📺 "I very much hope that when Scotland becomes an independent nation state again and looks to take her rightful place at Europe's top table, it will be remembered that is was the Scots that threw this parliament a lifeline." 👏👏👏 Very clear and very profound contribution as always from Joanna Cherry MP. It's a good job we have her and the other SNP MPs standing up for Scotland at Westminster. | Emma Harper MSP

I had the opportunity this week to question the First Minister on his statement on the Scottish Government’s international development goals. I’m hugely proud that through the work of the Scottish Government we are helping communities – and particularly women and girls – in Malawi and Zambia, who would otherwise miss out on basic health, education and social services. In that context the recent cuts by the UK Government to international aid budgets are absolutely shameful. I know the usual argum

I was on BBC Scotland’s Politics Scotland programme yesterday talking about the Scottish Government’s rollout of Pension Age Winter Heating Payments and the problems our Government and Parliament have had to navigate time after time due to UK Labour’s u-turns on their Winter Fuel Payment – which determines how much money Scotland has to spend. Because the Scottish Budget is massively dependent on Westminster deciding how much of our revenues return to Scotland, these flip-flops have meant huge u

📣🌎 It is only with independence that Scotland can truly play our part as a progressive outward looking, international, nation. ❌ Foreign Office spending has fallen from its peak of £15.1 billion in 2019 to £14.5 billion in 2020, £11.5 billion in 2021 and, most recently, that a third of UK Foreign Office spending was used on housing refugees in the UK. 🗣️ The UK is intent on becoming more insular.

I was delighted with yesterday’s news that work by the Scottish Government has begun on raising the speed limits for HGVs on both single and dual carriageway roads. Going from 40 to 50 mph and from 50 to 60 mph on dual carriageways will make a real difference to congestion and traffic management on our region’s roads, particularly along the strategic trunk A75 & A77 roads.

I took the opportunity in Parliament last week to ask the Minister for Equalities about support for neurodivergent adults and ensuring we have their rights respected, protected and championed throughout government and our public services. We have moved forward over recent decades and the recognition and provision today is much better than previously.

At First Minister's Questions last Thursday I took the opportunity to ask the FM what work is ongoing within the Scottish Government to boost preventative health treatments and investment across our National Health Service. We know from the evidence that spending on preventative care help save money further down the line, meaning those budgets can be reinvested into other parts of the health and care system. The £110 million already targeted this year is hugely welcome, but I think we can always

Today in chamber, I asked the Minister for Agriculture about the Scottish Government’s Future Farming Investment Scheme, aimed at delivering grants to the agriculture sector across Scotland and boosting our farmers and crofters. As you can see, the opposition parties don’t like it when the failings of the UK state are highlighted in public, and tried to shout both me and the Minister down - but there should be no doubt that the certainties of the EU and its long-term funding have been replaced b

We have limited powers over our own finances in Scotland, but with those powers the Scottish Government are doing their utmost to tackle and bring down rates of child poverty – and are succeeding. The groundbreaking Scottish Child Payment is getting cash directly into the households that need it most, while free school meals for Primary 1 – 5, Best Start Grants, free bus travel for under 22s, and so much more are saving hard pressed families money day after day.

I was on BBC Scotland's BBC Debate Night last night, this week coming from Lockerbie. In all the misinformation spouted by Reform and others about immigration and the people who contribute to our public services, they ignore the fact that Scotland's particular demographic situation is ignored - instead we get a UK, one size fits all approach. Like so much else when it comes to our society, Westminster simply isn't working for Scotland. | Emma Harper MSP
