Another extended family member killed as he went to the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation for food. Ahmed couldn't bear to see his child without milk. They killed him, as they have so many others. Please listen & share these words from Nadia's cousin Sally who is in Gaza.

The Westminster system made people poorer with austerity and Brexit - and now it’s trying to distract from those failures by scapegoating people who have been through unimaginable hardship.   It is pathetic, it is cowardly and I will have no part in it. #RefugeesWelcome

No carbon storage jobs nor investment. No offshore wind jobs nor investment. A cliff-edge economy for Aberdeen. A tragic Farage tribute act.

Peak rail fares in Scotland will be scrapped tomorrow by The SNP Government.

🚂 Peak fares are now scrapped! 🎫 From today, all ScotRail customers will pay the same fare on their journeys no matter when they travel. 💷 This means an anytime day return ticket from Dunfermline to Edinburgh will cost just £8.50! 👉 Find out more: shorturl.at/pcR9E

We have scrapped peak rail fares from ScotRail services – helping keep more money in people’s pockets. First Minister @johnswinney and Transport Secretary Fiona Hyslop met ScotRail staff to hear how this will make train travel cheaper and simpler. gov.scot/news/cheaper-a…

While bills rise and Westminster sits back, I am focusing on your priorities. We ended peak rail fares to make your commute cheaper - putting more money in your pocket. That’s the difference the SNP makes. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

That’s peak fares away…for good.

The Scottish Attainment Challenge is helping to eradicate child poverty by giving pupils from the most deprived areas the right support at school. First Minister John Swinney told education leaders he would drive further progress so more children have the chance to succeed.

Thank you First Minister John Swinney for your principled stance and for the candid discussion reflecting the historic bonds between our two peoples 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇵🇸

🧵 People across Scotland are struggling - money is tight, bills are up, and hope can feel in short supply. My job is to focus on your priorities, deliver real action on the cost of living, and offer hope for a better future. Short thread on how we will do that. 👇

First Minister John Swinney has set out how the Scottish Government will continue to deliver for the people of Scotland. ⬇️

Today Scotland raises the Palestinian flag outside our Government building, St Andrew's House. Alongside a series of tangible measures announced today, we are showing our solidarity with the people of Gaza in the face of a horrific genocide. 📹 credit STV News

Let’s be clear - a genocide is unfolding in Gaza as a result of Israel’s actions. We all have a moral and legal responsibility to act, and Scotland will play its part. Today I have set out a range of diplomatic, economic and humanitarian measures. Read below for more. 🧵

We will deliver new humanitarian aid: ⚪️ £400,000 funding towards a new field hospital for Gaza, designed in Scotland. ⚪️ £600,000 to the UN’s humanitarian fund for food, medicine and shelter. ⚪️ Medical treatment in Scotland for up to 20 injured children from Gaza.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇵🇸 I am proud that Scottish Parliament has overwhelmingly voted to call for the recognition of the State of Palestine. Scotland stands proudly in solidarity with the people of Gaza in the face of genocide.

Michael Shanks MP thanks for pointing out how cool it is to be Denmark! - EU Membership (without the Euro so fiscally sovereign)! - In charge of their own energy resources! - 9th best global GDP (PPP) $83,454 (UK is $63,661 - 28th in the world) - all because they are INDEPENDENT!

While Westminster is in chaos, your The SNP government is delivering progress. ✅ Cheaper rail fares ✅ More NHS operations ✅ More GPs and paramedics ✅ Funding to build 36,000 more affordable homes. ✅ Measures against the genocide in Gaza. Join us: snp.org/join
