Free tuition.
Free prescriptions.
Scottish Child Payment.
Lowest council tax bills in the UK.
Peak rail fares gone for good.
Child poverty falling.

That is our SNP record and proof that self-government works.

Imagine how much more we could do with the powers of independence.

Scottish Government to sponsor care workers in defiance of Labour visa ban THE Scottish Government will sponsor UK visas for care workers to get around Labour's ban, John Swinney has announced.

Excellent example of The SNP working within the devolved powers of the Scottish Parliament to mitigate the British Governmentโ€™s harmful approach to migration ๐Ÿ’›

We could do so much much more with ALL the powers.

140,000 affordable homes built under @thesnpmedia.bsky.social government.
100,000 of those homes for social renting.

Graphic with John Swinney MSP speaking at a podium. Text reads: โ€œNo-one else will do a better job of caring for this beautiful country and the people who live here โ€” and I mean all the people who live here.โ€ Background is bright pink with SNP and Scottish flag logos at the bottom.

No one will care more for this country or its people than the SNP.

Scotland works best when everyone who lives here is included, valued and supported. #SNP25

Westminster caused this cost of living crisis - and theyโ€™re unable and unwilling to fix it.

โ€œIโ€™m old enough to remember when mainstream British politicians, who should know better, stirred up racial hatred as a path to power. Youโ€™re old enough to remember too because it was last Tuesday. And it was Robert Jenrickโ€

Is Britain's inequality really decreasing?

Right-wing commentators claim inequality in Britain is falling. It isnโ€™t. In this video, I expose the real story behind Britainโ€™s growing inequality and why official data is misleading, as well as suggesting what we need to do to tackle this issue. youtu.be/WhFPzDWOQzk?...
