John Swinney: “I am delighted that the SNP has won the Arbroath and Broughty Ferry by-election and that Lara Bird will take her place…”

The Prime Minister is very welcome in Scotland and I’ll be interested to hear what he’s got to say.

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.

And I would welcome Scotland being able to determine our approach to immigration and to asylum.

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.
