This week @Sunday_Post revealed how the Pink Ladies had been accused of exploiting violence against women and girls to push anti-migrant rhetoric. The group has since shared this post celebrating a dangerous fire and calling for Britain to become “white and great again” 🧵

Regrettably, the group declined to answer the questions we put to them about the protest (which you can read in full at the link below) They have also been telling their supporters that they did not decline. As you can see, that is not true. sundaypost.com/fp/pink-ladie…

Critics say pink branding and women-led presentation risks giving a more respectable face to extreme politics. Celebrating flat fires and promoting white supremacists is far from the image the group wants to present. I’m happy to receive answers to our questions at any time 👍

We must all come together to end violence against women and girls. We need services that are more proactive in supporting victims, a justice system that protects them, and a culture that challenges harmful attitudes. As First Minister, I will give this my personal leadership.

As he sets off on a two-week “listening tour” around the country, Burnham is fast turning political communication into something that feels less like a press conference and more like a never-ending TikTok feed. eu1.hubs.ly/H0xG2_X0

Great coverage of our call for John Swinney to work with Andy Burnham to end Scotland's homelessness crisis. The Prime Minister's pledge to end rough sleeping must be a wake-up call for Scotland to finally deliver on ending all forms of homelessness.
