Scotland’s economy is growing while the UK’s is declining.
Latest data shows onshore GDP grew by 0.2% between August and October, and business investment is at a 20-year high.
There is more to do and we will keep working towards a stronger economy, with higher living standards.

It's bizarre that some Scots would prefer having the English Nationalist and Racist as their Prime Minister!
This is about as far as irony can go.
Absolutely hilarious!

A fascinating and revealing thread.
People from mining areas don't want the pits to reopen. Mining is hard, dangerous work.
What they want is the highly paid jobs that enable their communities to flourish.

Okay, I can't let this one go. I live in Ireland, not the UK, but the use of this image by a supposedly socialist party is so stupid and offensive, I'm going to get stuck in.
Let me explain to you why any experienced illustrator/designer could have stopped you making so many miserable mistakes. 1/

Today is #RLSDay which marks the birthday of the Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson who would have been 175 today.
It's also a good day to remember that it is NOT actually his birthday because in 1891 he gave it away to a young girl because she didn't like her birthday. 🧵

Nigel Farage never did answer why he met the Russian Ambassador.
All he did was call the interviewer a nutcase.
This interview is a real insight in to how little Nigel Farage likes being asked about his ties to Russia.
