The PIP and UC bill is an attack on disabled people.

I will be voting against the bill today to make clear disabled people matter and that I recognise the additional costs of navigating a world built for neurotypical, healthy people.

We absolutely cannot have a Trump state visit.

We stand with Ukraine.

Anas Sarwar said he’d deliver the justice #Waspi women deserve

👉 paid less than their male counterparts
👉 forced to resign when they had kids
👉 winter fuel payment removed
👉 not informed timeously of pension age changes

Is this the justice 1950s born women deserve?

In Aberdeen, refugees are welcome. #RefugeesWelcome please share and show the strength of feeling there is in Aberdeen - and if you’re free at 11 and able to be at Marischal College with Refugees Welcome signs I’m sure that would be appreciated

Sharing from another place: we have been alerted to the risk of individuals seeking refuge in our city being at risk of arrest and detention at their routine sign in apt with Police Scotland tomorrow at Marischal College from 11am. These individuals are at risk of deportation under the #RwandaScheme

Really grateful for our NHS once again today. Well on the way to recovery for my dislocated kneecap. Just gotta do what the physio says now to ensure I stay on track 💪🏼

Excellent day today at The SNP North East Scotland regional assembly discussing independence, the North East’s priorities and campaigning to win the General Election.

Hi @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com how offended would you be if someone pictures you and PTerry talking as like a conversation between Aziraphale and Crowley. Obviously with you as Crowley… (do you think I can get away with saying “asking for a friend”?)

Curled up cat. Looks like a prawn. It’s impossible to tell which bit is which, apart from one curled up toe sticking out.

Beans! Toe beans of a cat pointing directly at the camera. The rest of the cat is blurred in the background.

A Bengal cat sitting with her back paws up in the air. She looks beautiful and idiotic simultaneously.

Princess Zelda is ridiculous

Aberdeen North gains bucksburn and dyce, which actually makes more sense with the city boundaries. It loses a chunk of the city centre to Aberdeen South.

I spend most of my time fighting for a fairer, better, more equal independent Scotland, playing with my kids, gaming, and sewing.

Bengal kitten curled up and looking utterly beautiful as ever

Bengal cat sitting like a statue, looking straight at the camera. She’s so gorgeous I want to eat her.

Hello! I’m new! Thank you for the invite :) I’m the SNP MP for Aberdeen North and here is my beautiful cat, Zelda.
