If you agree then make it #BothVotesLabour
🎥 @ScottishLabour’s promising free school meals for all pupils during the summer holidays through summer catch-up clubs in the #SP21 campaign trail today.
➡️ The policy would benefit around 700,000 children.
🗣 @AnasSarwar says it’s vital following the pandemic👇🏻
1 in 4 children in Scotland live in poverty.
No child should be going hungry.
Our Summer meals clubs will be open to all of Scotland's pupils and will tackle the scourge of holiday hunger. It will also help our young people catch-up on time with their friends.
We must confront the scandal of child poverty.
Imagine what we could achieve if we obsessed about these issues, rather than the old arguments.
We can do that by making it #BothVotesLabour on 6th May.
Unbelievable that this is the SNP Government’s priority. We are in the midst of a pandemic. Lives & livelihoods are still at risk.
The priority should be delivering a National Recovery Plan.
I will focus on what unites us as a country - not what divides us.
25,000 calls to the mental health crisis hub went unanswered in the last year.
Failures have consequences, in this case devastating ones.
We need urgent action from the Scottish Government.
Our education comeback plan:
📚 A national tutoring scheme
📜 A personal comeback plan for each pupil
📝 A resit guarantee
👩🏫 Support for our teachers
🌳 A summer comeback focused on sports and activity
Double leaflet session today! Step count is certainly picking up 🏃
Had a lovely afternoon with @elsieortong sharing @JillBGlasgow’s message of more investment in public services not more division and decline from the SNP & the Tories 🌹

It is the greatest honour of my life to be elected leader of @ScottishLabour.
I will be a leader that focuses on what unites us as a country - not what divides us.
