So pleased to host young people in Bute House today for an important discussion on eradicating child poverty.
Thank you for setting out your views so powerfully. We’re working to support families and reduce the cost of the school day - and we’ve made real progress, but there’s still more to do.

Unionists support in Scotland tends to cluster around the unionist party that’s perceived to be doing best at the time. The same dynamic that gave Labour 37 Scottish MPs is going to see these people shoved straight into the bin.

Reeves’ emergency news conference before her budget: a masterclass in the Bias of Omission & manipulation of the truth. Her aim was to mislead the public & markets that UK finances were in jeopardy.
But this was misleading. The reality from the OBR, was that there was *a surplus* NOT a black-hole.
