SNP MSP Maryhill & Springburn from 2016. Stay in Maryhill with Janet & our kids. For an Independent Scotland. Promoted by Bob Doris, 10-24 Gairbraid Ave G208YE
📢 While Labour imposes more austerity, the SNP is passing a new law requiring social security payments to increase each year with inflation.
🏴 The SNP will always do right by households, making sure they get the support they need.
“Sir” Keir Starmer has taken £107,000 of freebies since 2019 which is more than ALL Labour leaders since 1997 combined.
Why can he not pay for it himself?
Man of the people? Don’t think so!
During the election campaign Anas Sarwar proclaimed: “Read my lips - no austerity under Labour”.
Mr Sarwar lied & now many of the poorest pensioners are going to suffer because of the Labour’s austerity.
For pensioners Labour austerity is worse than Tory austerity.
📸 Today, SNP Leader and First Minister of Scotland
@JohnSwinney
joined SNP activists in Glasgow for a national SNP Day of Action.
📢 Scotland has for too long been held back by Westminster.
🏴 A better, more optimistic and hopeful future is possible with independence.
Labour have lost 37,000 members during 2023 and in total have lost nearly 200,000 members across the UK since 2017.
I suspect they have lost a few more this year after their decision to freeze pensioners!
“Let us talk ourselves up – and never allow ourselves to be talked down.
Let us pass on that sense of hope to our fellow Scots through the hands of solidarity and friendship.
Let us inspire them with a vision of what is possible.”

in the blink of an eye. Came across this leaflet we put out
@Maryhill_SNP
in its aftermath. UK cuts & Labour's resistance to empowering Scotland. Sounds familiar. I was very proud local communities, on both sides of debate, engaged so positively in 2014🏴

Very poor performance from PM Starmer at

there. He’s asked 3 times why won’t UKGov publish its impact assessment for the cuts to the
#WinterFuelAllowance
? Refuses to answer. Is asked will it lead to 3850 additional elderly deaths as per Labour’s previous analysis? No answer
To all the Labour MPs in Scotland who put party before pensioners yesterday and voted to scrap the Winter Fuel Payment last night.
I've read the letter you are sending to your constituents - let me help you with a few things you missed... (1/4)
Yesterday,
@BobDorisSNP
stressed the importance of 2045 net zero targets being both ambitious and realistic.
He asked Dr Emily Nurse of
@theCCCuk
which information she thought Parliament needs to effectively scrutinise whether any carbon budget fulfils those objectives 👇
It is beyond disappointing that Glasgow Labour MP's have toed the Labour line and voted to remove the winter fuel payment from millions of pensioners as fuel bills look set to soar.
@theSNP
MPs would never have voted to withdraw £160m of support from Scotland's pensioners.
✂️ Every one of Glasgow’s Labour MPs voted to take away the winter fuel payment from millions of pensioners at the same time they increased energy bills for everyone else.
Is that their idea of change?
First opportunity of the season to catch
@Maryhill_FC
at Lochburn. Finished 3-3 versus Cambuslang. If ever 'action packed' is a well deserved description of a game- this was it! Well done the The Hill coming back from 3-1 down.
Thank you to the

for their coverage of this issue and for the Gow family for sharing their story. Looking forward to making progress on improving safety, supporting responsible ownership and enhancing enforcement
@GoforGow
Thank you to everyone who helped to relocate the remaining swans for their own protection including
@SpringburnPF
&
@GlasgowCC
It was totally sickening what happened.
Stone-throwing children targeting swans in Springburn Park have forced our Countryside Rangers to move 3 birds to safety.
Two adult swans and a cygnet were relocated. There were originally 5 cygnets but only 1 remains. The rest are dead or missing. 👉
🧸 No child should have their potential curtailed by the material wealth of their family in a modern, prosperous society like Scotland.
📢 Eradicating child poverty is the greatest investment in our country’s future that we can possibly make.
Thatcher introduced the ‘right to buy’.
Labour support it.
The SNP scrapped it.
And why?
Because it decimated housing stocks, made it almost impossible to fix even the most basic of problems in mixed ownership blocks and short-changed the taxpayer.
It was a privilege tonight to lead a debate on the misuse of off-road vehicles. Action needed. Thank you to the family of David Gow for sharing their story & colleagues for supporting the debate
