Are you losing faith in the SNP, Ruth?

[ruth wishart @ruth_wishart]

Have to say it's difficult to conclude that fewer oouncils and fewer health boards will somehow improve the country and its citizenry.

[Stephen McCabe @SJMcCabeKilma]

Your party also promised to deliver a cruise ship levy but @JennyGilruthMSP is refusing to introduce legislation for it. What are your Leaders @Gillian_Mackay1 and @Ross_Greer doing about it?

[Adam Ramsay @AdamRamsay]

There is a tourist tax in Edinburgh, largely due to Green pressure at various levels. Today, I was stopped by a council rep and asked how I thought we should spend the millions our area has been allocated from it. Don’t let the usual naysayers put you off, England.

[Stephen McCabe @SJMcCabeKilma]

The National Council of the party you support passed a motion with the party leader present supporting a Scottish Government moratorium. Have you asked him why he hasn't complied with this motion?

There are currently plans in place for 24 AI data centres to be built across Scotland.

Now a public health expert has spoken out, warning of the use of toxic chemicals on the sites and describing the move to push ahead with them as the "height of madness".

An Inverclyde-based consortium of businessmen has submitted an offer to save Greenock Morton

It comes after Estrella this morning denied claims from MCT that they were back at the table.

We elect MPs and MSPs to make informed decisions on these type of moral issues not to simply follow public option polls...

If just 16 MP's in favour of the assisted dying bill had gone to the Commons today, the vote could have been won! The public have long been in favour - your voters!

Our burial grounds staff are encouraging biodiversity by replacing traditional spring and summer bedding at Greenock Cemetery with a colourful wildflower meadow.

The meadows will be replaced with autumn beds but will return next year.🌻

RIP Cathie 🙏

[Susan Dalgety @DalgetySusan]

Cathie Craigie, Labour MSP 1999
- 2011, has sadly died. She was the first woman MSP to steer a Member’s Bill through Holyrood - the Mortgage Rights (Scotland) Act, which provides greater protection for those facing repossession 💜

The SNP have destroyed Scotland since 2014 and John Swinney doesn't really want another independence referendum.

@AustinRSheridan You can say "should" until you are blue in the face but that doesn't change the fact it "doesn't" 👀

[Stephen McCabe @SJMcCabeKilma]

But it doesn't have that power...

[Gillian Mackay - Scottish Greens @Gillian_Mackay1]

We have already endured far too many years of obstruction, hurdles and political games from UK governments.

It has gone on for far too long.

The Scottish Parliament should have the power to trigger that referendum!

The new SNP leader of Glasgow says he's ready to fight with his party colleagues at Holyrood to get more funding for the city.

Former council treasurer and deputy leader Ricky Bell's been chosen to replace Susan Aitken.

With the country's largest local authority facing major financial challenges councillor Bell insists he'll stand up to the Scottish Government.

He's also pushing for Glasgow to take over its wealthier neighbouring councils to help ease the city's funding problems.

[Stephen Boyle @AuditorGenScot]

As financial pressure increases it’s not clear if colleges can continue to deliver for students and employers without urgent and successful reform of the sector.

@scotgov and its partners need to implement our 2025 recommendations at pace.

[Cllr Fiona Higgins @Fiona_Higgins_]

⚖️ The Standards Commission are to appeal Lord Sandison’s ruling that their decision to refuse key evidence in my case was unlawful. They have said this will help them with legal clarity on how to run their hearings.

I will provide updates as this new stage unfolds and I remain grateful for the extraordinary support I have received from across the political spectrum and from members of the public.
