🧵 Tackling NHS waiting times is one of my top priorities, and while we still have lots to do, we’re making progress. I’m happy to share that we’re delivering more appointments than we promised - helping more people get the care they need, faster. 👇
The scenes in Gaza are horrifying to watch. Israel is deliberately starving civilians. Children are dying as food and aid are blocked. Nothing can justify it. Enough is enough. The UK government must force Israel to let aid into Gaza, and the killing must stop. Now.
Workers retiring in 2050 will be £800 a year worse off than today’s pensioners. Westminster is failing generation after generation and Labour's got no plan to change that. Independence gives Scotland the power to protect pensions, invest in our future, and end Westminster’s…

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.

If Keir Starmer believes in a respectful relationship with @scotgov, he needs his Environment Secretary to retract his totally inaccurate comments about Scotland’s water. Our rivers are cleaner, our bills are lower - and public ownership delivers for people, not profit. 👇
Despite what Labour are claiming, Scottish water is world renowned. 87% of Scotland’s entire water environment is assessed by SEPA as having a ‘high’ or ‘good’ classification for water quality – up from 82% in 2014. Public ownership is not just possible, it works in Scotland!
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…

This statement @WFP is unbearable to read. The international community must require the Israeli Government to stop these attacks and there must be a ceasefire now to allow humanitarian aid to flow.
