There’s a lot in today’s budget, not least on energy.
✅ End of gas standing charges
✅ Direct support for households
✅ Extension of VAT cut on electricity bills
It’s essential that the Scottish government now pass support on to households across Scotland.

With global pressures pushing up costs, we're taking action to give people more breathing space.
Households in council tax bands A-D in England will receive a £100 Household Energy Payment to help with bills this winter.

My Budget today will help families with the pressures they face now.
It will back businesses and entrepreneurs, invest in Britain's future, and strengthen our national security.
A plan to get through this moment and build a stronger Britain.

Nigel Farage was given at least 10 opportunities to call out blatant racism against Kemi Badenoch today.
Why couldn't he?
This goes far beyond party politics. It's about basic decency.

100 days ago, I promised to do things differently.
From cutting everyday costs to handing power back to communities, change is already underway.
But I know there’s much more to do - this is just the beginning.

At this very moment RAF pilots stand ready to launch RAF Typhoons as quick reaction aircraft from RAF Lossiemouth. HMS Prince of Wales is in the High North keeping the UK and allies safe and MOD teams protect our nation’s cyber and digital infrastructure. I’m proud of our forces
Luke Pollard, UKG minister for defence readiness and industry, was at Navantia in Methil this morning meeting shipyard apprentices - but he accused the SNP of “doing Putin’s dirty work” when asked about John Swinney’s claim that Scottish waters are “dangerously exposed”

Rough sleeping is a thing that governments either choose to accept or don't.
This Labour Government does not believe that anyone in this country should be sleeping outside on any day of the week

Education transformed my family’s story.
Scotland's education system was once among the best in the world, and I believe it can be again. That’s what we should be aiming for.

All young people deserve support to reach their potential, whatever their background.
At FARE-Scotland in Easterhouse, local people worked with employers to build tailored routes into work. It worked.
Devolve power out from Westminster and Holyrood to local leaders who know 👇

The SNP centralise so they can control. They starve councils of money so they can control.
They block regional partnerships so they can control.
Let’s stop this nonsense and unleash the potential of our Scottish regions by empowering them.
We do that by working together.

"My message to John is simple, I want to push economic power out into the regions of Scotland, do you?"

If Scotland’s regions had grown at Manchester’s pace over the past decade, our economy would be £30bn larger.
We need to put power over skills and growth into the hands of local communities.

The SNP Scottish Government continues to short change local councils and local services. Edinburgh is hit particularly hard.
