By no coincidence, Farage and reform are coming to Falkirk on the 6th of December for their Scottish Assembly. On the same day local organisations and unions have organised a unity march and rally 😏

Public services are the foundation of a fair Scotland, yet too many workers delivering them are living in poverty. Change happens when we stand together and demand investment in people, not cuts. #ScotlandDemandsBetter

Cruel cuts to disability support: the Prime Minister needs to hear from your MP Our social security system should be there for us all, especially when we need it most. But the UK government is talking about making huge cuts to disabled people’s support when they’re already three ...

πŸ“£ Almost 1 in 5 people claiming Universal Credit and disability payments have used a food bank in the last month.

Proposed cuts to disability support risk driving more people to food banks.

Please ask your MP to urge the Prime Minister to think again πŸ‘‰ action.trussell.org.uk/disability-c...

Pleased the Scottish Govt have listened to @trussellscot.bsky.social & End Child Poverty coalition campaigners and will use their powers to scrap the cruel two child cap.

Hopefully the UK child poverty review will recommend scrapping the cap across the UK!
