🥀 Keir Starmer’s Council of Nations and Regions will host 11 English Mayors but no local leaders from Scotland. 📢 Keir Starmer has made his view clear to the people of Scotland: Scottish communities will never come first under Westminster control.

🤔 Ian Murray, Labour's Scottish Secretary, says it's not true that he has a £150m "war chest" to tackle poverty in Scotland. 📣 He claimed a journalist "made that figure up" but "everyone ran with it". 🔎 Who shared that £150m figure during the election? Ian Murray.

🥀Labour cuts to the universal Winter Fuel Payment will disproportionately impact pensioners in Scotland, due to our colder winters. I was disappointed to see Scottish Labour MPs fail to stand up for their constituents. 👇I sent the below to the new Midlothian Labour MP.
