An immediate ceasefire is the most effective way to protect civilians in Israel and Palestine. I agree with @AgnesCallamard @amnesty “it could prevent the mounting civilian death toll in Gaza and could also provide an opportunity to secure the safe release of hostages.”

If it involves more of the "inwards investment" that has characterised ScotGov policy up till now, then we can expect more of the profit extraction that has created the problems identified in the article.

Looking forward to chairing roundtable meeting at @ScotParl with the Education Secretary this week, with young people, trade unions and other frontline voices. The purpose is to progress the rollout of universal free school meals, helping to end child poverty and reduce stigma.

Great analysis on @SadiqKhan , leadership and the real politics of devolution - “Creating leaders with their own mandates and voices – politicians whose innovations can be copied.” And on free school meals the “kind of progressive universalism the Labour party should follow.” 🙌
