SNP Disabled Members Convener
A crypto investor just donated Β£9 million to the Reform Party. Right now, billionaires can pour unlimited money into our elections, effectively buying our democracy. Think that's wrong? Add your name to call for a cap on donations today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...

In light of the UK Labour governmentβs decision to cut the Winter Fuel Payment and slash PIP provision, the SNP Scottish Government is delivering the support that older disabled people in Glasgow deserve. 1/4

Labour have just put the Tories in power in Angus Council.
Your most recent reminder that, if you want to keep the Tories out, the Scottish Labour party cannot be trusted with your vote.

At least three legal firms are examining ways in which they could support disabled people and their organisations to challenge some of the governmentβs proposed cuts to disability benefits in the courts.

This alone should be reason not to vote Labour next year. Their Thatcherite legacy lives on in PFI schemes that continue to rob the public purse and public sector workers to this day, due to cost the Scottish taxpayer around Β£1.1bn this year with Β£13bn still to be paid.

You do not improve employment prospects by increasing poverty.
Make sure your voice is heard - tell your MP - NO to cuts.
Write to your MP:
Jeez. A clip has emerged of Donald Trump in the Oval Office discussing how people made money in the recent market fluctuations as a result of his tariffs.
"He made two-and-a-half billion today, and he made nine hundred million, that's not bad!"

Iβm delighted to see that the SNP government has delivered over 36,000 baby boxes across NHS Grampian since they were introduced in 2017.
In total, 335,775 boxes have now been distributed to parents across Scotland since the start of the project.
President Trump walked back his steep tariffs on nearly 100 nations that had gone into effect just hours earlier, a shocking reversal that sent stocks soaring. He announced simultaneously that he would raise tariffs on Chinese imports to 125%

The SNP are investing in future generations and are committed to lifting children out of poverty.
Next year we'll go further and scrap the two child cap, taking even more children out of poverty.
Imagine how much more we could do with independence π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ

Her experiences made her determined to address the many injustices facing society.
We will carry on that fight in Christinaβs honour.
WOW - I shouldn't be surprised by Trump but somehow I didn't think this was something even he wouldn't try lol

Never forget that Labour pledged to cut energy bills by Β£300 during the election campaign and look what has happened to your bills since.
Labour lies!

Christina was the most genuine, caring and empathetic person I will ever meet.
Anyone who worked for her as she supported constituents, @snp.org and fought for independence will know how life-changing the experience was.
My thoughts are with her family.
Thank you for everything, boss.
Everyone at the SNP DMG is devasted to hear of passing of Christina. She was a political force of nature and a true friend and ally to the disabled community.

I am devastated at the passing of Christina McKelvie MSP, Minister for Drugs and Alcohol Policy and one of the kindest and most generous people I have ever met.
A force of nature, Christina enhanced the lives of all around her. My deepest sympathy to Keith, Jack and Lewis.
