In many constituencies across Scotland, we are on the verge of winning against the SNP.

But wherever you are, every vote for the Scottish Liberal Democrats on the second peach ballot will deliver change with fairness at its heart.
The Conservatives and Reform are in a race to the right.

Labour have wasted a huge opportunity on policies like the family farm tax and their jobs tax on businesses.

Meanwhile Liberal Democrats are winning again, with more councillors, a record number of MPs and more to come.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

The language of far-right division doesn’t win elections. A positive and inclusive vision does.

That’s just common sense.
