New study from LSE, York & Glasgow universities shows the Scottish Child Payment is transforming lives. Without it, 70,000 more children would face deprivation and food insecurity. We will keep investing in families and lifting children out of poverty. https://t.co/xgbzdnYPSs

New analysis shows the Scottish child payment sharply reduces child deprivation and food insecurity, with no evidence of work disincentives. Discover the findings.

Great to see First Minister @JohnSwinney wearing the new @Greenfield49911 Academy tie at FMQs. The First Minister opened the new school and Drumgeith Community Campus this week. The state-of-the-art facilities were supported with £66 million from @theSNP government.

New CBI report shows business investment in Scotland is at a 20-year high. Despite damaging Westminster decisions like Brexit or Labour's tax on jobs, our economy has many strengths. Imagine how much more we could do with the full powers of independence.

What a fantastic facility, great presentations & music from pupils, big thanks for the tour of the new Greenfield Academy! 👏👏

A surplus of low cost energy in Scotland should mean and must mean, not ever higher bills, but low cost energy for the people of Scotland. The full benefit of Scotland’s energy wealth must be felt by communities, households and businesses across Scotland. Sign the pledge:

📈 Scotland makes more clean power than we use – yet we pay some of Europe’s highest bills. 🇳🇴 Norway invested their North Sea oil funds. 🇬🇧 Westminster wasted ours. 🏴 Scotland now has a second chance with independence. ⚡️ It's time for a fresh start with lower energy bills.
