A system that diminishes the rights of people fleeing persecution isn't just impractical, it's a failure of our common humanity. Vital that once asylum seekers are granted refugee status, they are able to build their lives with certainty about their future & a sense of welcome.

An obvious attempt to undemocratically derail a bill which has already faced more scrutiny than any other private member’s bill in recent history. This is a compassionate, popular reform that the public overwhelmingly supports. Lords should be careful not to undermine the will of the Parliament.

Interesting to see so many great British patriots right now begging an American president to bankrupt one of Britain’s last remaining truly national institutions.

Most importantly, every Councillor in the Chamber set politics aside, and united in not only backing Councillor @euandavidson.bsky.social's calls to tackle antisemitism, but helped enhance some of the asks on how it's reported back - to which we're very grateful. 2/2

Mass starvation in Gaza and over 1,000 Palestinians killed while seeking aid since May. The government says the situation is intolerable yet they continue to tolerate it.

This is really awful. Peter was a hero
Peter Krykant kept the lives being lost to drugs in the public eye & shamed the Scottish gov into action. His van prevented overdoses & and continues to so as, without it, The Thistle wouldn’t exist. It was a privilege to know him. I hope he’s at peace. www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/peter-k...
Peter Krykant dies suddenly as tributes paid to pioneering Scots drugs reformer
Krykant, who battled addiction issues, was found dead at home in Falkirk. He inspired many to regard addiction as a health issue and paved the way for state-backed safe drug consumption areas

This is the attitude of the SNP to our Education staff laid bare. Utter contempt.
This is what contempt for Scotland’s teachers looks like.
A full Holyrood debate on the crisis in teaching — insecure contracts, staff shortages, burnout.
The government benches? Empty.
If this is leadership, every teacher has the right to ask: do they even care?
