🧵 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.
🏥 Hospital at Home is an outstanding service introduced by the SNP Government. ✅ More dignity for patients. ✅ More room in Hospitals. ✅ Lower costs for taxpayers. Now we’re expanding the service even further ✅ news.stv.tv/west-central/h…
Labour’s two child cap impacts nearly 30,000 children across Scotland. Next year that will end as your SNP Government once again steps in to mitigate the damage done by Westminster.
Labour are increasing your energy bills, after promising to cut them - to pay for a nuclear plant in England.
🦄 Say hello to Finnie - the official mascot for the #Glasgow2026 Commonwealth Games, designed by local kids and unveiled with a lot of excitement today. One year until yet another world class event begins in Scotland. Let the countdown begin!

⚓️ Great to visit Aberdeen today for the Tall Ships Races. The boats were magnificent and Aberdeen was buzzing with excitement. I really enjoyed meeting the local young trainee sailors who sailed all the way from France - what a life changing adventure!
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…

I was honoured to meet Father Gabriel Romanelli in Glasgow last year. Now he’s injured, and three others were killed, in an Israeli attack on his church in Gaza. This horror is not abstract. It’s about people, families being torn apart, and it must end. thetimes.com/uk/scotland/ar…

There’s strong support for a Scottish visa from Scottish businesses - which would mean we could recruit workers for our unique needs. ✅ 70% back a Scottish visa. ✅ Most say the Scottish Government understands their needs better than Westminster.👇 heraldscotland.com/news/25324809.…
🆕70% of businesses support the introduction a tailored “Scottish visa” and the vast majority think the Scottish Government should have the power to do so. 💛@theSNP has long called for this, but Westminster is standing in the way. 👇Read more: heraldscotland.com/news/25324809.…
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.
WFP Statement | #Gaza On the morning of 20 July, a 25 truck WFP convoy carrying vital food assistance crossed the Zikim border point destined for starving communities in northern Gaza. Shortly after passing the final checkpoint beyond the Zikim crossing point into Gaza, the…
Many children in Gaza need evacuation for treatment. Without it they will die. We're ready to save the lives of as many kids as we can. But we need the UK Gov to work with us. I want to work with the PM to save the lives of Palestinian children. itv.com/news/2025-07-1…
