I’ve never shed a tear at a budget before, been angry, yes but no tears. I cried when @shonarobison.bsky.social mitigated the 2 child cap. I know what poverty does to kids but it also harms our economy.. poorer health, low value work, mental ill health. We’ve bought better health for 000’s of Scots.

📣 Eradicating child poverty is the Scottish Government's top priority.
🥀 But when Labour came into power in Westminster, they kept the brutal two-child cap.
🏴 Our budget will end it in Scotland, lifting over 15,000 Scottish children out of poverty.

🏥 Our budget will deliver £2 billion more for Scotland's NHS - taking funding to a record £21 billion.
🩺 We’ll make it easier for people to access GP appointments, improve A&E, and ensure more Scots get the care they need in good time.

The biggest mistake Scots made was voting No to Independence in 2014.
We are paying for that every single day
As a nation we are stagnating under this Union and having our assets stripped in front of our very eyes.

Bluesky can suspend Nigel Farage in less than 36 hours.
But the Police can't question him over the riots he incited, even after 5 months.

But it feels to me that our community has now fully reassembled here on Bluesky - and actually more cohesively than before.

I’m so glad Andrew Tate was denied a voice here. Why should we be confronted with his aggressive misogyny and homophobia? Why should he get to spew his hatred anywhere? Of course we can reject him and all he stands for. It needs to be our response more often.

Let us tell you about Scotland.
We produce oil but soon to have no refinery.
We produce electricity but make no money from it.
We have ports but cannot trade from them.
That's only the half of it. Wait till we tell you about the nuclear weapons in populated areas!
