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.
I can announce today that we will fund the community groups, the people who are the very best of us, who are doing the hard yards to build bridges and break down barriers.
I’ve got a track record throughout my political life of working to make sure as many powers as possible are exercised here in Scotland.
Friends, we are winning. One by one, the stars are aligning in our favour.
