Scottish government figures show that full fiscal autonomy would mean needing to find immediate savings of about £26.5bn. Given the SNP has had 19 years in power to prepare, I'm sure John Swinney...

Which law is to blame is irrelevant - whatever the loophole is, it must be closed, because it's forcing councils across Scotland to suspend the allocation of permanent accommodation to existing res...

Whether we should blame the 2022 law is not the issue - I didn't mention it in my question last week! But the fact remains that 1000s of asylum seekers, once granted leave to remain, are coming s...

Aberdeen is being gaslit by the Tories, who introduced the Energy Profits Levy and Net Zero, and now expect you to forget about it just to beat the SNP. Jo Hart - nurse, midwife, and entrepreneur ...

@MrGrumble Yes, I paid for ALL my trip costs. No, I won't claim them as an expense. Yes, I donated my own dosh at the fundraiser.

You'll have no more nonsense with Bill Reid as MP for Arbroath and Broughty Ferry - a former Regimental Sergeant Major and small business owner!

Again throwing public money around like it’s his own – the income tax bill of 62 nurses all in one go. It's a great charity and I was also there to support it. But if he wants a photo opportunity...

Becoming a shadow energy minister in 2024 opened my eyes to the sheer disaster of Net Zero. But when I spoke out against it, the Tories who created it closed ranks. It's one of the main reasons I...

Bill Reid was raised a farmer, retrained as a surveyor in the Army, then retrained again in finance, setting up his own business. With a wealth of real experience, he's by far and away the best ca...

Immigration may be reserved to Westminster, but social housing is devolved. I asked John Swinney directly if he would stop the loopholes resulting in new arrivals being put ahead of locals. This...

They throw around your money like it’s their own. It’s a worthwhile cause, but John Swinney should withdraw this donation from the government, and instead donate a sum out of his OWN pocket. If h...

How strange! I’m always pleased to meet young Scots who show ambition. Hope she’s doing well for herself since leaving politics and our sparring at the Scottish Affairs Committee.

Isn't it time for the First Minister to now reveal his cunning plan for another referendum, or has Peter Murrell stolen that as well?
