#scotlanddemandsbetter — Public Fediverse posts

A year ago today, Scotland's biggest anti-poverty demonstration for a generation was held in Edinburgh. We want to thank everyone who supported #ScotlandDemandsBetter, and once again set out our joint vision for a just, compassionate Scotland where everyone has what they need to build a decent life.

We're getting ready for the #ScotlandDemandsBetter hustings. We want to find out how political parties plan to build a better Scotland, free from the injustice of poverty.

Not long until the @ScotGov #ScotBudget. We want to see progress on the #ScotlandDemandsBetter priorities - better jobs, better investment, better social security.

In the next @ScotGov #ScotBudget - and in #ScottishGE26 - poliltical leaders need to listen to the people. Thousands are saying #ScotlandDemandsBetter investment in the things that will build a better future for all of us.

Although tomorrow’s Scotland Demands Better march is not party-political, so there will be no party banners, there will be lots of our members joining in to show support.

Join @povertyalliance in marching for a Scotland free from poverty.
