Caption : Hard not to agree with His Holiness Pope Francis. In the days leading up to Christmas, we have Christians in Gaza, who have taken shelter in a Church, killed by snipers in the very region Christ was born. Why is there not universal, global condemnation & calls for a ceasefire? How much more death, how many more children need to be killed before humanity prevails? Shame on those who continue to support such inhumanity and refuse to even utter the words ceasefire.

Caption : My brother-in-law, his wife & four children (the youngest is four months old) have been told they can leave Gaza through Rafah. The problem is, they have no way of getting there, and even if they did, the fighting is ongoing. An impossible situation. We need a ceasefire now.

Caption : In the last few weeks we’ve heard statements from senior Ministers in the Israeli Government calling for the resettlement of the population of Gaza, and for Israeli settlements to be established in Gaza. That is the textbook definition of ethnic cleansing and must be called out. War crimes must be investigated by international courts and anyone found responsible must be held to account. After such death and destruction, it is unconscionable that that the UK Government and Keir Starmer still can’t call for an immediate ceasefire.

Caption : Important statement from @UNRWA head Phillipe Lazzarini that all allegations will be independently investigated. The people of Gaza are dying in the midst of a humanitarian catastrophe, they cannot be collectively punished. Aid must get to those who are already suffering so badly. To clarify, the Scottish Government has not withdrawn our funding to UNRWA. https://www.unrwa.org/newsroom/official-statements/unrwa%E2%80%99s-lifesaving-aid-may-end-due-funding-suspension

Caption : All of us can’t help but be moved by some of the atrocious scenes of conflict that we’ve seen right across the world. People in Scotland, and across the UK, opened their hearts and their homes to Ukrainian refugees fleeing Russia’s illegal invasion. I’m proud of that generosity of spirit. It says a lot about a country that when people are fleeing persecution, that you provide refuge. As politicians, we must lead from the front in saying that this country, for decades, has benefited from migration. Migrants make our country better, not poorer. In every single way. Economically, culturally, academically. It’s something to be celebrated, not castigated. I am somebody who is the product of immigration. My grandfather came to Scotland in the 1960s. He was asked, encouraged, because there were shortages of bus drivers, factory workers. Like most immigration stories, he worked hard and put his children through university, my dad being one of them. He eventually opened up his own business. Even though he has passed on, his wife still has that same shop in Mayfield, in Edinburgh, nearly 50 years later. Every study shows that migrants contribute more than they take. Across Scotland we’re seeing huge workforce vacancies and we have an ageing population. Westminster’s anti-migrant policies aren’t just morally wrong, they’re bad for Scotland’s economy.

Caption : The @scottishtuc rally was an opportunity to re-dedicate ourselves to the fight against racism and fascism. To say loud and clear that Scotland rejects hatred and intolerance in all of its forms. And I’ll be with you every step of the way as we seek to advance equality for all.

Caption : In every Tory-held seat in Scotland @theSNP is in second place. And it’s the Tories in second place in more than half of the SNP-held seats. So our message is clear: 🗳️ Vote SNP for a Scotland free from Tory MPs. Let’s wipe the Tories from Scotland’s electoral map.

Caption : Why do Labour in Wales have the backbone to challenge Tory austerity, but Labour in Scotland don’t? Labour used to back progressive tax in order to invest in public services. 🥀 Now they stand with the Tories, demanding tax cuts for the wealthy at the expense of the NHS.

Caption : 🏴 🏴 Thanks to @markdrakefordwales for the opportunity to catch up ahead of the British-Irish Council in Dublin today. We discussed the importance of Scotland and Wales working together to ensure devolution is fully respected by Westminster, following the Chancellor’s inadequate Autumn Statement that fails to invest in public services and tackle the cost of living crisis.

Caption : 🥀 It’s clear that Scotland will never will be a priority for Labour. ❌ Westminster is punishing people who are caring for our families by disregarding theirs. 👇 Neither Labour nor the Tories will ever stand up for Scotland, our public services, or our workers.

Caption : Tories want migrants to come here to take care of our family members, but only if they’re prepared to leave their own children behind. An act of self-harm impacting virtually every sector. Tories want to burn the house down on their way out, all the while we suffer as a result.

Caption : 🚨 The Tories are demanding that Scottish students once again have back-door tuition fees imposed on them. 🏴 Under @thesnp, there will never be tuition fees. 🎓 We will always protect the right to a free education based on the ability to learn, not the ability to pay.

Caption : Today at #COP28 I announced an additional £2 million @scotgov funding for loss and damage. Scotland’s world-first Climate Justice Fund will continue to focus on communities most affected by climate change, and in order to deliver for those who need it most we must ensure the views and needs of those typically marginalised in such communities – particularly urban voices from the Global South and youth perspectives – are heard. The £1 million funding @scotgov has announced today for the Inclusive Climate Action programme will support cities in the Global South to deliver local inclusive climate action, build resilience for residents, pilot city-led approaches to loss and damage and build cities’ influence in global policy debates. While of immense importance, we cannot just provide funding to deal with the effects of climate-induced loss and damage alone. Devolved governments have a crucial and essential role to play in addressing loss and damage and the global journey to net zero – responsibility for over half of the emissions cuts needed at a global level lie with devolved state and regional governments. The C40 Cities programme aligns with our Climate Justice principles, and will provide cities with support that builds resilience and can be scaled up to meet community need.
