Waspi women will get no compensation, says Pat McFadden, Labour Minister for DWP. It would be neither practical or fair. This makes Labour the Party of Injustice. No different to Tories at all.

Lesley Riddoch: Scotland’s team have given us much-needed hope – now it’s our turn So that’s what it feels like. Hope flooding a country. I don’t need to mention the cause. The whole of Scotland is still buzzing

Watching Kenny McLean, radio commentators urged caution - ready to settle for just good enough. And then a man with a reputation for caution lifted his head, spotted a possibility, trusted himself & smashed every mediocre expectation of Scots to smithereens.

Scotland is the only UK nation that is reducing child poverty β€” Scottish National Party The Labour Government are putting more children into poverty. It's time they changed course and followed Scotland's lead.

Child poverty rose in Labour-run England, but it fell in SNP-run Scotland.

Analysis by the Child Poverty Action Group puts this down to the Scottish Child Payment.

It's time Labour followed Scotland's lead.

The transatlantic alliance and NATO are over. Scotland's future is with 500 million other Europeans. Scotland has nothing to gain & everything to lose by shackling itself to a delusional UK that robs us of our natural wealth & refuses to accept the new geopolitical reality.

With the Unionists working ever closer together in Scotland, we need to back The SNP and Scottish Greens - or face watching our Parliament neutered.

Why would a country with such vast renewable resources - clean, safe, never endingοΏΌ - even consider building costly and dangerous nuclear power stations?

He’s closed Grangemouth.
He’s giving billions to the South East of England.
Removed 80billion contract from Edinburgh university to give to Oxford.

Some on benefits are 'taking the mickey', says minister The work and pensions minister says the welfare system needs reforming to encourage young people to work if they can.

Some on benefits are 'taking the mickey', says UK minister.

Some may do so, millions do not but will be victimised by cuts.

What about those abusing the tax system, govt procurement, buying honours, impoverishing people with profiteering, selling dud products, crashing companies?

My government is right behind the renewable energy revolution which is bringing jobs and investment all over Scotland.

Anas Sarwar wants me to support ultra-expensive nuclear plants, but let me make this crystal clear: we will not be doing that.

The future is with renewables.

Fact check: Why is so much Scottish salmon exported via Heathrow? CLAIM: β€œWhy on earth are we exporting major Scottish products, whether that’s salmon or whisky or anything else, via Heathrow?” - Angus…

Scotch Whisky is ALREADY 25% of all UK's Food and Drink Exports. On its own. Just Scotch Whisky.

Then we've got Salmon, Seafood, Wet Fish, Scotch Beef and Lamb, Dairy (ice cream, cheese, milk), Biscuits, Jams, Gin, Vodka, Beer and Tunnock's Teacakes.

Why on earth isn't Scotland Independent?

The UK is definitely heading for a hard right English nationalist take over of government. The Union as traditionally understood is over. At best, Scotland can act as an airbag in the car crash of English politics, but the problem with that is the car still crashes & the airbag gets burst.

The Scottish Parliament has just voted to pass the SNP Government's budget at stage one.

Our budget includes a record Β£21 billion for the NHS and scraps Labour's two-child cap.

The only parties not to vote for these policies were Labour and the Tories.
