Baroness Amos is investigating 8 000 cases where babies may have died or been seriously harmed by inadequate maternity care in NHS England - today's report into the QEUH Glasgow mentions none https://t.co/NkTIiACED6

A senior member of the Royal family & a govt Lord passing state secrets to the world's most notorious paedophile. Billions of Covid fraud & profiteering by 'Lady Mone' yet the mad man McKenna thinks nicking 400k from SNP members is the biggest ever scandal. And there's these 👇

@MareeToddMSP Absolutely right. And, as the song goes, everybody needs good neighbours 🙂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I have three adult children. One grandbaby ❤️

None of my children had a vote in 2014. Half a lifetime away for them.

Is this a voluntary union? If so, how can we leave?

We’ll be the best neighbours ever - we’d just like to make our own decisions.

Remember this if you are even giving Reform UK a thought...

Before you vote for reform in Scotland, this is what Nigel Farage thinks of us…

No.

"What Anas Sarwar has got right is he's identified Westminster is holding Scotland back"

The SNP's @EmmaRoddickSNP says Anas Sarwar has "called for a new captain of a sinking ship" and we need a “serious conversation” about the political culture of the UK

Today, we learned that the Slochd-Dalraddy section of the A9 dualling project will be brought forward.
I have pressed many times on this section and the active travel route for local communities, and asked for more information on next steps today 👇

Interesting to hear the redoubtable Fraser Nelson proclaim on @BBCr4today that independence hasn't moved. In fact it's currently 8 points ahead of where it was at the last Referendum and 6 points clear of support for the Union according to the latest poll.

[Net Zero Scotland @ScotGovNetZero]

Scotland’s draft Climate Change Plan sets out actions to reduce emissions between now & 2040.

In a statement to @ScotParl Climate Action Secretary @GillianMSP said taking climate action will also:

🟢Grow the economy
🟢Tackle poverty
🟢Restore nature
🟢Improve health & wellbeing

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

BBC Scotland has rejected a complaint after it refused to challenge a made up NHS waiting list figure from Scottish Labour because it says the party has its own calculation method. This is extraordinary. Scottish Labour politicians can lie with impunity about the NHS on the BBC.

[Maree Todd @MareeToddMSP]

The SNP majority is on!

[Pileus Media @thepileus]

We can beat Reform as long as people don't waste their vote on Labour

In Wales - vote Plaid
In Scotland - vote SNP
In England - vote Green.

[Billy Kay @billykayscot]

By far the most hostile and biased interviewer I ever experienced on the BBC. My impression was that she had zero feeling for Scottish culture and her discomfort at being exposed led her to be aggressive towards folk whose prime identity was Scottish.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

Have you noticed how every single BBC Scotland presenter and reporter is critiquing John Swinney's Indyref 'SNP majority' strategy as though a refusal from the UK Govt isn't just legitimate, but appropriate?

None of them will admit that ignoring an SNP majority is unacceptable because it breaks established precedent and would create a constitutional crisis that would only end with the capitulation of the UK Govt.
