Despite @NorthLanLabour's attempts to rewrite history, the facts remain - the decision to cut school transport was a choice they made - even with repeated alternatives being put forward by SNP councillors.

When individuals lie in an effort to further their own aims and destroy your reputation. When unverified allegations are presented as established fact. Trust in the process; truth will win! "IPSO upholds SNP councillor's accuracy complaint against Sunday Mail"

A reminder of the horrendously difficult rules within which Scot Gov have to budget. Its not as simple of tax and spend - its tax and spend but all relative to the decisions of another Gov and performance of another economy.

🥀 Keir Starmer backs a hard Brexit, backs a hardline anti-immigration policy, and has teamed up with Rishi Sunak to deny Scottish democracy. 👇🏼 Scotland deserves a better future than a pale imitation of the Tories. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Help us build that better future. https://t.co/yHa1LaLtmi

Westminster’s difficulty is Scotland’s opportunity.  The Scottish Parliament should be immediately recalled so that an independence referendum bill can be tabled. There has never been a better time to ask Scots to grasp the opportunity of regaining our independence.

Depressing, sitting at yet another Meeting of Full Council @nlcpeople presided over by a leadership panel of all male Labor/Tory & officers being lectured to about what is best for our communities. Anti-democratic & lacking diversity 🙄

Hard to know what to say to the suggestion I should mirror policies (tax cuts for richest) that have sunk the £, crashed the mortgage market, pushed pensions to the brink, imperilled public services & forced a Bank of England bailout. What planet is the PM living on?
