John Swinney: “The Scottish Prison Service is now taking practical steps to implement the consequences of that judgment.”

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.

We will back them with a new three-year £30 million Scotland Together Fund to give them the tools they need to push back the tide of racism in Scotland.

So Scotland’s a welcoming country. We want to make sure that when people come to Scotland, we can support them and that we can support them well.

Make no mistake – if we had lost the election this year, if we were out of power – then the independence cause would have been set back decades.
