Today’s figures show real progress in our schools:

✅ Record literacy and numeracy
✅ Higher attendance
✅ More teachers, with smaller class sizes

Huge credit to pupils and staff. We will keep driving improvement for every young person in Scotland.

If youmust give trains a flag themed livery, it can be done tastefully. The new Great British Railways livery is not it. Why does everything have to be 'Great' British? It smacks of desperation. The livery looks like a GB News studio on wheels. The ScotRail livery is how to do it successfully.

New Scottish Government statistics published today show that over the last year, the number of pupils in Scotland’s schools reaching expected levels of literacy and numeracy is at the highest level on record and the poverty-related attainment gap is at a record low.

I don't understand why the British media allows a far right party funded by the super rich and stuffed full of former Tories to continue to present itself as "anti-elite". It's such a blatant and risible lie yet Farage is never called out on it.

It's amazing how a certain type of angry Unionist British politician in Scotland is so triggered by the ambitions of most people in Scotland.

Will they emigrate to rUK when we're independent?

Offord's astroturfing Vote No Borders campaign was one of the BBC's blatant attempts to influence the outcome of the 2014 indyref. It was given a full 10 minutes on the 6 o clock news & falsely presented as a grassroots campaign while the BBC ignored genuine grassroots initiatives on the Yes side.
