Great to meet up with the two new SNP Councillors in Glasgow, Mhairi Hunter and Donna McGill.
Tremendous boost to our team in Glasgow and a sure sign of the SNP gaining ground again.

Think back about the fuss over Fracking. The Scottish government found a loop hole and stopped it. We were told it was necessary. Necessary for whom? Not the people.

Very welcome news that unemployment in Scotland has fallen to 3.8% and is lower than the rest of the UK.
Scotland’s economy has grown faster than the rest of the UK, but we need to do more to deliver growth and progress - I will be setting out views in a speech tomorrow.

The real question for opponents of Scottish independence is what do other NW European nations have that makes them prosperous & successful but which Scotland lacks? Are crumbling public services & the growing chasm between rich & poor under Westminster really the best Scotland can aspire to?

Unbelievably, even Farage ‘seems’ concerned about the post Brexit tanking of the U.K. economy now. We need to unapologetically make clear to Scotland that our best prospect for economic prosperity is through an independent Scotland’s membership of the EU.
