Remarkable statistics out today about the economic impact of forestry - new statistics reveal it is worth £1.1 billion and employs more than 34,000 people. I visited Fraser West at Dalcross to discuss the opportunities for the industry.

We’re providing over £7 million to improve electric vehicle infrastructure.
Transport Minister
@FionaHyslop
announced the funding at SSE’s charging hub in Dundee.
It will help councils work with the private sector to secure more EV chargers in rural areas and islands.

The two-child benefit cap is abhorrent. It should be roundly condemned on principle and not used as a tool for internal party management or trying to appear tough on enforcing fiscal rules. Labour now have the power to end it. Time for them to do the right thing.
🔥 Tom Arthur to Tory Michelle Ballantyne: "To suggest that poverty should be a barrier to a family, that people who are poor are not entitled to any more than two children, what an absolutely disgraceful position"

💶 Scotland has attracted record foreign investment for the 5th year in a row according to EY - international investors can go anywhere but a record number choose Scotland. We outpaced both the UK and Europe (Europe recorded a 4% year-on-year decline). /1

Another very strong year for FDI with Scotland outperforming every other part of the UK outwith London. This is a significant vote of confidence in Scotland and demonstrates the underlying strengths of the Scottish economy.

A convincing and objective political-economic analysis of the causes and potential consequences of the UK General Election result. Worth reading and reflecting on whatever your political or constitutional views.
