@InclusionScot
, and other DPO's who are highlighting disabled inequality and poverty.
For too long Disabled people have been left behind. It is time for
@scotgov
to do something about it.
#DisabledPeopleDemandJustice
Disabled people in Scotland have been at the back of the queue for too long, facing worsening inequality and poverty. We are joining disabled peoples' organisations in Scotland to make sure they are a priority for the Scottish Government

The Scottish Government are letting disabled people down. Many of us are feeling angry and betrayed. We need action not words.
Disability groups have described a draft strategy as a betrayal as they withdraw from talks with John Swinney.

“The work we’ve been doing with Scottish Government has stalled and their plan will not deliver what’s needed for equality for disabled people in any way. It’s very weak.”

A powerful and personal speech by
@Jackson_Carlaw
. What unites us is far more important than what divides us.
40 years after attending the Brighton Conference, bombed by the IRA, this was the most personal & difficult speech of my life.

In today's
#challengepovertyweek
debate I outlined the dire stats that describe disabled people in Scotland's experience. If we are really serious about challenging disabled poverty, we will vote to establish a Disability Commissioner to give them a voice.

The loss of a child is the hardest thing that a parent can go through, and organisations like
@heldinourhearts
and
@Simba_team
do amazing work to support them through hard times.
I have lodged the below

Today marks the first day of Baby Loss Awareness Week, for some of you this might be your first Baby Loss Awareness Week, perhaps before now you didn’t even know this week existed. We are sorry you have found yourself in this place and that there is a need for this week.

Under new leader Russell Findlay, the Scottish Conservatives will stand for ambition, opportunity and aspiration.
We’ll focus on what truly matters to people in Scotland and bring some common sense to Scottish politics for a change.

The Scottish government love to say that they have no money, but the reality is that they have plenty of money, they are just so wasteful in their spending.
Money must be prioritised for frontline workers
