Douglas Alexander broke the law by not declaring he met with Mandelson's lobbying firm. His position as Secretary of State for Scotland is now untenable. The story is so big even BBC Scotland isn't ignoring it.

NEW: The SNP has written to the independent adviser on ministerial standards, Sir Laurie Magnus, asking for an urgent investigation into whether Douglas Alexander has broken the ministerial code
A Tory health minister asked me in 2017 how #Scotland had set up #CommunityPharmacies & Minor Ailment Services over 10 years earlier.
They will now finally be rolled out across #England
- 20 years after #Scotland!
❗️ Only @theSNP will stand up for Scotland in Westminster!

Gaelic in Holyrood 🏴
Maree Todd, Donald MacKinnon, Ariane Burgess, Emma Roddick and Alison Thewliss all took their affirmations and oaths in Gaelic
I’ve officially been sworn in to begin serving the people of Edinburgh South Western. I took the oath in English and Hindi to reflect my heritage. I borrowed my mum’s saree which is similar to a kilt - both unstitched, long rectangular fabric that is draped. Secured using pins.
The comments about new MSPs taking the oath in different languages is somehow ‘colonising’ Scotland 😭
Being bilingual is a skill, not a threat. Some people hear another language for 10 seconds and act like the country is under attack.
Embarrassing.
CalMac has confirmed its ferry network has returned to full normality, with the return of two major vessels from extended repairs this week❗ https://t.co/EpJNnZz7Ba
Great to hear #ScottishPatientSafetyProgram praised by leading Swedish expert in WM Health Committee.
Introduced in 2007 - safety program cut hospital & post surgical deaths + complications such as pressure sores, sepsis, wound infections, etc.
Well done #NHSScot staff!👏👏👏
@EdinburghMinute Hi Michael, can’t verify that as still ongoing discussion & processes between the resident & CEC. But I am hopeful, based on the answer I got, that the resident will not be left to cope alone once the eviction process has concluded. Human aspect makes these decisions v difficult.
