Proud that Scotland is an inspiration to an inspiring mayor - best of luck to #Mamdani and his team. The SNP have plenty more progressive ideas you can borrow 😉

Labour is putting social care at risk. The SNP is investing to protect it, because we know it matters to you.

New York is one of the world’s most diverse cities – even more diverse than Kelvin! – and it is right that that be reflected in its politics. I warmly congratulate Zohran Mamdani on his election as Mayor of New York, becoming the first Muslim and first South Asian to hold the position. 1/2

With waiting times down 7.3% and a record number of hip and knee operations being performed, today we're investing money in orthopaedics, cariology and general surgery to deliver more appointments and reduce waiting times.
That's your SNP Scottish Government investing in your priorities.

If Douglas Alexander is serious about defeating racism by standing together, he should have a word with his own Labour colleagues about their own rhetoric.

A few thoughts as we reach the end of Hate Crime Awareness Week. I have the privilege of representing one of the most diverse constituencies in Scotland, and see every day the strength, joy, and beauty our diversity brings.

🏘️ A tale of two governments: Labour now plans to slash the affordable housing target in London from 35% to 20%, while fewer than 4000 new homes have been completed there in the first hald of this year – well short of the annual target of 88,000.

Absolutely inspiring speech from the First Minister to wrap up SNP conference, and a strong - and timely - reminder of our values. Building cohesive and welcoming communities for EVERYONE in Scotland is at the heart of what the SNP is all about.

Today's Tory motion continues their pattern of wrongly blaming migrants for everything - but they can't even get the basics right. When it comes to issues as sensitive as migration, getting the facts right really matters.

I am relieved to see this, and hope that they are all well. The details of detainees being mistreated in Israeli custody are absolutely chilling, and Israel must be held accountable under international law.
BREAKING: The three remaining Scottish activists who took part in the Global Sumud Flotilla have all been released from Israel

This morning I wrote to the Foreign Secretary and First Minister urging them to work to ensure the quick, safe return of flotilla participants detained by Israeli forces, including my constituent. I am deeply concerned for the welbeing of the detainees and for their families at this worrying time.

Last night’s attack on the global sumud flotilla by the Israeli navy is extremely concerning. The Scottish Government has been in touch with the FCDO, which has lobbied the Israeli Government to respect international law and to protect the safety of everyone on board. 1/2

I share the horror many of my constituents are feeling at the news of the attack on a Manchester synagogue. My thoughts are with the victims and their families, and with Jewish people across my constituency and the country on this holiest of days in the Jewish calendar. 1/2

Horrified and heartbroken by the attack on a synagogue in Manchester, on Yom Kippur, the holiest time in the Jewish calendar.

Antisemitism is an evil we must confront and stand resolutely against.

This is abhorrent, and it isn't the migration system Scotland needs. We need a system that is humane (people aren't numbers), welcoming (we don't want to put people off coming) and efficent (years in limbo is bad for individuals and employers) - and we can only deliver that system with independence.
“Who can feel settled in a system this arbitrary or a state this cruel? I suspect that no matter what my immigration status is, I may never feel secure here. My husband is right; we will need a back-up plan.”

Yesterday’s UK Government announcement that family reunification for refugees are being suspended is a cruel and inhumane policy. The UK Government can’t reduce illegal immigration by closing down the few safe and legal routes for people seeking sanctuary. 1/3

🚆 From today @snp.org is putting more money back in your pocket by abolishing peak rail fares on ScotRail trains.
This means a return from Glasgow to Edinburgh will now cost £16.80, that’s 48% less compared to last week.
