Watch: New Lib Dem MSP Yi-Pei Chou Turvey, who was born in Taiwan and raised in Belgium, gives her oath in three languages as she is sworn in at Holyrood.
We all know a closer relationship with Europe would turbocharge our economy. Yet the Prime Minister's 'fresh start' is far too weak and unambitious.
It's time for a UK-EU customs union.
It is clear that our victories in seats like Caithness, Sutherland and Ross and Strathkelvin and Bearsden have denied John Swinney a majority.
Our new MSPs are now raring to go to deliver change with fairness at its heart for their constituents.
So this is a list of 111 ppl who were quite happy to see their voters suffer just so they could keep their jobs.
Isn't this what they criticised the Tories for?
I hold no truck for Starmer but this is truly a shameful & unedifying time for @UKLabour-like rats fighting for scraps

@UKLabour are no better than the Tories with their internal war- happy to rip a country apart bcos personal ambition trumps the nations need. The arrogance has always been breathtaking-assuming ppl will vote the way *they* think they should.
Seriously folks, stick to @libdems
More and more people are turning from the old 2 parties to the Liberal Democrats.
We are the only party let standing that want to build things up, not burn things down.
I was honoured to be re-elected as the MSP for North East Fife. It is special to represent the area where I grew up and I am grateful to everyone who gave me their support and to the many people who contributed so much effort to my campaign.
