The impact of conflict on children has devastating life changing consequences. Scotland has designed and implemented polices aimed at protecting those seeking refuge. This Tory Govt is more interested in photo ops than the right policies. #Ukraine

Press freedom is facing existential threat from all corners of the world and the UK is no exception
This Tory government and its actions are not affirming these rights, they are repudiating them and this should not be allowed #WorldPressFreedomDay

Thank you @NicolaSturgeon for sharing your menopause experience and helping to normalise conversations.
It is crucial that we tackle the mystery and stigma.
Menopause is a fact of life! 💜

Thank you to those who came to our busy joint surgery today in #CoatbridgeWest. Great start to a Summer constituency tour.. (minus the 🌞 obviously !) @theSNP @lesmit @fultonsnp. Next week we will be in #Stepps area of the constituency. Details posted soon!
Very successful joint surgery with @fultonsnp and @StevenBonnarSNP this morning. Great to speak with lots of constituents face to face in Coatbridge West!
The Tories haven’t won an election in Scotland since 1955 yet continue to try and dictate the terms of our democracy.
That’s the scandal.
Northern Ireland Protocol raised in Holyrood at #FMQs
@NicolaSturgeon : “As FM of Scotland - If I could get a protocol that would allow Scotland to trade freely across the single market I would take that in a heartbeat."
This morning in my role as @theSNP Cabinet Office spokesperson, I asked the Paymaster General about publishing the resignation letter of Lord Geidt. I think the pressure of being sent out to defend the Prime Minister is taking its toll, because his response was quite something!
Getting ready for First Ministers Questions in the chamber, filling up nicely - we got a wave from @ScotGovFM @NicolaSturgeon.
Democracy cannot be held back. A referendum will happen.
🚨 Boris Johnson’s ethics advisor has just quit.
❌ Boris Johnnson has now ditched ethics rules from the ministerial code and lost his ethics chief.
🏴 Scotland can do so much better than this. We can build a greener, fairer, better Scotland with independence.
My face says it all. Scotland will be far better off away from Westminster and all those who think they get to decide what Scotland can do. We can do so much better. https://twitter.com/ScotNational/status/1537052038869270529
'That's just nonsense!': This Tory MP had the SNP's @kirstenoswald cracking up with his ridiculous anti-independence rant.
Gratitude & respect to those who worked tirelessly to ground this inhumane deportation attempt tonight. The stress those on the flight have been subjected to though is unforgivable.
Now we must get ready to resist the all out Tory assault on the ECHR that is surely coming https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1536820752925835271
BREAKING: The first deportation flight due to take asylum seekers to Rwanda will not be taking off tonight following a series of last-minute legal appeals, the Home Office has confirmed.

20% of UK adults are unpaid carers.
The majority of the UK public think the Gov should provide more support to these carers, and I agree.
That's why I'm so proud of the Carer's Allowance Supplement introduced by @SocSecScot to top-up the UK DWP's Carer's allowance.
#CarersWeek
Menopause is a serious health condition impacting many in our society. This Govt needs to recognise #menopause is a serious health issue and address it as such. https://fb.watch/dxPyi18n97/
GOOOOOAALLL SCOTLAND! Scott McKenna doubles our lead!
GOOOOOAAALLL SCOTLAND!!! Anthony Ralston!
Scotland 1-0 Armenia.
Over 1 million people are suffering from heart failure and yet, this #UKGov are lagging behind in prioritising innovative treatments that will put the quality of life of patients at the very forefront.
I will support any moves to improve outcomes for our heart patients ♥️
I attended the #CarersWeek drop-in to hear the experiences of carers and the challenges that they continue to face whilst looking after their loved ones. More needs to be done to support carers in the UK.
Violence against ALL women needs to end.
The #IstanbulConvention is recognised as the gold standard in tackling this violence. The UK gov needs to ratify it without reservations to protect ALL women #AllWomenMeansAllWomen
"In Monday's confidence vote, @borisjohnson secured the support of just two out of Scotland's 59 MPs. That means out of the massed ranks of his Scottish Conservative colleagues, he got as much support as there are pandas in Edinburgh Zoo." 🐼
He needs to go.

Today I questioned this government about the cuts they implement without thinking about the consequences they have. Not just in the UK but across the commonwealth.
🏴 Scotland has the energy, we just need the power.
To paraphrase - ‘those whom the gods seek to destroy they first make utterly ridiculous’ https://twitter.com/PippaCrerar/status/1530569025390092288

I questioned the PM on his despicable treatment of staff and his response was utterly lacking. Clearly demonstrates how this government are detached from the people they pretend to represent.
The #SueGrayReport lays bare the scale of rule breaking that @BorisJohnson presided over. Rules that he lied to parliament were followed at all times. A culture of drinking and debauchery in No10, while the rest of us stayed home. His only option should be to resign #PMQs
So an “independent” report, yet number 10 calls in the author, for, let us call it a friendly chat, oh really! This sums up Johnson’s Govt, sleekit and underhand. Johnson and number 10 should never have gone anywhere near Gray until the report was published. https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1527961357349421058

Historic day for The people of North Lanarkshire. With an excellent local @theSNP manifesto to implement that can have a positive impact across all our communities, and and energised group of local councillors that are determined to drive the change desired and required. 👏🏻
Councillors have been elected to senior positions today.
Cllr Jordan Linden is the new leader of the council and Cllr Tracy Carragher is depute leader.
Cllr Agnes Magowan has been elected as Provost and Cllr Anne Thomas is Depute Provost.

Crass and grotesque in equal measure. https://twitter.com/Mike_Fabricant/status/1526865527246831616
U.K. Government is co-guarantor…… now acting unilaterally.
This isn’t democracy. It isn’t what the people of North Lanarkshire voted for. Write to your local North Lanarkshire ward councillor and express your views before the formation of the council administration.
If SNP have 36 seats and Labour 32 why do NL Labour think they should lead the council again? They think that North Lanarkshire ppl should suffer 5 more years of Lab/Tory & the BUP. 2 elections lost = 10 yrs in power. WOW!
Great discussion all round. Interesting afternoon meeting with the Finnish delegation and a genuine warmth for Scotland appreciated for sure 🏴🇫🇮
Good craic briefing a delegation of Finnish journalists with @StevenBonnarSNP and @DougChapmanSNP on Scotland, independence, NATO, EU membership and more. Great chat with like minded friends 🏴 🇫🇮 🇪🇺
I’m standing up for the people of East Dunbartonshire against this Tory-made cost of living crisis.
Crowns and thrones got pride of place yesterday whilst my constituents were forgotten 👇
🇪🇺 Happy #EuropeDay from all of us at the SNP.
🏴 Scotland is a proudly European nation and we firmly reject the isolationist, right-wing Brexit imposed on us against our will.
👇🏼 Here's what senior EU figures said about Scotland re-joining the EU.

Many congratulations to @moneillsf and @MaryLouMcDonald on a truly historic result for Sinn Féin. I wish Michelle & her colleagues - & all Northern Ireland’s elected representatives - the very best for what comes next & hope to see the NI government functioning again soon.
A phenomenal sight - 36 SNP councillors in @nlcpeople vs Labours 31
The people have been saying for years we’re an administration in waiting. The wait is over we’re now seeking to form the 1st ever SNP administration in NLC.
It’s time for change.
#LocalElections2022 #Change
Quite a day. Weekend to breathe before returning to Westminster.
Outstanding wins for @theSNP in every nook and cranny in Scotland.
Scotland has rejected Boris Johnston and the tories, sending him a message that could not be any clearer.
The party is over.

First result up in Airdrie & Shotts and a phenomenal first preference win for @theSNP’s Michael Coyle with @PaulDiMascioSNP getting a cracking result to be elected. Hard work pays off and so pleased to see them back!
