriends Absolutely not. We are not an abstentionist party. From an voter perspective: itโ€™s electoral suicide for those who arenโ€™t yet fully sold on indy and want representation; optics perspective: weโ€™d be giving free attack lines to unionists and we wouldnโ€™t hold them to account.

Labour want to introduce charges to use the NHS, re-introduce backend tuition fees for universities, cut taxes for the wealthiest whilst cutting essential services and social security for the most vulnerable. Guess Labour have firmly abandoned itโ€™s working class & TU origins ๐Ÿฅ€

๐Ÿฅ€ Scottish Labour's finance spokesperson has admitted he is open to examining "models that would reintroduce some form of charges" on Scottish university students. ๐Ÿ“ข Scotland is tuition free with the SNP.

Great piece by Jennie outlining the dynamics of Scottish Politics - where London journos keep getting it wrong - and why the SNP, independence, and progressive politics wonโ€™t be disappearing anytime soon ๐Ÿ‘‡

In my latest piece for Bylines Scotland I take a look at the political shifts going on behind the scenes of recent events, and why it's more complicated that the simple left vs right dynamic many have assumed.

This is a lie. Reform Scotland, the โ€˜think tankโ€™ which proposed this โ€˜capโ€™ narrative, *wrongly* conflates magnitudes with proportions to skew the statistics. We have a record number of Scottish-domiciled students starting their first degree. 33,880 in 2021/22 for reference.

@SNPCallum @theSNP Lucky you, most donโ€™t get their first choice course because of lack of spaces given to Scottish students.

lol Carol Iโ€™d maybe keep quiet if I were you - whether on bringing shame to Scotland by engaging in a misogynistic, racist, and transphobic disinformation campaign; or Oneโ€™s party endorsing meeting with Netanyahu himself ๐Ÿ‘‡

This is heartbreaking ๐Ÿ‘Ž No one should ever need to endure this kind of intimidation. The level of cognitive dissonance required for these anti-abortion protestors to believe their callous actions are โ€œmorally goodโ€ is unbelievable.

Firstly, not an โ€œSNP Officerโ€ ๐Ÿคจ Secondly, drug policy is almost exclusively reserved to UK Gov - not Scot Gov. Westminsterโ€™s neglect is to blame. From seeking advice via LA, to having a dedicated drugs JM to mitigate WM with delimited powers - SNP take drug deaths seriously.

And to be explicitly clear - he paid every penny of it back. So, on top of pedalling a very obvious attempt of an ill-informed narrative - itโ€™s the deliberate obfuscation that this isnโ€™t at the expense of the taxpayer. Unlike Tory crony contracts and WMโ€™s corrupt expenses.

To be very clear, Labourโ€™s Laura has (and does) attack progressive policies by unjustifiably claiming them to be anti-Catholic, like with #BufferZones This kind of mentality is dangerous, not just for #WomensRights like on this instance, but for whipping up Sectarian divisions.

Iโ€™ve just turned 24, having grown up in a Scotland which had devolution, Westminster and the EU by default - with a majority Tory rule throughout my life. My generation grew up post-9/11, opportunities shafted by 2008, and became adults during the pandemic.
