Backing Grangemouth with Real Investment, Not Empty Promises The UK’s betrayal of workers at Grangemouth is unforgivable. But we said we’d do everything we could to back the community — and SNP is delivering. We’re allocating £8.5 million to support up to 460 new jobs in biotech and renewables at Gr

Scotland is energy rich, yet has some of the highest energy bills in Europe. It’s time for a fresh start with lower energy bills.

Westminster’s broken promises and power grabs show why Scotland needs a fresh start with independence. #independence #devolution #YouYesYet

Labour has admitted any SNP majority must be taken seriously—so let’s deliver one in May. Ignore the MSM’s Reform fetish: real-world results, like Plaid Cymru’s win for Lindsay Whittle in Wales, show Reform can be beaten. Meanwhile, the SNP is leading the fight against Labour’s “Brit Card” digital I

Happy Diwali  To everyone who is celebrating, I wish you and your families a very Happy Diwali. May the Festival of Lights bring warmth to your homes, joy to your hearts, and hope for the year ahead. Thank you for all you do to brighten our communities with your generosity, culture, and friendship.

Labour now say there’ll be no referendum—even if the SNP wins a majority—so it’s clear Scotland must take our future into our own hands. With Farage’s rise and the UK’s democratic deficit worsening, our task is to deliver an indisputable SNP majority next year on the new boundaries finalised on 16 O

Winter Campaigning with a Spring in Our Step After a short family break and Party conference, Martyn Day is back leading the local team—energised by a clear, independence-majority strategy that’s put a spring in supporters’ steps.

Say no to Digital ID Starmer’s so-called ‘Brit-Card’ is an unacceptable infringement on our freedoms and Scottish identity. Scotland deserves the power to choose its own future – not have gimmicks imposed from Westminster. https://mldawmms0z1t.i.optimole.com/w:auto/h:auto/q:mauto/process:5141/id:e8

I welcome the news and thank Police Scotland for their action in arresting and charging a 45-year-old man in connection with an offensive banner displayed during protest activity in the Kemper Avenue area of Falkirk on August 16, 2025. Police Scotland struck a careful balance in their handling of

Supporting Families with Hospitalised Children It is great news that the Young Patients Family Fund has supported families across Forth Valley and Lothian over the last year. This funding helps parents visit their children in hospital – supporting families in their time of need.

Why GERS Shows the Need for Independence GERS is not a set of national accounts for an independent Scotland. It is an estimate of how much revenue is raised in Scotland and how much is spent on Scotland’s behalf – including billions on immoral nuclear weapons at Faslane. It also includes debt…

SNP Scrap Two Child Cap Labour’s two-child cap is currently hitting nearly two thousand households in Falkirk and West Lothian – and almost 30,000 across Scotland. Next year, this SNP Government will scrap it, ending the harm done by Westminster and making a real difference to families.

Bus Travel Free for Under 22s The SNP’s free bus travel policy is part of a wider approach to supporting young people and helping families with the cost of living – alongside initiatives such as the Scottish Child Payment, free school meals expansion, and the Baby Box.

Childsmile: SNP Success The SNP continues to deliver bold, progressive policies that improve lives – from the Baby Box to Childsmile – while Westminster policies push more people into hardship. With independence, Scotland could go further and faster in giving every child the best start in life.

Labour’s Nuclear Plans Put Scotland at Risk The fun part of any election campaign is getting out and visiting people, at their homes, at civic events and at their businesses.

Visiting Businesses The fun part of any election campaign is getting out and visiting people, at their homes, at civic events and at their businesses.

Over 350,000 Baby Boxes Delivered The Baby Box gives every newborn in Scotland a box containing essential items worth around £429, designed to make sure every child has the best possible start in life. It’s a practical expression of our values – ensuring no baby is disadvantaged from day one and…

LABOURS SECRET TALKS WITH RATCLIFF The SNP has branded Labour’s handling of the Grangemouth refinery closure a “national disgrace” after it was revealed Chancellor Rachel Reeves met with refinery boss Sir Jim Ratcliffe just days before the doors slammed shut – and failed to even raise the crisis.

Strong Actions – Not Just Words – Desperately Needed Stephen Flynn MP has warned that strong actions, not just words, are desperately needed – otherwise the UK is “consciously and complicitly standing idly by – allowing Benjamin Netanyahu to plan, implement and inflict an ongoing genocide in Gaza.”

Free Prescriptions with the SNP It has been 14 years since the SNP Scottish Government scrapped prescription charges – saving the average household in Scotland over £400 every year.

Independence Day When I had the honour of meeting my partner’s great uncle, P. E. Narayanin, who took part in India’s freedom struggle, I asked him if he ever had any regrets about independence. His answer stayed with me: “Yes, I didn’t do enough.”

Another great day campaigning with team SNP. Scotland is the only part of the UK where poverty is falling — thanks to SNP action. The Scottish Child Payment is a real game changer, helping families and tackling child poverty. Imagine what we could do with independence.

Squeezed in an hour of campaigning before the rain hit! ☀️ Chatted, smiled, and outran the storm! 💪 #CampaignHustle Indoor activities for the rest of the weekend I think.

Hottest day of the year? A scorcher! But there’s no break from the campaign trail. Plenty of great conversations today and inspiring ideas for taking Scotland forward. Times are tough, and people are looking for real change and hope for the future.

After a year of broken promises and damaging cuts from Labour, it’s clear Westminster isn’t working for Scotland. We need the powers of independence to protect our people, our services, and choose a fairer future — built on dignity and compassion. #ScottishIndependence #SNP

Scotland’s last oil refinery at Grangemouth shut after Labour failed to keep promises to help. Now they’re changing the rules to bail out a private refinery in Lincolnshire. Why wasn’t that support offered to Scotland? We’re always an afterthought. Westminster doesn’t work for us.

Keir Starmer’s latest U-turn on disability benefits still leaves big questions unanswered. It creates a two-tier system punishing younger disabled people and those trying to return to work. Scotland’s fairer system is at risk from Westminster cuts. This isn’t just wrong — it’s dangerous.

Out campaigning in Falkirk and the message is clear: Westminster isn’t working. Now Labour is backing Tory-style disability cuts that will push thousands into poverty. Scotland shouldn’t have to choose between two parties committed to austerity. We need independence to protect our most vulnerable.
