Wishing all those observing a peaceful and blessed Ramadan. May this holy month bring you joy, reflection, and togetherness.
🏴 Scotland’s water bills will be £113 cheaper on average than in England this year - thanks to the SNP keeping Scotland’s water in public hands. 🥀 Labour is making a mess in England - don’t let them get their hands on Scotland’s water!

Interviewer: "You and Heathrow third runway. You used to be against that & now, are you for it or just going along with the crowd?" Ed Miliband: ".... I'm part of the govt and I abide by collective responsibility"
Fiona Bruce, "Tthe SNP don't control how much money they get.. Are you saying it's just about money?" #BBCQT Lorna Slater, "The money that Scotland has to spend on this like the NHS comes from Westminster" "While Labour have increased that, they haven't made up for 14 years"

📢 The Scottish Government is having to spend £56m more mitigating Westminster policies under Labour than it did under the Tories. 🥀 This is money that could otherwise be addressing poverty directly. Labour have betrayed Scots on their promise of “no austerity”.
