Potential solution? As an early childcare and education provider, I am sick&tired of hearing "childcare costs far too much" Studied for 4 years whilst working & raising my son to gain my degree in Childhood Practice yet my profession is consistently devalued in this rhetoric 1/6

[Sky News @SkyNews]

What’s the solution to rising childcare costs?

@CentreProPolicy is calling for childcare to be classed as infrastructure to allow for investment to boost economic growth

Hi! I recently joined Silk On Me's ambassador program and got free jewelry. I can now invite a few friends to join, it's worth it! https://t.co/b1M41BKFBL

@JohnSwinney Please on our behalf, petition to PM and King, we do not want that man back in our country. #ScotlandSaysNoToTrump #JaneyGodleywasright

[John Swinney @JohnSwinney]

Today's events in Washington are a clear cause for deep concern, for shock, for anger. What we need now are cool heads and clear thinking. We must stand firm with our European allies in the steadfast defence of Ukraine. That is where Scotland stands.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦

Deny Access to Donald Trump within Scotland and Seize His Assets for Public Ownership - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/JRGfIKpYR9 via @UKChange

[Lindsay Aitken @matthewsmummy]

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: https://t.co/m1faHF2qO0 via @38degrees

@ZelenskyyUa you conducted yourself with dignity in the presence of ignorance and bullying. Scotland stands with Ukraine. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦

@PSOSSouthLshire URGENT - MISSING CHILD AND VULNERABLE WOMAN - https://t.co/nZSUJlVys8 are officers attending to help this woman, alone looking for her missing child?

[Lindsay Aitken @matthewsmummy]

@AlanLepore @HoustonTexans And what about concern for the human being he injured???

[Emilio Cricchio @EmilioCricchio]

Can’t get enough of #MaggieSmith in interviews with Kenneth Williams - she really was the Original Ally.

[Sky News @SkyNews]

Fox Weather meteorologist Bob Van Dillen was filmed wading towards the woman who was screaming for help after driving into floodwater caused by Hurricane Helene.

👏🏼👏🏼 outstanding Scotland!! Yet another way we in Scotland are ahead of the curve! Big congrats to @JamesTCobbler on becoming Prisons Minister. Maybe some common sense now can come into how to prevent rather than punish. Feels hopeful ☺️

[Suzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk]

@krishgm @JamesTCobbler The Scottish Sentencing Council @ScotSentencing took the decision in 2022 for judges to factor knowledge of brain development & childhood trauma into sentencing when person 25 years or younger is convicted.

[Lindsay Aitken @matthewsmummy]

@StephenFlynnSNP Outstanding response to 1st question. Prevention is vital poverty has SO much to do with causes of crime. This seems lost on other panel members. Well done for mentioning the incredible @vruscotland work in reducing crime in Glasgow. Take a leaf tories!!!!!

[Lindsay Aitken @matthewsmummy]

Disgusting, those filmed abusing(direct or indirectly) children should be held accountable and barred from ever working with children or vulnerable people. #merseysidepolice

@StephenFlynnSNP we should be immensely proud of the @vruscotland in terms of reducing violent crimes by tackling the causes of them. Next #electiondebate please highlight this. https://t.co/8z7S4HxKw8
Very impressed in general. 👍🏼

[Suzanne Zeedyk @suzannezeedyk]

Today I sent this link about our @connectedbaby film on the 'Origins of the Scottish Violence Reduction Unit' to someone. It interviews founders @karynmccluskey & @JohnCarnochan in 2009. So I thought I'd pop it up here for anyone who hasn't seen it.

Aw good on you son! @HumzaYousaf Didn't agree with everything you did as FM, but thank you for what you achieved for our benefit. Human and dignified even in such high emotion.

[Lindsay Aitken @matthewsmummy]

Oh dear @JoeWicks8 you really should have facts checked before making comments about such important subjects you know so little about. Very dangerous to share your uninformed opinions.

[ADHD UK @ADHDUKcharity]

In response to Joe Wicks saying #ADHD is caused by ultra-processed foods: Joe is a force for so much good but on this he's abjectly wrong. His point that a good diet can help almost everyone is right. But diet good, bad, or ugly won't make you have ADHD or make you not have ADHD.
