It would be unconscionable for us to give advice to individuals in Afghanistan that results in them being killed. We need more regular briefings and we need consistent information. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
I know it’s a difficult situation but people are contacting MPs looking for help, and if we cannot offer the right advice, because the UK Gov keeps contradicting itself, or ignoring our emails, then people in Afghanistan are in even more danger. — PolitiTweet.org

By the end of the briefing this advice seemed to have changed to “it’ll be different depending on the individual circumstances.” — PolitiTweet.org

The consular hotline also gave us differing advice to pass on to our contacts. (Eg Don’t leave the country!) Today we were told again, verbally, to advise people to leave the country. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
Last week a Cabinet Secretary told us we should be advising constituents and their contacts in Afghanistan to either wait for evacuation or to leave Afghanistan to a third country. On Friday we received an email that seemed to contradict this, co-signed by three Cabinet Secs. — PolitiTweet.org

The already horrendous situation in Afghanistan has been made more difficult for MPs and our caseworkers by the actions of some UK Govt ministers. — PolitiTweet.org

Update on gas supply issues in Manor Drive. Tl;dr call them if you need to borrow electric appliances, I don’t know what’s happening with road closures but best just avoid Haudagain entirely til roads are reopened. https://t.co/y5PFWjwFG6 — PolitiTweet.org

I am super excited to tell my daughter than a young woman from Aberdeen has won a medal. — PolitiTweet.org

Massive congratulations to Aberdeen paralympian @tonishaw_x on her bronze medal in the 400m freestyle this morning 🥉 What a stunning achievement. Well done, Toni! — PolitiTweet.org

This may be the day, after 6 months of my printer saying "supplies are low" that it finally runs out of ink. — PolitiTweet.org

And I've been putting off reading the Subsidy Control Bill, so that needs to reach the top of my to-do list some point soon too. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
Today will involve catching up with some casework. I'll be meeting some other local reps to talk about what's happening in and around Aberdeen. I'll also be working with my staff on assisting Afghan constituents and their relatives who are still in danger in Afghanistan. — PolitiTweet.org

@MareeToddMSP @GirlchampJinty @kellylgiven @scotgov ADHD and autism, please! Often a very different presentation in women and girls. Also I understand queer menopause can be quite different and SNHS needs to give this more recognition and attention. — PolitiTweet.org

This is something I have been lobbying for in response to local concerns, particularly raised by No Recourse North East and in my mailbag. So delighted to see this in the agreement. Destitution is completely unacceptable. https://t.co/ctOAQW60eU — PolitiTweet.org

All my fingers and toes are crossed for this result. Jenny is such an amazing local campaigner already - everyone I spoke to seemed to know her and the work she's put in to protecting and improving her community. — PolitiTweet.org

Across to Balmedie this afternoon, talking to supporters and encouraging everyone to go and vote. Great to see so… https://t.co/Pgt6oCOXXr

We have a pro-indy majority, we will have our independence and gain the levers to make our own decisions in all matters. Until that day, we will do the very best we can with the powers we have, and in many areas the Scottish Greens are pointing the same direction as we are. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
But I believe this deal is a good one. I believe it is the right thing to do. Tackling climate change, Covid recovery, and tackling inequality must be Scotland's key priorities, and this deal allows the Scottish Government to focus on these. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
The transition to a low carbon future cannot be allowed to further increase inequality. We must keep high quality jobs. Aberdeen must not lose out. All your local @theSNP MPs and MSPs are fully committed to supporting the NE and are making our voices heard at every opportunity. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
We must plan for losing oil. We've seen the price crash and stay low in the last few years. We've seen redundancies. Scot Gov't have put in place transition training fund, PACE support, young person's guarantee. But we need more commitment and more support from UK Gov. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
We didn't plan for finding oil and for the change this would cause to Aberdeen. The UK Gov't didn't create an oil fund to support us. They failed at ensuring all in Aberdeen benefited from the oil bonanza. Inequality soared. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
This deal means we can focus on preserving the planet and on ensuring that transition happens for Aberdeen. We must reduce our carbon footprint, but we cannot leave Aberdeen high and dry. No transition like this has ever been planned for. — PolitiTweet.org
Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP
Tackling climate change is also imperative. We must slow the damage so we are able to pass the planet to our children, and so our children can pass it to theirs. A big reduction in oil use has to come more quickly than we planned for even a decade ago. — PolitiTweet.org
