🚨 Nicola Sturgeon auctioned her sparkly stilettos worth £290 to raise money for the SNP. 🤔 Her crooked husband Peter Murrell bought them back - for £4,000! 🤷🏻 Do these SNP chancers think we all came up the Clyde on a bicycle? EXCLUSIVE REPORT👇 dailymail.com/news/article-1…

I think you will find you are wrong. If a single sex service has been established then single sex is defined by biological sex and there is no proprtionality test.

Welcomed today’s statement on maternity services—and pleased my campaigning was recognised. But do we really need another review? Warm words aren’t enough. Women in Wigtownshire are still travelling unacceptable distances—unsafe, inequitable and unjust. We’ve had a clear, independent review before. It was ignored. Families are paying the price. Will this be action—or another talking shop? We need restored local services, midwife-led births in Stranraer, better access, and real choice. I’ll keep holding Govt & the Health Board to account. Galloway deserves safe, local maternity care.

❓Did Peter Murrell steal taxpayers' cash? ❓Did he rob SNP members like Margaret Killah? ❓Why did he get legal aid? ❓What were the terms of his secret plea deal? ❓Why was Nicola Sturgeon not prosecuted? No wonder John Swinney's scared of an inquiry👇 #FMQs

Scottish Tory leader @RussellFindlay1 says voters in Aberdeen South, where there will be a by-election next week, are angry at the "SNP's duplicity over oil and gas". He calls on the FM to support Conservative candidate @DLumsden_MSP's call to "get Britain drilling again".

Just one week left until the Aberdeen South by-election and I’m working hard to beat the SNP. But I need your help. Vote Scottish Conservative to beat the nationalists and send Labour a clear message.

The SNP and Greens had a choice: support scrutiny or shut it down. They chose to shut it down. A former SNP chief executive admitted embezzling more than £400,000, yet John Swinney’s party voted against a parliamentary inquiry into how it happened, how it went undetected for so long and who knew what. The criminal case is over. The accountability questions remain. The public are not fools. They can see exactly what is happening when politicians vote against transparency and refuse to answer straightforward questions.

Oops. @ProfJMitchell responds (see quoted tweet) to Ross Greer’s suggestion in parliament that the Scottish Green amendment is closest to his proposals.
Let me be very clear. I do NOT support the Green amendment. It is an attempt to evade the very serious issues that require focus on SNP financial mismanagement.

Multi-platinum-selling artist and Brain Tumour Research Patron, @AlfieBoe OBE, saw his ‘Facing Myself’ UK tour come to a close on Sunday 31st May, at the New Theatre in Cardiff. As part of the 35-date tour, Alfie invited Brain Tumour Research to hold collections at venues across the country, helping to fund our Centres of Excellence dedicated to finding a cure for all types of brain tumour. Alfie has a personal connection to the cause. When he was just 23, he watched his father, Alfred, rapidly deteriorate and die from a brain tumour. A huge thank you to Alfie and the incredible volunteers who represented Brain Tumour Research and gave their time to collect donations before, during and after the shows. Together, they raised more than £10,000 throughout the tour. 💛 #BrainTumourAwareness #TogetherWeWillFindACure

The SNP (backed by the Greens) have opposed an inquiry into the Murrell-Sturgeon scandal. This matters because the conviction of Peter Murrell is not simply a criminal case, nor is it merely an SNP problem. It is the most serious political scandal of the devolution era. That is why there must be a parliamentary inquiry. The public is entitled to ask questions: How did this happen? How did it continue so long? Why was it not detected? What safeguards were missing? What lessons must now be learned?

The SNP have been caught out👇 They’re telling voters in Aberdeen they support oil and gas – but their own minister refuses to back more drilling. If you want a local MP who backs our oil and gas industry vote Scottish Conservative on 18th June and let’s Get Britain Drilling.

Nicola Sturgeon and John Swinney want you to believe they saw nothing suspicious about SNP finances. Nobody is buying it. The public deserve answers about the SNP embezzlement scandal. There must be an urgent inquiry.
