I'm glad to see the two child limit and the rape clause scrapped. It shouldn't have taken this long, and should never have been introduced. What a shame @torcuil didn't have the courage to vote against it last year like the few MPs who did and lost the Labour whip as a result.
The end of the two child benefit cap, reducing child poverty, real Labour values. Hats off, incidentally, to @alisonthewliss , former SNP MP who first spotted the hateful rape clause in George Osborne budget.

Tens of thousands of Scottish jobs. Their future. Scotland’s industry. Scotland’s economy. Scotland’s energy security. Scotland’s energy transition. All at risk. Labour don’t care. You should.

Dearie me, the Reform guy gets easily rattled when you ask him about Russia’s Nathan Gill. Wonder why?

The First Minister is right. With every day that passes Labour Party policy does untold damage to Scotland’s jobs, energy security, economy and ability to deliver a ‘just’ transition. The Chancellor needs to wake up before it’s too late.

Honouring Denis in Aberdeen alongside his children and grandchildren, and supporting his charity was amazing. 🙌🏼❤️

The Chancellor has been urged to levy a windfall tax on commercial banks to fund a £300 cut to energy bills. https://t.co/MFPIXfpqBE

On Tuesday night the Labour Party foolishly tried to argue that the closure at Mossmorran, and loss of 400 jobs, had nothing to do with their policies. Some of us actually do our homework before we speak in the Commons. This is not a Just Transition. It’s Labour’s cliff edge.

Left ankle like a melon this morning. Don’t celebrate with work shoes on kids. Worth it though.
