I strongly resist the galvanised bot behaviour which lacks facts and encourages mob mentality - this is a disgrace and disservice to members of our community as a whole. To those most impacted, they deserve the dignity, respect and support to continue to access important community services 1/2

In Government the SNP have delivered to help households while Westminster whistles - the free bus pass, free prescriptions, the Baby Box, free eye tests, the Scottish Child Payment - all putting money in the pockets of the people of Scotland

A great start to Erskine Community Allotments SCIO- Scottish Registered Charity No. Sc052678 Open Day!
Good to catch up with Ian and all at the allotment to hear about how important this space is for the community and the exciting plans for expansion.
Followed by our councillors surgery!

Dignity in dying should be holistic - that includes people having the right to choose. That choice should not be palliative or assisted dying, it should be personalised and allow for all care and empowerment for the individual.

The whole sector put under threat due to the incompetence & ignorance of politicians who have absolutely no care for the reality of the pressure facing the social care sector. The impact due to dangerous and damaging visa policies is unforgivable.

Grangemouth has a proud industrial heritage, and I will leave no stone unturned to secure its long-term future.
Project Willow shows whatβs possible - with our Β£87m investment and working together with the private sector, we can create good jobs and grow Scotlandβs economy.

Two years ago, Labour opposed the Internal Market Act - which is nothing short of an undemocratic power grab from Westminster.
Today, Labour have just voted together with the Tories against protecting the powers of our Parliament.

Quote from Councillor Michelle Campbell, Convener of the Infrastructure, Land and Environment Policy Board. Quote says Engagement with the local community is a key part of delivering the upgrades to these spaces β to ensure we create places that reflect what our communities want and need.
Our play park investment programme has already delivered refurbishments to play parks in every council ward area and this next stage will ensure we continue to enhance the outdoor play experience for young people throughout Renfrewshire.
There is a photo of councillor Campbell beside the quote.
Designs for three play parks that will soon be upgraded to provide fun and welcoming places for young people and families in Renfrewshire have been revealed.

π§΅ 1/ @shonarobison.bsky.social has just introduced your SNP Scottish Budget - a Budget that delivers progress for Scotland, by Scotland.
It will make a real difference to peopleβs lives and builds strong foundations for a better future.
Hereβs a summary π

π 6/ When I became First Minister, I said my top priority is ending child poverty - and this Budget delivers real progress on this.
On top of our measures like the Scottish Child Payment, we will end Labourβs two-child cap - lifting over 15,000 children out of poverty.
04.12.2024 17:15 β π 60 π 23 π¬ 3 π 1
π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ 7/ This is a package thatβs pro-growth, anti-poverty, and always on Scotlandβs side.
Iβm proud of this Budget, but it can only enable a brighter future with the support of the Scottish Parliament.
I urge other parties to back the investment Scotland deserves.
