The peoples of both Israel and Palestine deserve to be able to live side by side in peace and security - and the recognition of Palestine is an essential first step to securing a two state solution.
We also urgently need a ceasefire. The genocide must end. Now.

Every time living standards fall, Nigel Farage blames migration.
And every time, Keir Starmer nods along.
People are struggling with the cost of living and blaming migration won’t fix that.
Scotland deserves better - a fairer, wealthier, welcoming future with independence.

I’m proud that the Scottish Parliament has voted to recognise the State of Palestine. 🇵🇸 🏴
The UK Government must now follow suit with no caveats, no ifs & no buts.
Recognise Palestine now!

Clip from yesterday's Priorities for Scotland debate. In Paisley we don’t dress it up. Hungry weans? Feed them. Cold hoose? Heat it. Westminster points and blames. Scotland acts. That’s the difference.

Let’s be clear - a genocide is unfolding in Gaza as a result of Israel’s actions.
We all have a moral and legal responsibility to act, and Scotland will play its part.
Today I have set out a range of diplomatic, economic and humanitarian measures.

Please support this petition, to introduce a right to have a referendum for Scotland and Wales, in the same way it is a right for citizens of Northern Ireland. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...
Petition: Introduce statutory provision for independence referendums in Scotland & Wales.
It has been stated that the UK is a voluntary union. If this is democratically the case I think there should be a legal mechanism for any part of the union to decide whether or not to leave that union...

Anas Sarwar told us “Read my lips: no austerity under Labour.”
Now, Rachel Reeves is planning to slash billions from welfare and public service budgets.
Labour’s promises mean nothing. Scotland shouldn’t have to suffer for Westminster’s choices.

More than 2.7m free bus journeys have been made in East Dunbartonshire since the SNP Scottish Government
introduced free bus travel for under 22s, three years ago.
Scotland is the only part of the UK to offer this, benefiting young people travelling to their place of work or study.

Shona has made such a formidable contribution to the SNP, to Parliament and to the Scottish Government.
She has been a great friend, colleague and ally to me and I am sorry she will stand down at the election.
I send my warmest wishes to her for all that lies ahead.

More than 200 million free bus journeys have been made by under-22s across Scotland.
This means young people can travel to their place of work, learning or to hang out with family and friends while saving them and their family significant amounts of money.
