📺 I’ll give a Covid update today at 12.15pm - covering the latest figures, and asking all of us to play our part, through compliance with basic mitigations, in slowing down the rapid transmission we are seeing just now. I’ll be joined by @jasonleitch - please tune in if you can.

@bryzeeee1 @STVNews I think they're opening up on the 9th June

@Looby13693743 @CarlKendrick22 @RussInCheshire Even if it is true, it unfortunately doesn't necessarily mean there's no SNP supporters that are unionist. I'm pro-independence and voted SNP both ways but if they turned around tommorow with indyref2, without any additional aid after covid then it would be a real struggle voting

@UniformCarla @NicolaSturgeon @theSNP True but its already like that for the mass majority of the world's population. Most people can't afford to visit anywhere in Europe, it would only really effect individuals who already live comfortably

@UniformCarla @NicolaSturgeon @theSNP Honestly Norways amazing! Would recommend 10/10 - just have to do some careful saving beforehand and book your flights early so you've got more to spend

@UniformCarla @NicolaSturgeon @theSNP The tax level in Norway has fluctuated between 40 and 45% of GDP since the 1970s. In scotland (depending on your income) we pay 19-41%, there's still a hell of a long way to go before we all go bankrupt. Higher taxes = better quality of life

It most certainly is time to celebrate the amazing contribution of all the vols in Scotland - formal and informal who contribute every minute of every day - making a diff to all our lives. THANK YOU! #VolunteersWeekScot #NoLifeHalfLived @CHSScotland @ScotVolForum @VolScotland

What's next for the future of youth volunteering in Scotland?🤔The Youth VIP report from Project Scotland and Young Scot asks young people to show us how to get more people involved in volunteering and how we can improve the experience of young volunteers. https://t.co/ywDHAHyBQa
