As an Elgin Councillor, I am so excited that the SNP Scottish Government is extending the £2 bus fare cap to the North East. That means money back in the pockets of my constituents, particularly those commuting eastward from Elgin. @theSNP 🚌

Absolutely delighted with this commitment from @JohnSwinney - the SNP will bring Scotland’s bus network into public control. Work towards bus franchising is already underway in Glasgow and this announcement provides certainty of Scottish Government support to deliver.

The SNP will bring Scotland's bus network back into public control by the end of this Parliament, using franchising and regulation to improve services for passengers. #SNP26

“The answer is the answer.” Apparently. 🤷‍♀️ 🤨 If the UK can change its mind on Brexit 10 years on, why can’t the people of Scotland choose their own future 12 years on?

Hospitality businesses like @KingennieResort are a key part of our economy. Energy costs are soaring under Labour and their hike to National Insurance has hammered business. I'm backing @scothospgroup calls for the UK budget to cut VAT for hospitality to 10%. #VATsTheProblem

Tomorrow we’ll debate Scotland’s relationship with the EU. That is so timely given the summit where most issues involve devolved competence, but also the PM’s comments on Europe. Time to rejoin! Anyway where better to discuss our relationship with Europe! 🍊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺
