Katherine Sangster: “We condemn the violence, and we will not tolerate this kind of abuse against members of our community.”

Racism and violence has no place here. It is contrary to the values of the vast majority of people in this city, and everything that we will stand for as your MSPs.

Too many kids and families are being let down by an education system that doesn’t work for them.

Local journalists and news providers are an invaluable part of our communities. It is vital that the Scottish Government recognises this and puts a fund in place to support this thriving industry.

These figures are deeply shocking. Far from keeping The Promise, progress for looked after children and young people is actually going in the backwards.
