That's that bad SNP government again, Mitigating the worst of the energy crisis for our pensioners.
MORE than 880,000 pensioners are set to receive help with heating bills this winter, the Scottish Government has announced.
Why are unionists so against these policies, Yet eagerly take the help?

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

Labour are dancing to the tune of Reform's cruel agenda on asylum.
These proposals, including confiscating personal belongings, will punish people who have already endured unimaginable hardship and will create further divisions in our communities.

I might understand supporting Labour in England if your only alternative was Reform (it's really not).
But in Scotland and Wales? There's no such excuse. The SNP, Scottish Greens, Plaid are all better choices.

There is a dog whistle called “golden ticket”
They are “stopping “ something that never existed
If anyone spoke to asylum seekers.. (I worked with them) .. they are given less than the bare minimum & are housed in flea pits .. it’s actually deeply inhumane

Removing asylum support. Seizing belongings. Deporting entire families, including children.
Labour are not just paving the path to a Reform government. Reform may as well already be in power.
This government has no moral compass — and it should be ashamed of its inhumanity.
