Wet enough to call a general election. Absolutely Sunaked it.

Stephen Flynn gets two rounds of applause in less than 90 seconds by completely debunking 10 years of "race to the bottom" anti-migrant politics.

Delighted to see ⁦Epilepsy Scotland⁩ CEO Lesslie Young awarded an OBE in the King’s Birthday honours. Rightful recognition of Lesslie and everyone at ES’s tireless commitment to making better the lives of so many people with #epilepsy. 👏🏻🎉 bbc.com/news/articles/…

🗳️The next UK Government will be Red Tories or Blue Tories. Both won’t fix: ❌Austerity ❌Brexit ❌Cost-of-living crisis We need The SNP MPs to present a positive, progressive, European vision in Westminster. #GeneralElection #VoteSNP

🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿The pro-EU #SNPmanifesto advocates for what The SNP representatives have been arguing for in both UK & Scottish Parliaments: 🟡Rejoin Creative Europe 🟡Rejoin Erasmus+ 🟡Restore free movement 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿This will set a clear path for Scotland to reverse #Brexit & rejoin the #EU.

☀️Out in the sun with Paul Skrgatic to get Deidre Brock re-elected to Westminster for #Edinburgh North & Leith. #ActiveSNP #VoteSNP SNP Edin N & Leith

🚨We must be serious about the threat of Farage’s far-right making gains in this #GeneralElection. Not least because mainstream parties are emulating his policies in a misguided attempt to win votes. Across the country—& Europe—we must resoundingly reject the politics of hate.

Proudly casting my postal ballot for Deidre Brock & the only party serious about rejoining the EU and opposing #Brexit, The SNP. #GeneralElection4thJuly

The Tories are finished but Labour promise the same 18billion cuts, won't rejoin Europe & won't even get rid of the two child benefit cap. Let's return a strong, experienced SNP voice, working in the best interests of Edinburgh North and Leith & Scotland #VoteSNP #VoteDeidreBrock

Today's the day. Vote for hope. #VoteSNP #VoteDeidreBrock

🌈Over 13 years, Colin has put in an *absolute shift* to advance the rights of LGBTQ+ people in Scotland & beyond. I have no doubt that, when the gay history is told, he will be seen as one of the most important leaders in our community. Proud of you, friend🩷🏳️‍🌈👏 Onwards!
