The ending of the Bute House agreement is a huge opportunity for the SNP to reset our agenda in government. Out with identity politics & virtue signalling. In with policies to tackle the bread & butter issues that our constituents bring up on the doorsteps.

Congratulations to @JohnSwinney . I agree that the polarisation of politics does not serve our country well & that we must have open & respectful dialogue both within @theSNP & with others. I hope this truly marks the end of #NoDebate in Scotland.

On #BBCLauraK Rwandan Govt Spokesperson unable to say how many asylum seekers they can take from UK. When I visited with @HumanRightsCtte in February I was told by Govt officials they expected to receive 2,000 this year & 10,000 over the next 5 years.

Am listening with rapt attention to audiobook of Sister In Law by @HWistrich . I sort of knew the cases but in her factual, modest style she is blowing me away. She ran some of the most important civ. liberties cases in last 30 yrs. Amazing Why is she not in the House of Lords?

Dr Hilary Cass will be giving evidence on her report to Holyrood's health committee next Tuesday. Be interesting to hear what questions are put, particularly from the Scottish Green MSP Gillian Mackay given her party co-leader Patrick Harvie refused to accept the report

Good to see an apology from the school here but the social transitioning policies being pushed in Scottish schools by LGBT Youth Scotland & others need to go in the light of the recommendations of the #CassReport .

School reported parents of ‘trans’ child to social services

George Watson’s College in Edinburgh alerted social workers in 2020 after the parents asked the school to adopt a ‘watchful waiting’ approach to their child

I have listened very carefully to the vision @JohnSwinney set out this morning for Scotland. I welcomed, and embrace, his commitment to ensure internal respect for robust and divergent debate in the party, which is the lifeblood of any democratic institution like the SNP. /1

We're glad to say that we have now received the outcome of our complaint regarding this incident, and both elements have been upheld. As the letter notes, the policy of the Scottish Parliament has been changed and we will in future be allowed to wear our badges.
