STV News were even worse that Reporting Scotland tonight. The first politician shown making a statement about England's race riots wasn't even the FM. It was Anas Sarwar. The leader of Holyrood's third biggest party shouldn't be leading items like this. That's why we have a FM.
In Scotland, a lot of public consultation work was achieved in designing the new Pension Age Winter Heating Payment. This was to replace the UK Government’s Winter Fuel Payment and was to be paid to everyone over the state pension age.
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has welcomed 277 new junior doctors to the health board.
This year’s intake of newly qualified doctors will begin their healthcare careers across our hospitals and healthcare facilities across Glasgow and Inverclyde.
Another boost for our NHS.
You're a pensioner in Scotland. the coldest part of the British Isles. We sent 38 Labour MPs from Scotland to do their bit for you. Didn't they do well. Your Winter Fuel Allowance is gone. Learn. When you send Labour MPs to London, they're not there for you. There for the party.
The Scottish Govt announced £30m in funding for the NHS today to tackle waiting lists. It's the third funding announcement this week and follows £2m for carbon capture and over £40m for electric buses. Reporting Scotland has ignored all three. STV News covered the NHS funding.
Our baby box arrived! 🙌🏴
Blown away & a little emotional by all the stuff inside, not just for baby but for parents too.
A stark reminder this week that politics is about choices & you can choose to support mothers & babies, or not. #scotlandsbabybox

Reporting Scotland this morning has employed a complete blackout of last night's two child benefit cap vote that saw seven Labour MPs suspended and all 37 Scottish Labour MPs refuse to vote to immediately scrap the policy.
Just can't believe it! What are the Scottish electorate thinking of.
Reintroduction of
Everything that has been worked so had for; Free Tuition fees gone, Free Prescriptions gone, our Profile in the EU gone, Baby boxes gone, Free school meals gone, Child Payment gone, etc etc
Today I'm ashamed to be Scottish.
My country has voted to continue selling arms to Israel. It has voted to remain outside of the EU. It has voted to keep children in poverty. It has voted to privatise the NHS. It has voted for nuclear power stations and nuclear weapons.
