The Prime Minister is very welcome in Scotland and I’ll be interested to hear what he’s got to say.
In Westminster – Unionists united in their panic. 2026 has been a turning point in Scotland’s journey towards statehood, and there is no turning back.
I’m all for the Scottish Parliament having as many powers as it possibly can do, and I’ll work constructively to make sure we bring all those powers to Scotland.
And I would welcome Scotland being able to determine our approach to immigration and to asylum.
