Scotland’s fishing industry delivers over 60% of the UK’s catch - but Labour thinks we should settle for just 7.78% of funding. 🐟🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

There’s a vote in Parliament today.

Will Labour stand up for Scotland’s fisheries, or just stand up for Keir Starmer?

We’re calling for the UK Government to implement a Social Tariff which could reduce energy bills by up to £700 for those who need it most. 💚⚡️
graphic reads: “In an energy-rich nation like Scotland, no one should be struggling to pay their energy bills. The UK Government promised to cut people’s bills by £300 – instead bills have risen by almost £200. We must see action from the UK Government now.” Features a picture of Scotland’s housing secretary Mairi McAllan.

I’m stepping up to be your @snp.org candidate for the Whitburn and Blackburn by-election.

So vote Callum #1 on Dec/11 for a local, fresh and committed voice!

Westminster’s called the shots for too long... but Scotland’s been watching.

They said staying in the UK kept us in the EU.
They said energy would be cheaper.
They said we were a union of equals.

Enough talk. It’s time to banish Westminster.
A cinematic-style image inspired by The Traitors TV show. Two hooded figures in green cloaks stand in front of 10 Downing Street, with flames rising at the bottom of the frame. Bold orange text on the left reads “The time for talk is over.” On the right, a person holds an envelope labelled “Westminster,” with the text “It’s time to banish Westminster” above it. The overall tone is dramatic, symbolising Scotland taking action and ending Westminster’s control.

🧵 Westminster politicians have said some wild stuff over the years about Scotland…

Here are just a few of their real quotes – and a reminder of why Scotland needs the power to choose its own future.
