@boswelltoday It would be 9 extra hours. (link here: https://t.co/90tppH8sFL) And 33% of the folk on UC are not expected to work - because of having small kids or health conditions. How could they pick up an extra couple of hours a week? — PolitiTweet.org

Boris Johnson is attempting to distract from the impending massive cut to Universal Credit by having a #Reshuffle Folk already on the breadline, across the UK, are going to be ÂŁ1000 a year worse off. This is the most important headline, not which Etonians get salary increases. — PolitiTweet.org

All of these actions make independence more likely. We will have our referendum, when it is safe to do so, and the Scottish people will have the chance to escape pernicious Westminster and the catastrophic consequences of your discriminatory decisions. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
This is yet another Power Grab. Brexit obviously was about taking back control... to Westminster. You are trying to strip the powers that Scottish people have voted for Holyrood to hold. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
You're painting this as some kind of dividend - make no mistake, we wouldn't choose to increase taxes for those earning least and try to sell it as a bonus. You've chosen NI so you can circumvent the Scottish Government (as income tax is devolved). — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
You have done these calculations on the back of a fag packet. You're pulling the Universal Credit uplift and hammering the same folk losing this cash by making them pay more tax. You've picked a way to do this that hits people earning only ÂŁ10k a year. Sunak's Poll Tax. — PolitiTweet.org

@Gordy1967 @AlanBrownSNP It's our money. They are taxing our citizens, many of whom cannot afford it. Progressive taxation, where those with higher earned and unearned income pay more, is far preferable to this broad sweep. They have chosen a very poor way to do this. — PolitiTweet.org

The UK does not have hypothecated tax. A National Insurance increase is simply a tax rise that does not affect pensioners. — PolitiTweet.org

@RC_1290 @kierongillen Subnautica is good, and it's pretty unusual for me to give survival games the time of day, but it probably is just a survival game. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
@RC_1290 @kierongillen Okay, last one I promise. What Remains of Edith Finch, Life is Strange, Oxen Free, Dear Esther, Fire Watch. All novel and interesting games to play. — PolitiTweet.org

@RC_1290 @kierongillen Among Us isn't like anything I've played before. I also really loved Immortals Fenyx Rising, and my husband loved Horizon Zero Dawn. Both new franchises, but not new genres. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
@RC_1290 @kierongillen Universal Paperclips is similarly new I think. There have been some co-op games with more interesting mechanics than previous ones - Overcooked, It takes 2, A Way Out. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
@RC_1290 @kierongillen Outer Wilds fits 'new' for me. I really enjoyed it and it felt very different to most games I have played. I loved Subnautica too, but it's basically just a survival game with lots of water - no matter how pretty and vast it is. — PolitiTweet.org

As ever, young people have used their time in the last year to help folk, even when struggling themselves. Their views and concerns must be central to decision making about the future - they will have to live with the consequences of our decisions far longer than we will. — PolitiTweet.org

All policy makers must ensure that we listen to children and young people, give credence to their views, and make decisions that help them to realise their ambitions. — PolitiTweet.org

Despite these worrying numbers, 77% of those surveyed aged 7-21 have used their time over the last year to take action and help those around them and 85% aged 11-21 want children’s and young people’s concerns to be central to government decisions about the future — PolitiTweet.org

Today @Girlguiding has released their #GirlsAttitudes survey. Over 2000 girls across the UK were asked for their views - 63% aged 7-21 say they’re happy most of time compared to 81% in 2018 - 67% aged 7-21 have felt more sad, anxious or worried than before the pandemic — PolitiTweet.org
