When is the Scottish media going to start asking the other parties if they plan to abolish SNP policy on free tuition fees & saddle our young people with this amount of debt if they win the Holyrood election?
“The combined tuition fees of the entire Question Time panel would not cover my cost for 1 year of uni. Is that fair?”
Oli Dugmore
It’s absolutely NOT fair. This outrageous scandal must end

A new report by the Health, Social Care & Sport Committee considers ADHD and autism pathways and support.
The Committee calls for urgent Scottish Government action to deliver a national plan that ensures autistic people and people with ADHD can access support across every health board in Scotland.
