🗣️ Whilst families across the country struggle with the rising cost of living, Westminster is consumed by political drama.

People deserve urgent action and support, not more chaos and distraction.

Paul Hutcheon's political position.

Labour run from London: Bad. "Decisions made hundreds of miles away in London."

Scotland run from London: Good.

😏 Current status of the SNP’s people-powered campaign objectives:

🟢 Lock out Reform in Scotland
🟡 Sack Keir Starmer
🟡 Unlock independence for Scotland

[Olaf Stando @OlafSNP]

For anyone who is trying to play down the SNP’s big election win:

🟡 SNP constituency vote share, 2026: 38.2%

🔴 Labour constituency vote share, 2024: 33.7%

If the 2024 general election was a Labour landslide, @JohnSwinney’s SNP win was more of a landslide.
