Pride is a protest. This year, the Scottish Government must step up and ban so-called conversion therapy in Scotland. #FMQs

To fund Scotland's essential public services we need to tax the rich fairly. #fmqs

We want to deliver free childcare places for every child in Scotland from six months up.

But the Scottish Government isn't even delivering on the current commitment of funded childcare once a child turns three. #FMQs

Four Scots have been kidnapped by the Israeli military while trying to deliver lifesaving food and medical supplies to starving Palestinians as part of the Global Sumud Flotilla.

The UK government must intervene, and this genocide must be brought to an end.

Join us for First Minister’s Questions live from the Scottish Parliament in Holyrood, starting with General Questions to Ministers and followed by First Minister’s Questions.

The post appeared first on Broadcasting Scotland.

Scotland's richest 2% now have more wealth than half the population combined.

At today's #FMQs we asked the First Minister why shooting estates owned by billionaires still pay no business rates.

We’re losing millions of pounds that could go towards our schools, libraries, and hospitals.

Aristocrats shouldn't get a blank cheque while the rest of us get austerity.

Could there be a ferry from Scotland to Europe by next year?

The Scottish Greens' Mark Ruskell asked the First Minister to ensure the final hurdles are cleared. #FMQs

Climate damage already costs Scottish households an average of over £3,000 every year. Wildfires, floods, crop losses, and more, mean higher bills for us all.

Meanwhile fossil fuel multinationals rake in record profits.

Tax the polluters and invest in our future. #FMQs

If rent controls had been in place since 2019 someone renting a two-bedroom property in Lothian would now be £272 a month better off. #FMQs

An investigation by The National has revealed that even with a rent cap in place some landlords tried to break the rules.

One tried to double rent from £700 to £1400, before the regulator capped it at £784.

The SNP have now ditched the rent cap, allowing these massive hikes. #FMQs

At #FMQs today we called on the Scottish Government to back our Bill to end greyhound racing.

There are only 9 countries in the world that still allow commercial greyhound racing. In 2023 alone 109 greyhounds died trackside in the UK and 4,238 were injured.

Friendly countries do not tell lies about each other.

Leaders must stand up to the growth of disinformation and not allow it to become the norm in our politics. #FMQs

The Scottish Government's plan to scrap rent controls in April will give landlords free rein to hike rents.

At #FMQs today our co-leader Lorna Slater called on the First Minister to act. Unfortunately there was no indication in the response that he would.

This year the SNP said they would accelerate climate action. But so far that hasn't happened. #FMQs

"Does the First Minister recognise that far more is needed to make public transport cheaper, cycling safer and reduce transport emissions to protect our planet?"

Ross Greer MSP at today's #FMQs

"Words fail me - what social and cultural ties does the FM really think will benefit from a relationship with such a man?"

At today's #FMQs @patrickharvie asked John Swinney about his comments on Donald Trump.

Free School Meals are a simple and effective way to tackle child poverty and ensure every child has the best chance at school.

The SNP must use additional funds in next year's budget to reinstate the promise to deliver them for all primary school pupils.
