The upcoming Animal Welfare Strategy must include a clear plan to phase out cages for hens and farrowing crates for pigs.
These crates are so small that sows can’t even turn around. These practices must end and farmers must be supported with the transition.

Another step backwards on the climate from the Scottish Government today.
The First Minister has confirmed to @ariane-burgess.bsky.social that the 2030 target for peatland restoration has been dropped and replaced with a weak 2040 target.
What is going on?

The SNP's wrecking amendment to this motion has sadly passed, confirming that the Scottish Government no longer opposes the Rosebank oil field application. A huge step backwards and a sad day for Scotland's reputation on climate action.
Under Nicola Sturgeon & Humza Yousaf the Scottish Government rightly opposed the proposed Rosebank oil field.
John Swinney has sadly dropped that opposition and tried to avoid taking a position at all.
That's not good enough, so tomorrow the @scottishgreens.org will force a vote.

Did you know the government spends £2.7 billion a year on tax breaks for oil & gas companies?
I've written to Rachel Reeves to tell her to end this scandal: stop propping up declining oil & gas companies and back workers instead

Over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli settlers and soldiers in the West Bank and East Jerusalem in the last two years.
According to the UN, October was the deadliest month for settler violence since it started keeping track in 2006.
End the occupation.
