The people of Scotland know that John Swinney and his divided party are tired and out of ideas. It’s time for a new direction and new leadership for Scotland with Scottish Labour. Read my The Daily Record column here 👇 dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…

Reform UK is proposing a "Britannia card" that would let wealthy foreigners pay a £250k fee to move to the UK, and live here exempt from all tax on their foreign assets. What they don't say: it would cost the UK £34bn. Thread:

Zia Yusuf obviously doesn't think women who work 2-3 part-time jobs do "hard graft". Tax freebies for their mates while those at the bottom get nothing #politicslive

Labour’s industrial strategy delivers for Scotland - unlocking economic potential, raising wages, boosting living standards, and delivering the growth we need.

“What’s that Skippy? Nigel Farage is running out of donations? He wants me to spread the word that if foreign billionaires come to Britain on a big luxury boat, they can have a tax cut?”

I don't blame this guy, I blame the Reform Party for clearly refusing to vet a single candidate or give adequate training before putting these individuals in key positions in the council.

Farage tries to disown Brexit, but he spent decades working towards it. He claims others failed to deliver his Brexit but he did a deal with Johnson in 2019, so his man was in No.10 along with his mate Cummings. The Brexit disaster was Farage’s creation. He needs to own it.

The Cabinet Secretary failed to set out where the £40m earmarked to support Dundee University will come from. As ever, the SNP's response was to pass the buck for the current situation in Scotland's universities which are, of course, a devolved issue.

Paying for toilets is an indirect tax on women, who need to use them more often due to biology, pregnancy, periods, menopause and caring duties. It’s a gendered cost that hits hardest when you can least afford it.

I’m old enough to remember Nigel Farage saying he loathes disloyalty and therefore is wary of defectors. Now he leads a party of opportunistic fly-by-nights.

This is why local press is so important – and I'm saying that as former councillor. We need local media to hold elected officials to account. A huge well done to Lauren Monaghan for her work.
