In Old Craighall voters who said they usually voted SNP in the past were keen to hear from @ScottishLabour and @ChrisMurray2010 The events of the past few days and the failures of the last 17 years demonstrate to them why we need change
Welcome, Dr Dan Poulter, Labour’s new MP for Central Suffolk and North Ipswich.
The SNP cannot impose another unelected First Minister on Scotland. We need an election now.
Poulter will sit with Labour then stand down at the next election - it's only the second defection under Sunak, after Lee Anderson went to Reform, and only the second defection to Labour since the last General Election, after Christian Wakeford in 2022 - likely to spook already…

Every time @HumzaYousaf opens his mouth the hole he’s digging gets deeper
Scotland deserves an election now. We’ve endured useless government and failed leadership for too long. The circus of @theSNP incompetence needs to end. heraldscotland.com/politics/viewp…
Humza Yousaf is out of time - but this entire SNP government needs to go. It's time for change. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…
“No longer available “ for WM Scottish Affairs committee… but fast forward a few days and she’s glamming it at a glitzy London awards night. No longer FM but still showing maximum contempt to WM and their interest in Scotland
Labour might be wise to accelerate its candidate selection for Holyrood election.
First Minister Humza Yousaf denies it’s over for him. He says he’ll fight on, and he’ll try to win back the Greens - after ditching them from his government just yesterday which led to him now facing a Confidence Vote. Our full interview coming up on @itvnews and @ITVX
PACE President pays tribute to Baroness Massey pace.coe.int/en/news/9443/p… A lovely tribute for a great and kind woman & super colleague
Humza Yousaf is on his way out. The next First Minister should be chosen by the people of Scotland, not SNP members. Time for an election.

If a debacle similar to the BHA was breaking in Westminster @theSNP would be shouting for an election. So @HumzaYousaf why don't we have an early Holyrood election & let the people decide? After all if the polls are as favourable as you've been making out what've you got to lose?
While the Tories are arguing for a change in SNP Leader, @ScottishLabour is arguing for a change in Government!

There is a difference between a VONC in the First Minister and a VONC in the Government.

Hi @JohnnyDundee, I'm sorry to be the one to break this to you, but the failure of the Scottish DRS to launch was entirely due to Lorna Slater's incompetence. It had—and I can't stress this enough—nothing to do with Westminster.

@AshReganALBA returning to a competent government requires SNP to be voted out. @theSNP have a dismal track record of failure and incompetence and gross financial mis-management. The Majority don’t want independence. There is NO economic case at any level. This is simply not a priority.

So much for it being Ash Regan's decision
An emergency meeting of Alba’s National Executive Committee will be convened over the weekend to discuss whether they will back Humza Yousaf in the motion of no confidence.
Today I fulfilled a long term ambition and I piped at Edinburgh Castle To say I’m buzzing is an understatement! My eternal thanks to my teacher, mentor and pipey Jim McCabe for years of patience and to Ian McCabe for his invaluable support tonight 🎶 🎵
Lots of commentary about Yousaf being a nice guy. Why would a nice guy ever say of a colleague that her defecting to another party was 'no great loss'?
How to avoid repeated embarrassments: Could someone he trusts please advise that he doesn’t have to speak every time a mic is shoved under his nose. His job is not to give a running commentary. His job is — or should be — to run Scotland. Ok. Maybe best all round if he sticks to…
“I didn’t mean, and didn’t intend, to make them as angry as they clearly are.” Oops.
Now whatever you do folks DON'T share this one. Too many sensitive bed wetters out there 😄😄
To be dealt with “promptly” after an inquiry was announced on 23rd November. Holyrood (not just the Nats) at its worst.
#OTD 1992. Betty Boothroyd is elected as speaker of the House of Commons - the first woman in its 700 year history. She would later claim: “I came out of the womb into the Labour movement...It’s like miners’ coal dust underneath your fingernails. Difficult to scrub out”

Great to be out campaigning in Musselburgh and Inveresk today. Great to hear so many people will be backing Labour in the next election. I shall leave you to guess what issue came up most on the doorstep today…
Welcome, Dr Dan Poulter, Labour’s new MP for Central Suffolk and North Ipswich.
The SNP cannot impose another unelected First Minister on Scotland. We need an election now.
Nicola Sturgeon parties at red carpet event as SNP faces political chaos dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-… What’s this? #MrsPeterMurrell ”unavailable” to give evidence to a HOC committee regarding the job we pay her for , but here she is days later partying in London.Wonder who paid ?
Poulter will sit with Labour then stand down at the next election - it's only the second defection under Sunak, after Lee Anderson went to Reform, and only the second defection to Labour since the last General Election, after Christian Wakeford in 2022 - likely to spook already…
“I find it increasingly difficult to look my NHS colleagues in the eye” Former Conservative minister and MP Dr Dan Poulter has quit his party to join Labour. He tells #BBCLauraK he believes that Keir Starmer can be trusted to run public services bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
Good to see @CllrDownie supporting our campaign to grow the co-op economy at @DundeeLabStu conference this morning party.coop/growth-scotland
Scotland deserves an election now. We’ve endured useless government and failed leadership for too long. The circus of @theSNP incompetence needs to end. heraldscotland.com/politics/viewp…
Humza Yousaf is out of time - but this entire SNP government needs to go. It's time for change. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…
At times like this we need to rally behind our beleaguered First Minister. The man is trying his best ffs. Humza must stay. #YoonsforYousaf
"Ash Regan is to equalities, what Liz Truss is to economics"
Scottish Green MSP Gillian Mackay is angry and tearful as she delivers some devastating criticisms of Humza Yousaf. (Speaking with @BBCJohnBeattie a few minutes ago on @BBCRadioScot.)
“No longer available “ for WM Scottish Affairs committee… but fast forward a few days and she’s glamming it at a glitzy London awards night. No longer FM but still showing maximum contempt to WM and their interest in Scotland
