🛑 The Westminster parties are intent on denying Scotland's right choose its own future. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 It's the people of Scotland, not Westminster politicians, who are sovereign. 🤝 Let’s put the power to decide Scotland's future into Scotland's hands. #SNP24

🤝 We value immigration and the many, many people that come here and make a positive contribution, 📢 Scotland needs a fairer, coherent immigration system. ➡️ Labour must work with us to either devolve immigration policy or to work with us on a Scotland-only visa.

📢 Scotland is open for business. ➡️ Despite Westminster austerity from the Labour Party, the SNP is working to deliver a growing and vibrant economy that works for everyone in Scotland.

📢 Westminster politicians cannot boast about broad shoulders of the union whilst at the very same time deny responsibility for the financial decisions Westminster imposes. 🥀 It's time Labour was straight with the public about the challenges facing the public purse.

The hopeful promise of turning the page on the Tories has been replaced with Labour's promise of a painful politics. And Keir Starmer is eager to proclaim the worst is yet to come. The urge to take a hammer to public services is too difficult for the toolmaker's son to resist.
