I want to live in a nation where every child can thrive. The UK government’s two-child cap is a cruel policy that holds us back and drags children into poverty. Where Westminster fails to act, Scotland leads - so we are ending the two-child cap from 2nd March 2026.

The UK status quo is broken, but a better future is possible. A fairer, wealthier, independent Scotland in the EU, harnessing our full potential. That future is within reach, but only if we work for it and vote for it. That was my message Scotland 2050 conference this afternoon.

😳 After years of fiscal chaos, The UK's cost of borrowing is now the worst among the G7 nations, and is rapidly approaching its limit. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 The sooner Scotland escape this Westminster madness the better, we need independence now.

😲 Labour's Wes Streeting has bagged another £58,000 from sources connected to the private health industry. 💰 Bringing his total to a staggering £372,000. 🤔 How can Labour protect the NHS when private firms have MPs in their pockets?

👨‍🎓 37,805 Scottish students were accepted to Scottish Universities last year - the highest number on record! 📈 There was an 11% increase in acceptances from Scotland’s most deprived areas. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Unlike Labour, the SNP will always fight to keep tuition fees free in Scotland.

🥔 New research shows Scotland’s food and drink exports were worth over £7 billion last year alone, equivalent to £1,311 per person in Scotland. 🤔 Imagine the potential if Scotland were an independent nation back in the European Union.

🚨 Actions have consequences… 👀 After a year of broken promises, cronyism and a lack transparency, trust in the Prime minister has been left in tatters.

👀 New figures show that Labour MSPs have the worst attendance in Holyrood. Missing more votes than any other party. @TheSNP have the highest turnout, showing up day in, day out to stand up for their constituents. If you're elected, the bare minimum should be turning up.
