Great to be up in Aberdeen today supporting @thomsonrichardg - our @theSNP candidate for Thursday’s Aberdeen South by-election. Door knocking with @ClareAdamsonSNP and catching top views of the beautiful Granite City from the flats! #VoteSNP
A brilliant result from @ScotlandNT enjoyed across the country 🏴. Early reports from @PoliceScotland suggest the very late and busy hospitality trade & fan zones went well. Scotland, not only a national team to be proud of, but as ever national fans to be proud of too.
Tonight, Scotland returns to the World Cup for the first time in 28 years.
To harness that excitement and inspire the next generation of talent, we are announcing a £500,000 World Cup Fund to support youth football, and supporting the work of @streetsoccerSCO.
The First Minister is in Boston today, quite right. Backing Scotland in the World Cup and backing Scottish jobs back home by engaging with our international partners. What a brilliant opportunity
“Our long-awaited return to the World Cup is an opportunity to showcase what Scotland has to offer.”
First Minister @JohnSwinney is in Boston to meet business leaders and investors, before marking Scotland’s return to the World Cup.

Good morning from Boston.
Nice to bump into Ronnie and Linda Coull from Aberdeen, ahead of a busy day of trade, investment, diplomatic, academic and sporting engagements.
