🟡 First big @theSNP manifesto commitment for #SP21 from @JohnSwinney - free breakfasts and lunches, all year round, for every child in primary 1-7. Big part of our commitment to making Scotland the best place to grow up & eradicating child poverty and the stigma attached to it

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg fought to the end, through her cancer, with unwavering faith in our democracy and its ideals. That’s how we remember her. But she also left instructions for how she wanted her legacy to be honored. My statement: obama.medium.com/my-statemen…

This is an incredibly troubling development. It is imperative that current democratic institutions are maintained in the absence of more democratic alternatives. How we act at times of crisis reveals our underlying values. Democracy is a value we can't we afford to obfuscate.

The govt has decided to shut down the online Parliament. In future, only those present in the Chamber will be allowed to take part. The Speaker's letter on this has three main takeaways, that should matter to anyone who cares about our democracy. [THREAD] parliament.uk/business/news/…

Our message to Scotland is still #StayAtHome. You should only leave the house for essential reasons like:
✔ Getting food or medicines
✔ Any medical need
✔ Exercise, as often as you like, but only with those in your household
By following these rules you’re saving lives.
