🥀 Labour are threat to pensioners and low earners alike. 🙄 It is difficult to see who they are governing for… apart from the bankers of course.
🧑🎓 37,805 Scottish students were accepted to Scottish Universities last year - the highest number on record! 📈 There was an 11% increase in acceptances from Scotland’s most deprived areas. 🏴 Unlike Labour, the SNP will always fight to keep tuition fees free in Scotland.
Humza and Nadia’s words highlight a horrifying reality. The deliberate, calculated starvation of the Palestinian people is a despicable breach of international law. It is vital that the UK Government use every lever possible to allow unrestricted aid access into Gaza immediately.
Nadia's cousin Sally, and her four children are being starved by Israel. Millions in Gaza are being deliberately starved while Israel withholds food mere kilometres away. Words are not enough. Governments must act and force Israel to open the borders and allow aid to flow in.
Labour are increasing the cost of your energy bills after promising to cut them. independent.co.uk/news/business/…
🏴 Scotland generates more electricity than it needs, exporting over £1.5bn worth last year alone. 📈 Renewables generated a record amount of electricity in 2024 - up 13% from 2023. 💪 We have the energy we just need the power.
🇺🇸 For the first time since 2008, US nuclear weapons have reportedly returned to British soil. 🥀 Labour’s insistence on pandering to the US and Trump is nothing short of embarrassing. 🏴 Independence is the only way Scotland will ever escape this lunacy.
UK Government Ministers talking down Scotland while (obviously) lying through their teeth on the telly! Nothing new there then...🏴
My letter to UK Gov Minister Steve Reed asking him to retract his false statements about the condition of water in Scotland. IWC was able to report we’re in a much better position than rUk with 87% “high” or “good” status. Public ownership works. scottishgov-newsroom.prgloo.com/correspondence…
I think everybody is getting thoroughly sick of the UK Government constantly lying about Scotland. thenational.scot/news/25332487.…
🤑 A Reform Mayor has recently increased his personal expenses allowance by a staggering 600%, despite promising to cut costs for taxpayers. 🤯 Who would have guessed that Reform were a party of self-serving charlatans?!?!?!?!?
🇬🇧 Unemployment up. Wages down. Growth stalled. 🚨 This isn’t bad luck, it’s the result of a broken Westminster system that fails working people time and time again. 🏴 We need independence!
The biggest example of misinformation during the 2024 General Election:
Keir Starmer tells the Liaison Committee he was 'very worried about misinformation' at the last election!
📮 Got this through my door on Saturday. An excellent leaflet from @LloydAMelville - without a doubt the stand out candidate for Angus South. 🗳️🏴
🤝 I recently had the privilege of visiting the new Annexe at Kirrie Connections to meet with Graham Galloway and the rest of the remarkable team there. 👏 The work they do supporting people with dementia and their families is truly inspiring. Huge credit to all involved.
🧵1/ I’m in politics because I believe Scotland can do so much better with independence. In 2014, we imagined a fairer, more confident country. That vision didn’t fade - in fact, and it’s more urgent and needed more than ever.

⚠️ There is a yellow weather warning in place for heavy rain across Scotland this weekend. ⚠ 🙏 Please take care, and follow Met Office guidance: weather.metoffice.gov.uk/warnings-and-a…
🚨 Reform have announced that they would tear up Scotland's renewables contracts. 👀 Could this have anything to do with £2.3million of donations from oil and gas interests, highly polluting industries, and climate science deniers?
🚨 REMINDER: I'm looking for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to join my constituency team as a Research Officer. 👇 More information below. davedooganmp.scot/post/vacancy-r…
Brilliant visit to the Scottish Crannog Centre at Loch Tay last week, a truly fascinating insight into iron age life in Scotland. A Huge thanks to Mike and the rest of the team for the warm welcome and expert tour. I would highly recommend a visit - crannog.co.uk
In an act of desperation Reeves has announced the last gamble of every failed chancellor - financial deregulation. Risky lending, fewer safeguards, and less consumer protection. We all know what happens when Westminster gambles: the bubble bursts and taxpayers pick up the bill.
