This week John Swinney opened the first GP walk-in centre & froze rail fares. That’s what being on Scotland’s side looks like.
Anas Sarwar woke up on Monday thinking he was Brutus, but went to bed looking like Mr Bean. That’s what working in your own self-interest looks like.

✅ Rail fares: frozen
✅ Peak fares: scrapped
✅ More money in your pocket
The SNP is working hard to reduce the cost of living, and this is the latest example.

I'm delighted that in Scotland, unlike in the rest of the UK, we have avoided doctors' strikes.
We're also now seeing consistent progress in our NHS: more operations, more GPs and falling long waits.
More to do, but that's real progress under the SNP.

Now that Jim Ratcliffe has 'apologised' for his racist, anti-immigrant comments will those who rushed to support & defend him also apologise? A whole host of right-wing attention seekers such as Liz Truss & Nigel Farage & more need to be called out on Ratcliffe's remarks.
