Scottish Nationalism is divisive. It has caused my English husband to be told to “go home”. It has created “others”. It has stirred up anglophobia and xenophobia by relying solely on stirring up the ideology of the “auld enemy”. This article is utterly false.

Scottish independence is a progressive and inclusive brand of internationalism. It is inclusive civic nationalism rather than repugnant insular ethnic nationalism. My @BylineTimes article #indyref2

The SNP have allocated a whopping £14.8 million to a constitutional budget which remit includes making the case for independence while cutting a despicable £268m from social and affordable homes. Their priorities laid bare for all to see. #ScotBudget

Today @KateForbesMSP said Covid has 'underlined the value of a safe, secure and affordable home'. But she's chosen to cut investment in social and affordable homes by £268 million. Quality housing is a matter of life and death - and this is a huge backwards step. #ScottishBudget

The Scot Gov was warned about an influx of dangerous dogs from England but they refused to listen. These terrible attacks are the direct result of an obsessive need to be different to Westminster which is always top priority for the SNP.

2/2 This language has been allowed to grow unchecked. It has caused me greater sadness as my husband is English. I will continue to fight for a Scotland free of this behaviour. For a properly UNITED kingdom. We must end this division now. Vote @ScotTories on 12th December.

Both Corbyn and Sturgeon have always been clear they want to scrap our nuclear deterrent & the 10K jobs that go with it. This would devastate residents of West Dunbartonshire & our local economy. Only a vote for the @ScotTories on 12th December can secure our safety and jobs.

This is astounding. These figures have been asked for repeatedly by MSPs and journalists and have been hugely underplayed. It is now clear that discharging into care homes has been a huge issue. Only a few days ago Jeane Freeman was scandalously blaming care home staff.

BREAKING: Scot Gov admits 921 hospital patients were sent to care homes in March alone, pre mandatory testing. Yet on April 15, Health Sec Jeane Freeman said most of 900 delayed discharge patients discharged since pandemic start went to own homes, not care homes. Huge discrepancy

A 73% infection rate. A Health Secretary that is unaware of their own official advice. Councils withheld the £155m Westminster has provided for them to deal with this, despite them running a large number of care homes. This is a shocking.

Excellent questioning from @SueJWebber on the care home scandal. The Scottish Government response was poor and does not meet the urgency that is expected of this important issue. Families and friends of care home residents deserve to know the truth.
