The SNP has only met its CAMHS targets by shunting children with autism and ADHD into the void. This is a betrayal of our kids for the sake of spin. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-…

I support the immediate recognition of the state of Palestine. But that in itself will not end the war. The mass starvation, indiscriminate killing and illegal occupation must end now.

Labour Yimby are disappointed by the Government’s decision to concede to the Nimby lobby on the planning reforms this country so desperately needs. For the first time the Labour Government is backing the blockers, not the builders. 1/

"Much more to do" is an understatement. The Health Secretary is 23 percentage points below his own 95% minimum A&E standard, which itself was watered down from 98%. That tiny uptick on the far right is what he's boasting about...

Everyone arguing that the £48bn a year the UK spends on benefits for sick and disabled people is “unsustainable” should be asked how they would describe the £175bn a year (and rapidly rising) spend on pensioner benefits.

Duplicitous nonsense. Your government has decimated council funding over the last decade. The consequences are poorer & no services. You’ve cut more this year despite record funding and £4.9bn extra. You even take more tax off nurses and teachers. Where has all the money gone?

In an increasingly digital society, where technology brings distant people closer together, yet often creates distances between those who are physically close, sport proves a valuable and concrete means of bringing individuals together, providing a healthier sense of the body, of…

Horrendous news of the continued deindustrialisation of Scotland. Why did the SNP government fund 4 times as many Chinese buses than Scottish ones in the Scottish Zero Emission Bus Challenge Fund Phase 2? The SNP government standing against Scottish industry and workers.

What an outstanding Labour gain in Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse. Well done @DavyRussell4HLS A decent local man. He’ll make a great local MSP Chuffed to bits for him and the wonderful @ScottishLabour team

Choosing political ambition over principles and integrity - Scotland deserves so much better than these grifters. If he had any decency he’d call resign and call a by-election.

What a pathetic little man Nigel Farage is.

Scots will see right through the poison of Nigel Farage.

Forbes welcomes it as ‘important progress’ Swinney rages against it. And Robertson throws his toys out the pram because he couldn’t make track changes. The SNP’s response to the EU deal has been totally scattergun and exposed them as shallow opportunists.

This is what happens when a government concentrates on what matters to the public and believes in our NHS. Record investment going to the front line gets results. Not happening in Scotland despite record financial settlement for Scottish Government. I wonder why?

No worker should face abuse in their job. But airport workers do every day. This is why the Employment Rights Bill matters. #EmploymentRightsBill
