The SNP has no power to "force" anything in Parliament. They lost that when most Scottish seats booted them out last year.
The SNP has threatened to 'force a vote' and bring forward legislation for the UK to recognise Palestinian statehood, in a bid to heap further pressure on Keir Starmer as he resists calls to do so thenational.scot/news/25343638.…
Good luck today, @Lionesses. Let's bring it home 🏴
"Existing venues will be protected from noise complaints from developers" This is genuinely massive. We need to stop the planning & licensing systems from getting in the way of venues operating in the way you'd expect them to. If you build near a pub, expect pub-goers.
Follow for the very latest political news! Existing venues will also be protected from noise complaints from developers who will become responsible for soundproofing politicsuk.com/licensing-refo…
If the BMA cared about patients, they wouldn't be striking at all. NHS strikes should be incredibly rare as a last resort, not a response to the resident doctors getting a massive pay rise but wanting it to be even more. They've lost public support and need to get back to work.
Due to the failure to train consultants on a new EPR system, lack of planning and action taken by the Northern General in Sheffield, we are forced to accept a derogation for 3x resident doctors for tonight's night shift (26th July) for Acute Medicine. Protecting patient safety…
The Conservative Party, they're not sending their best. They're sending idiots who can't read, or perhaps just can't remember when they were a Minister.

This afternoon I met with the UK Secretary of State for Defence @JohnHealey_MP to sign The Geelong Treaty - a historic agreement between Australia and the United Kingdom that will enable us to collaborate closely to deliver AUKUS over the next fifty years. Our close friendship…
Resident Doctors are actively trying to *increase* NHS waiting lists. That is selfish & disgusting.
Removing a trade union representative from a locum group chat and then retrospectively deleting their messages is not a good look @Leic_hospital. Trade union representatives have protection against detriment under the TULRCA. I would advise you remind Mr Butt of that.
This is the hard work of diplomacy bearing fruit. Aid will be air-dropped into Gaza. The UK will work to arrange this with Jordan & other international partners. Let's be clear, Israel MUST allow aid in over land as well, but this is a positive. gov.uk/government/new…

Resident Doctors have not had a "pay cut", they've had the largest pay rise across the entire public sector.
Hey resident doctors, remember this: You owe the NHS nothing You owe the public nothing You owe the Trusts nothing You worked hard to become highly qualified and skilled professionals, it was all you You are owed a fair wage and NOT a pay cut! Same for consultants Strike hard
Signing up to a mailing list is nowhere near the same thing as becoming an official member of a political party. For many reasons, but the key one is COST.
In 24 hours, sign-ups to 'Your Party' have hit 250,000 and climbing. With your help, we're on track to become the largest political party in the UK. Keep it going 👇👇✊ yourparty.uk Edit: Now at 250k! The numbers are rising faster than we can keep up with them.

France recognises the State of Palestine, will be interesting to see when (not if) the UK follows suit.
Fidèle à son engagement historique pour une paix juste et durable au Proche-Orient, j’ai décidé que la France reconnaîtra l’État de Palestine. J’en ferai l’annonce solennelle à l’Assemblée générale des Nations unies, au mois de septembre prochain.…
