We have exceeded our pledge to deliver 64,000 NHS surgeries and procedures by the end of March 2025. By the end of January, with two months to go, we’ve already delivered over 75,500. And with the record NHS funding in our Budget, @thesnp.bsky.social will keep reducing waiting times.
Seems @thesnp.bsky.social has just received an official endorsement for the 2026 elections! From Scottish Labour!
